Shalom Retreat Leadership Training (SRLT) is for people interested in, and who have a gift for leadership of Shalom Retreats. The SRLT’s intention is to develop excellence in Shalom process leadership and to build a group of skilled leaders to carry this work into a growing number of settings. SRLT will focus on deepening your theoretical understanding, honing your therapeutic skills and developing more presence as a leader. In addition, each participant will receive one-on-one supervision. Open to graduates of previous SRLT or SLT who are interested in continuing to develop their skills. Screening interview required
Start: 4:00 pm
End: 8:00 pm

We are exquisitely designed for movement with a capacity for ease, flexibility, power and expressiveness, whether we are dancing, singing or working at a computer. All too often, however, we unwittingly interfere with this design resulting in tension, effort, and fatigue. Diana Bradley, a skilled practitioner, will lead us in explorations in the discoveries of the F.M. Alexander Technique to restore our natural coordination and poise.

Wear comfortable clothes, bring a beginner's mind, and be willing to question, and perhaps release old myths about moving with "good posture."  We will explore ease in sitting, walking, standing, bending, yoga, meditation, and anything else you love doing in your lives. Through verbal coaching and gentle hands-on guidance you will gain heightened kinesthetic awareness and a sense of belonging in your body.

The Shalom Retreat™ is an intensive growth experience set in a loving and supportive community. Shalom Retreats are based on our understanding of love. More than anything else, we want to love and be loved. Love is a gift. Love is not time bound. Love is good will in action. Love is a response to need. Loving is an art. The skills of loving can be learned. They include seeing and hearing another, expressing good will, recognizing another’s right to think and feel as he/she does, and being fully present in our relationships with others. Through the practice of intentional loving, open space is created in which individuals can learn to express themselves with integrity, creativity and passion. Our ability to love and our life force can be blocked by unexpressed feelings of anger, fear and pain. By unblocking energy, we are able to reclaim our joy, passion and sexuality and to fully embody the Divine in our lives. A variety of techniques (e.g., guided fantasy, primal therapy, role-play, gestalt and bioenergetics) are used as a means for releasing and transforming repressed emotions, so that one’s passion for life may be fully realized.
