Brave Spaces – a Circle series for girls 11-15
SUNDAY 9 MAY I 16 MAY I 30 MAY I 6 JUNE FROM 3pm PLUS AN INTEGRATION EXPERIENCE 23 MAY
Adolescence is a huge time of change and growth. It is the period of life reserved for rebellion and self-discovery, but as the demands in life increase for teens, this time is often fraught with confusion, insecurity and uncertainty. For many these challenges lead to disconnection and isolation.
The Brave Spaces Circle series is designed for girls aged 11-15 years and provides an opportunity to pause, play, be seen, heard and held as they build friendships with likeminded sisters as they discover and embrace their uniqueness and begin to navigate their journey to womanhood.
The series is a mix of CIRCLE, WORKSHOP, JOURNALING, BREATHWORK, MINDFULNESS AND MOVEMENT and will also include the participation of the girls’ feminine role model at the start, middle and end of the series.
Brave Spaces is built on foundations of the strength and power of the feminine experience and is a place where girls can:
- gather to connect, share, learn, laugh and be heard
- explore what it is to be confident, and have the courage to be true to oneself
- develop skills to build a world where acceptance, equality and uniqueness is celebrated and to stand beside and raise each other up.
Expertly and gently guided by Giselle Perry (founder of Sofia Women’s Circle, Level 2 Sister Circle Facilitator and experienced human resources professional) and Melissa Cherie (Self Love Sisterhood founder, Level 1 Sister Circle Facilitator and nutritionist) in the tranquil surrounds of Nourished Yoga Studio in Terrey Hills this bespoke series will explore aspects of self and the minefield of growing up as a girl in our very complex, competitive and complicated society.The Brave Spaces series is a collaboration between your young woman, yourself and our facilitators – we have deliberately designed the Circle Series as an inclusive immersion not only for the young women who attend but also their feminine role model – YOU! We know it will be a special time out of the usual 3D world to enhance and add layers to your relationship with each other.
