„What do you do when confronted by fear? Do you expose yourself to it or do you avoid it? Do you overcome the uncomfortable short-term feeling it brings to be exposed or do you turn your back to it and eventually put yourself in a prison of avoidance? As a youth worker, do you ever notice how you project your own fears to the young people you are working with, thus taking the learning away from them?
Fear less
Courage doesn’t mean that you aren’t afraid. Fearless means just that – Fear less. Acknowledge that you are frightened, and take action anyway! Face your anxiety and go beyond the boundaries of your limited perceptions of yourself.
Fear(less) is a training course on discovering how overcoming our limits can bring powerful learning outcomes. Our goal is to empower youth workers, youth leaders and educators to become better leaders of their communities by mastering self-confidence, and to educate them on non-formal education programs based on overcoming fears.
Our main methods used include high-rope activities, living in tribes, guided awareness practices, body movement and dance performances, physical challenges, public speaking and spending time alone with no outside distractions – all of them (and much more!) put together to create a rich, diverse arena for personal discoveries and releasing what no longer serves you.
