Weekend intensives
Concentrated experiential training for educators, mental health professionals and parents who need practical tools quickly.
Train with us
Calibrating a culture of calm.
Our experiential professional development helps educators move beyond simply knowing SEL strategies toward understanding how and when to use them in real classrooms.
Educators experience the practices themselves before considering how to use them with students.

Calibrating a Culture of Calm — Volume 1
This isn't a new SEL system.
- This isn't another set of facts to memorize or forget.
- This is an immersive experience in understanding stress and learning.
- This is not a PD designed to tell you things you already know how to do.
In fact, you're probably doing most of it already.
The four-part series is evidence-informed mindful science and practices that work alongside current SEL models: more buy-in without screens, emotional support for teachers, and connection to students and families. Get immersed and feel confident building a courageous and emotionally intelligent classroom.

Take the Trash Out Before You Crash Out
Strategies + shifting from awareness to practical integration
Self-care strategies and science to address the burnout that shows up in teaching and classroom management. How do we care for ourselves as educators while modeling and sharing mindful awareness? Is building a meditation practice even possible? We will find out.

Kindness is Courageous
Relationships + boundaries + compassion + repair
Explore the Warm Demander model as a research-informed lens for supporting resilience, emotional regulation and strong boundaries. Strong boundaries are rooted in kindness, respect and accountability, and mindfulness is the key to holding all three at once.

I. AM. O.K.
