Training Course
10-18 May 2024 | Murzasichle, Poland
24 youth workers and 2 trainers will meet between 10th and 18th of May 2024 in Murzasichle to develop their competencies in methodology for empowering youth through improvisation theater and mindfulness. Participants will learn principles of improvisation theater, mindfulness techniques and will try to connect those two approaches for youth empowerment.
They will have dedicated yoga activities in the mornings and meditation practices in the evenings.
We created the project to encourage thinking out of the box in terms of creating and developing the methodology for youth work and more holistic approach for the educational activities. Our team is a big fan of improv methodology and we realized that there is plenty of space for mindfulness in terms of being at the moment in the space with the other actors.
Methodology - improv
Improv is a theater approach where actors develop scenes without a script. Actors are developing the scene based on accepting what is happening around, taking care of the partner and being involved more and more in the action. This background of the improv is a great base to teach about active citizenship and empower youth to take their chance and develop their ideas in real life. Moreover, improvisation activities develop soft skills and attitudes like verbal and non verbal communication, team work, public speaking, self confidence, self esteem, flexibility, adaptation to changing situation, not giving up after failure.
Methodology - mindfulness
Mindfulness is the practice of paying attention to the present moment without judgment. In the context of the training, mindfulness is used to help youth workers develop self-awareness, reduce stress and anxiety, and improve focus and concentration. Participants learn different mindfulness techniques such as meditation, breathing exercises, and body awareness exercises.
