NEW TRAINING CYCLE: 16-18 September 2022!

The “Rolando Toro” Biodanza School in Vicenza represents a strong opportunity

to undertake a path of personal growth and offers suitable training

to exercise the profession of Biodanza operator .

The School follows  the unique program of the Rolando Toro Schools System and is authorized by the International Biocentric Foundation , a foundation that coordinates the activity

and the methodology of all the Biodanza schools in the world.

The training offer is divided into 32 workshops (monthly) on specific topics (experiential and theoretical), as well as conferences, seminars and study groups.

The training cycle lasts four years and qualifies, with the passing of an internship

and with the preparation of a monograph, with the title of Biodanza operator.

The strong pedagogical impact, combined with the vastness of the topics covered in the course, means that the School represents in the first place an opportunity for "self-knowledge" and a path of personal growth and development,

reason why it is possible to attend it as auditors until the end of the second school year.

The School has also always invested its own teaching resources to disseminate the social use of Biodanza pedagogy, which translates into some specific training institutes in Vicenza:

  1. Self-managed study group on a monthly basis

  2. Working library with loan service

  3. Pre-apprenticeship protocol  (free participation in weekly courses for training purposes)

  4. Profession training protocol

SUTRA DI CASA FELICE - Centro Gaja Scuola Biodanza Centro Gaja

Biocentric school of life

 

The term sutra derives from the Sanskrit सूत्र, sūtra (in pāli sutta) which literally means "thread" (from the Indo-European root syū, the same as the Latin suere, "to sew", and in its original sense indicates a "short phrase", a " aphorism ”which generates an orientation for life.

 

These are the guidelines that guide our common steps in co-creating the Scuola di Biodanza project:

1. Our deepest intent and greatest dream is to come together in this collective place to fuel the growth of consciousness, the presence and amplification of vision, to return to being HUMAN BEINGS TOGETHER.

2-You are WELCOME HERE. YOUR PRESENCE GUIDES THE CHANGE.

3-Casa Felice is a space for each and everyone

Here you are not a guest, here you ARE at your home. Tourists, consumers and energy vampires are not welcome here, but RESEARCHERS AND TRAVELERS are very welcome. When you travel together and are daily active and in contact, you co-create the journey: Do you really want to be part of this? You still have time to go back.

4-A Casa Felice is a space of PRESENCE. YOU ARE CALLED TO BE CONSCIOUS AND RESPONSIBLE, to live constantly in the HERE AND NOW. This is a project for your evolution. of me (Rolando Toro).

5-At Casa Felice the techniques of personal growth translate into a true lifestyle. We embrace Biodanza as a message, as a style and school of life, NOT AS PRACTICE. Practices separated from life produce dissociation and separation from reality.

The mission of the SCHOOL OF LIFE (growth in presence) is generated in community, in collective intelligence.

All the gestures of coexistence and re-tribalization are highly revealing of our individual and community evolutionary state, and we look at them as "the supremely important": starting from the parking of the car, the common care of the room, the knowledge of what is available in the kitchen, the cleaning and disposal of waste that we all produce, everything is the mirror and at the service of our evolution

6- The time, the form, the order you bring to Casa Felice are the mirror of your spiritual evolution and of what you want for your life

Parking: at Casa Felice there are 4 parking spaces.

We recommend that you leave your car in the large free car park at the beginning of via Paoloni and enjoy the life-giving walk for a few minutes. We ask NOT to park on our neighbors' properties, nor along the road.

Time is entering space in advance and calmly, GIVING A GIFT TO YOURSELF by deciding to feel free from the trappings of life;

 

Form is taking care. Casa Felice will never ask for compensation in money for objects (plates, glasses, crockery, etc.) inadvertently broken during our cohabitation, but will ask, for each broken or lost object, the equivalent DONATO as a symbol of assumption of responsibility and circularity of the gift.

Order is the quality of coexistence and community organization because this space will continue to grow through the productive presence of each and every one.

  4. A Casa Felice is a space of PRESENCE. YOU ARE CALLED TO BE CONSCIOUS AND RESPONSIBLE, to live constantly in the HERE AND NOW. This is a project for your evolution (LET'S REALIZE WHAT'S HAPPENING HERE, BESIDE YOU, LET'S REALIZE WHAT WE THINK, SAY, FEEL AND DO AT ALL TIMES. Only in this way can I truly meet the other and get news of me (Rolando Toro);

  5. At Casa Felice, personal growth techniques translate into a true lifestyle. We embrace Biodanza as a message, as a style and school of life, NOT AS A PRACTICE.
