How did you learn about Art of Hosting (please add the date and place) and what attracted you to it?
I have been aware of the community for some time and recently attended a training with Chris Corrigan, following on from this I attended a 4 day art of hosting training in Karlskrona Sweden.

Hi Pauline!

I am looking for ways to create more practice spaces (while also trying to ensure I do remunerative work!).  Our next AoH in Switzerland is in March of next year and we already have a waiting list of Apprentices.  We don't really do apprentices as we have sought to attract people and teams from organisations and are increasingly doing so.  Our team meets for almost a year online os that by the time we enter the design stages before the event, we already have quite a deep alignment.  However, that doesn't allow for apprenticing.  I am wondering if there could be a call for Art of Hosting Apprentices - in which we design, hold and experience a session with mostly apprentices.  This would allow us to debrief every session too, which currently rarely happens...

Otherwise, best bet is to go to artofhosting.org and look up upcoming events and contact the hosting team...

Hello, Pauline, and welcome to the Art of Hosting community! Glad to see you here. Post a photo when you can so we can really "see" you here. Then join in with all the conversations. You'll find plenty of resources here, too, to help you deepen your practice. And the more you add to your profile, the more the community can learn from you and share with you. We hope you will find value in exchanging in this virtual community!
