We involve experts from a variety of backgrounds,and exploit their unique set ofproven skills to enrich the experience. Our experts will meet our participants halfway, never talking down to them but treating them like adults, yet keepingthe process simple enough to be understood. Experiential learning is the driving force behind this program.While the real world rarely forgives failure, the program setting encourages the exploration of ingenious solutions in a playful and non-threatening manner without fear of failure or ridicule.The program includes a variety of sessions planned around specific key activities in order to examine and share common reactions, insights, and emotions such as joy, fear, fatigue, compassion, and love. Each activity poses a series of challenges that call for creativity, lateral thinking and physical effort. Attempting and succeeding in these activities stimulates self-worth and fills the participants with a feeling of triumph and the belief that seemingly impossible situations are in fact quite possible.
