Sophia van Ruth's Groups

How did you learn about Art of Hosting (please add the date and place) and what attracted you to it?: Through various sources. Perhaps first at Schumacher College in Devon in 2008. I am also a member of the Hub Rotterdam. Many hubbers have done AoH trainings.

Tell us about your experience with Art of Hosting as part of your life and work. What would you say your competence in it is? (new, starting practitioner, experienced practitioner, steward): I would say that I am an experienced practitioner in the field of participatory practices. I worked for 10 years in community engagement in Australia. Some of the processes that AoH uses I am not so experienced in, this is one of the reasons I was attracted to the training.

What is the primary field/topic/focus in your hosting work?: I am passionate about complex systems science and embodied practice. I am interested in processes that build our capacity for 'systems sensing'.

Are there interests/passions that you'd like to share?: Complex dynamics, embodied practice, dance, improvisation, zen shiatsu, edible gardens, forest gardens, InterPlay
