A training for group leaders, teachers and youth workers who would like to learn how to use the arts as a facilitation tool.

Do you work with groups of young people or adults? Are you looking for new, creative ways to engage your groups? Do you simply want to boost your own creativity and learn more about using arts-based techniques to create engaging programs, workshops and group sessions?

LIFEbeat offers professional trainings for group leaders from all sectors and industries. All of our workshops stand alone and are suitable for anyone looking to improve their facilitation skills. Whether you work with youth or adults, in schools or in private practice, training with LIFEbeat will teach you skills and give you a practical toolbox to make group sessions more fun and engaging.

2-day Experiential Workshop Training in Group Facilitation and Community Building using the Arts

“Imagine leading groups infused with participation and excitement, where people take creative risks and connect from the heart. Imagine programmes, classrooms, and workshops where students are eager to learn, brimming with energy and enthusiasm. Picture yourself feeling creative and grounded in your work, enjoying yourself to the fullest...”

LIFEbeat's weekend workshop combines a deep understanding of group process with a keen awareness of the role that creative expression plays in bringing individuals and groups alive:

explore your relationship to your own creativity

learn how to build safe learning environments

learn arts-based activities that enliven learning and build group trust

explore ways to weave a variety of art forms into a programme

have lots of fun!

Our work is based on the belief that everyone is creative and that you don’t have to be a professional artist to use creative practice to powerful effect in your work.

LIFEbeat’s Creative Practice Training is an excellent CPD opportunity for teachers, youth workers, therapists, social artists, workshop facilitators... and is open to adults of all ages.

You will gain skills and insight into the practice of group facilitation and walk away with a toolbox of easy-to-lead activities.

TESTIMONIES:

“I was able to use the lessons I learned directly in my classroom on my return. It was great: the children responded brilliantly to the exercises and, delightfully for me, my class that day happened to be assessed and was rated Outstanding.”
