Dear friends,
Here at Next Step integral we believe that Integral Education is one of the most pertinent and practical means to create positive change in ourselves and the world. This is why we invite you to join us for a 5-day seminar in an incredibly beautiful setting with educators from around the globe -- teachers, coaches, workshop leaders, parents and professors who are seeking the necessary vision, skills, and processes to fully serve their students, children, and the world we inhabit. Those who have attended this seminar over the years have been deeply transformed and inspired by the experience, and this year promises to be another outstanding event. Please consider joining us and bringing your experience, curiosity and presence as we explore the leading edge of educational theory and practice!

We invite you to join us to discuss and experience Integral Education -- an emerging field that is being propelled by people who seek to include the best of current educational approaches, while at the same time transcending these approaches and pushing the envelope of what education can be. This seminar is for all students of life, whether they be faculty members, administrators, adult educators, parents, or students, who hold education as an important part of their life's purpose and context for personal evolution.
Seminar goals:
* Apply the integral framework to education, both theoretically and practically;
* Share real-life experiences of working in the world as an integral educator;
* Provide an experience of integral education in the seminar itself;
* Offer ample opportunities for personal and professional self-reflection and development;
* Articulate teaching perspectives and generate effective next steps that each of us can bring home and build upon in our day-to-day work as teachers, parents and learners;
* Come together in a community of fellow seekers and integral education practitioners;
* Have fun, rejuvenate and soak in the inspiring environment of beautiful Whidbey Institute!
We hope that you will be able to join us for what promises to be an outstanding event!
Sincerely,
Stephan Martineau
