Listen up! Have you ever noticed you tune out sometimes when others are talking to you? Do you think about what you’re going to say in response instead of fully listening? Do you interrupt people when they’re speaking? We all know how to listen and hold a conversation, but do you know how to actively listen with your full attention, tuning in to a person's emotions and body language.
Active listening is a crucial skill in our personal and professional lives, it can also help you to be less self-conscious and anxious in social interactions and form greater connections with those around you.
Whatever your background, this workshop is designed to improve your listening skills. Through fun and creative Improvisation, theatre and storytelling exercises, we will work on giving our focus to others, making those around us feel heard, at work and in our own lives. There will also be a strong focus on play and exploration which will add an exciting element to our learning
Location: Rocas Bar, 33 Rue des Capucins, 1313 Ville-Haute Luxembourg. The bar will be open & they also serve meat or cheese snacking plates.
