You will learn how to facilitate, and have an opportunity to do your own work on the carpet 

Purpose

• To develop understanding of the NWTA, rites of passage, and the place of Guts in the weekend.

• To provide a basic understanding of shadow and archetypes, and how we work with these on the carpet.

• To develop an understanding of the Guts Process, and to guide men as to how to facilitate a process from beginning to end.

• To provide practice and experience in leading and supporting Guts Processes.

Within this Facilitation Training you will learn

• How to deliver all the Guts processes. 

• How to facilitate a Participant in his carpet process from beginning to end.  

• A thorough understanding of the Archetypes MKP uses and how to use these archetypes in Facilitation. 

• How to work with trauma.  

• How to keep the participant safe during their process. 

We will be running live processes, with time outs and freeze frames. Participants will be running processes from the beginning to the end with Hugh as mentor and trainer offering best practice options.

Debrief & Feedback - At the end of each process we will thoroughly debrief the whole process, and examine how the facilitators managed the process.

This training is targeted at men with 3 + NWTA Staffings who wish to facilitate on the carpet on a NWTA. It is geared to help men become expert in and skilled at facilitating the processes we use in Guts.

This training is non-residential and you will be asked to bring your own food to share

From previous participants:

 "I have staffed quite a few NWTA's since my initiation and always got stuck during GUTS. I read the protocols, watched experienced men and stepped up to open the main up but always seemed to get lost in the process. I recently did the Level 1 GUTS training and have just completed my first NWTA since being trained in GUTS and found my own confidence in my facilitation skills has been transformed. The training gave me an understanding of the process on an experiential level and a solid framework of the GUTS process. My main takeaway was understanding the steps and allowing the man to guide you. It really helped me to step through and let go of the uncertainty of having to know what to do. It gave me a solid foundation and confidence and I recommend that any man seeking to learn facilitation skills consider doing this training.  You will not get this level of understanding by just doing NWTA's." - Richard Muir - Water Rabbit

“I had attended a good number of guts and carpet facilitation training courses/days before I went to the first UK&I Guts Level 1 Training with Hugh Newton in May 2023.  12 men circled up and formed a beautiful container and learned and worked with a good deal of social interaction and fun around the edges.  We learned and held men in nearly all the processes seen on an NWTA and IMJ as good as all the processes that I have seen in 5 years with active I-Groups with skilled and experienced facilitators.  Hugh is a gentle, flexible and Sovereign trainer who taught and then coached as we go stuck into guts from both sides.  Whilst Hugh stepped in with learning points - working in pairs everyman started and finished facilitating a whole process and most men worked.  For £165 and only 2 days and a bit - this is a massive return on time and money investment and allows a man to sign up for Guts Level 2 training which I will attend as soon as I can.  I commend this course to the men of our community and, for any man thinking about it and wavering - I say:  Go for it …. What’s at risk …?  As an additional bonus on the course - I even had a name change!” - Tom Daniel - Boogying Strong Horse

Hugh Newton was head of training at A Band of Brothers for 7 years and is an experienced NWTA Co-Leader with many years of experience in facilitation.
