PROJECTS UPDATE - OCTOBER 2011
FILMING THE NVC DANCE FLOORS
We're delighted with the 9 hours of material we have on film from our 4 days of filming in August. I was deeply touched and amazed how many people were involved - about 50 people - freely giving so much support and time to enable all this to happen.
Now for the editing! And more fund-raising......We're still very eager for your financial participation!
Donate 20 GBP / 23 Euros / 33 USD (or more) now and receive the DVD of your choice (worth 25 GBP) in Spring 2012.
Also we would LOVE some huge donations.
Our target is 4500 GBP / 5000 Euros / 7000 USD.
So far we have received 850 GBP / 1000 Euros / 1300 USD (Thank you everyone!)

THE MUSICAL!
Jane Wheeler and I are excited to be piloting our 'NVC-message' musical in a primary school in east London in October/November. We'll find out how our plot and our songs work on stage and adjust the dialogue according to input from the students (ages 9-11). We hope to publish it in 2012, for use by anyone anywhere. Watch this space!
PROJECTS UPDATE - JULY 2011
THE FILM: Making a set of instructional films of the NVC Dance Floors
For years Gina Lawrie and I have felt that film would be a great way to share the know-how of the Dance Floors much more widely and effectively, and we've been looking for a way to make this happen. Through meeting Elkie Deadman this 'way' has now appeared! Thanks to Elkie's support, expertise, network, facilities and generosity, and to film-maker Sander van Gaalen, we are able to make the films to professional standards.
We're making a short intro film, and three 1 hour films, to share three Dance Floors in depth (13 Step Dance, Self Empathy Dance, Anger Dance). If all goes well, we'll make films of the other Dance Floors in 2012.
We're filming in August in The Netherlands on a budget of 'lots of love and very little money'.
We do need some 'starting capital' - and we would love your financial participation and support.
We invite you to donate 20 GBP / 23 Euros / 33 USD (or more) now and receive the DVD of your choice (worth 25 GBP) in Spring 2012.
Also we would LOVE some really huge donations, e.g. 100 GBP, 500 GBP, or our entire 'starting' amount of 4500 GBP / 5000 Euros / 7000 USD!

ONLINE COACHING ON THE DANCE FLOORS: Developing an online interactive way of coaching people on the NVC Dance Floors
This is a great break-through - something Gina Lawrie and I have envisioned but not known how to achieve.
Thanks to Pauline Dirksens' initiative and collaboration, we'll be ready to pilot this system from September.
>> I'll be offering coached online Dance Floor sessions for individuals, and possibly for groups.

THE MUSICAL: Writing a musical for 9-12 year olds
I am co-creating this musical with Jane Wheeler (my colleague from the 'Connect with Respect' project).
Our aim is to convey the paradigm shift of NVC on stage.
We'll create backing tracks and directions so that any (non-specialist) teacher (or youth group leader, or NVC camp leader, or...you!?) can put it on with a group of children.
We are excited to be piloting the musical in a primary school in east London in October/November.
We hope to publish it in 2012, for use by anyone anywhere.
