CONNECTION  KINDNESS  AUTHENTICITY

It's really possible to experience Connected Communication with others through a blend of authenticity and kindness. To listen with empathy, to be honest about what's going on for you, and to find ways of communicating and interacting that enrich your lives.

​

And it's possible to do this in a way that strengthens your relationships, leading from tension and conflict to understanding and connection.

We'll show you how.

We send out updates on our offerings once or twice a month.

Newt Bailey

Founder of Communication Dojo

Newt’s passion is to help people connect, to experience greater intimacy, and to find the potential for mutually satisfying change that lies within conflict. He is also convinced that personal growth and change in consciousness is essential if we’re to bring about the changes we want to see in our communities and our world.
 

Since he started studying Nonviolent Communication (NVC) in 2005 Newt has set out to understand and share with others the essential core of NVC. He believes strongly in teaching the principles of NVC in a way that frees students from specialized language, and allows facility with connected communication to grow in small, quickly assimilated steps. 

Since 2006 Newt has been facilitating NVC groups, leading workshops and retreats, and developing his unique approach in public and organizational settings. Newt also attributes great steps in his personal understanding of NVC to working with prisoners and parolees. He has taught NVC, NVC mediation and NVC coaching across the USA and in Europe.

Communication Dojo

The Communication Dojo is where Newt teaches the NVC / Connected Communication practices, skills and awareness he uses in his own life, and also where Newt introduces his newest teaching tools, resources and ideas.

Workshops take place in San Francisco, California and online.
