THE ART OF BEING HUMAN: LEVEL 1
Course leader: Pauline Drews (Authentic Relating International)
Assistent Course Leader: Wies Heiner (Be Touched Community)

Activate and expand your relational capacities to radically transform all your relationships and experience connection, intimacy, trust, and aliveness with anyone, anytime, anywhere.
Our flagship Authentic Relating Course has introduced the foundational tools and skills of this life changing practice to thousands of people around the world. The course is designed to make the learning of authentic relating as accessible, adoptable, practical, and engaging as possible, so that graduates can apply their new skills to their lives right away with immediate results.

We’ve designed this course to give you the experience of profound connection, intimacy, trust, and aliveness with anyone you want, anytime, anywhere – all within just two days (or six weeks for our online course). The tools and skills we teach work across all social contexts, from the workplace to the living room, from strangers to partners and everyone in between.

Our experienced Course Leaders expertly guide you through a curriculum that strongly emphasizes embodied and experiential learning. This is not a lecture or seminar – it is a deep dive full-immersion training that will leave you enlivened, heart and mind-opened, and deeply connected to yourself and others.

Level 1 In-Person Course
Expert ART Course Leaders bring their years of experience and training to guide participants through a sequence of teachings, exercises, and group shares to support a deep embodiment of the tools and skills. The course blends a rigorous training with space to connect and lean into the edge of authentic expression, received and witnessed by others. We’ve constructed the exercises to ensure that the skills and tools can be learned and applied by anyone, no matter their prior experience or life path. There is no fancy language or hard to grasp concepts – the curriculum is simple to follow yet powerful in its application.

Both days begin at 10am and end roughly at 8pm, with a 90 minute lunch break in the early afternoon, and include breaks throughout the day.
