This half-day practical workshop will introduce the RAD’s Seated Swans resources. The resources have been created to give Silver Swans Licensees examples of appropriate exercises which can be adapted and made relevant for Licensee’s individual learners.
This workshop will give Licensee’s an opportunity to work through the exercises in analytical detail for the purpose of preparing them to deliver the exercises to their own Silver Swans, if they so choose. The content can be tailored to fit the needs of each Silver Swans class, based on Licensee’s knowledge of their Silver Swans. Participants will have an opportunity to create content which can be shared and explored with peer discussion and feedback.
This workshop is for active Silver Swans Licensees only.
Duration: 3 hours
