A yarning circle is a culturally respectful practice used for centuries by Indigenous peoples around the world. It encourages open and honest conversations in a safe space where everyone is heard, fostering trust, mutual respect, and deeper connections.
This training is designed for non-Indigenous people who are interested in learning more about First Nations cultures, values, and communication practices. It is ideal for teams, leaders, and individuals wanting to build stronger, more respectful workplace relationships.
The training runs for 90 minutes and is delivered online in an interactive format. It is limited to 20 participants to ensure a meaningful and inclusive experience.
What will I learn from attending?
By the end of the session, participants will:
- Understand how storytelling fosters empathy, courage, and respect.
- Recognise how community and family stories shape identity and values.
- Learn how engagement with stories supports deeper learning.
- Appreciate the importance of stories in guiding us through life.
- Explore how connecting personal stories with others develops strengths and motivation.
Yarning circles create a safe and supportive environment where everyone can contribute equally. This helps build trust, encourages open dialogue, strengthens team relationships, and supports more collaborative and inclusive workplaces.
The training can be delivered online or in person, depending on your preference and requirements.
Each session is designed for up to 20 participants to ensure meaningful interaction and genuine dialogue among the group.
