Sensethinking is how you are meant to learn:
by engaging your intuition (right-brain knowing) as a partner and guide to your intellect (left-brain thinking).
Any pedagogy that does not engage both right and left-brain knowing can only scratch the surface of what's possible in teaching and learning.
Once you understand this for yourself, you will be able to share it with your children and students.
These courses will introduce you to specific Sensethinking practices that are simple, accessible, and highly effective. They are also lots of fun!
"Aitabé’s approach opens pathways that conventional education often overlooks. Rather than relying on linear analysis, it invites rhythm, resonance, self-knowledge, and intuition. I’ve seen participants engage with ideas not as problems to solve, but as patterns to inhabit and feel. In those moments, a deeper kind of understanding becomes possible — one that includes the felt, the seen, the unspoken, and the overlooked."
- Christos Galanis, PhD

Permission, Boundaries, and Your Child's Will
ONLINE
Mon, Aug 11, Tue and Thu, Aug 12 & 14
10am - 12pm ET Each Day
$147 USD suggested / Pay From the Heart
The goal of this class is to give you a direct experience of what your child is experiencing on the inside, so that you can understand the behaviors you see on the outside.
Perhaps you have a "willful" child. Maybe they are easy going at school, but intense and challenging at home. Or maybe you worry that they are too much of a pushover, saying yes when they mean no.
Underneath these dynamics is the pulse of your child's will. Their will (and yours) is the center of their innate and sensitive relationship-sensing system in which their desires and impulses respond to the people and dynamics around them.
Take this course if you want to:
Understand the nature of your child's will and the relationship dynamics they are responding to.
Support your child to have an attuned inner guidance system.
Gain insight into the harmony of boundaries and permissiveness in parenting.
This is not a "parenting advice" workshop. You will use Sensethinking Inquiry to tap into and directly source your family system for information and guidance.
Sensethinking Open Inquiry
Sensethinking Open Inquiry
A powerful and empowering practice for collective sense-making.

$147 USD suggested / Pay From the Heart
The goal of this class is to give you the experience of how powerful a "group discussion" can be when you engage both intuition and intellect.
Empowerment, greater insight and understanding, and surprising pathways to new solutions: this is what becomes possible when a group of people engage their heart+mind to inquire into questions that matter to them. Sensethinking Open Inquiry is the core practice of Sensethinking pedagogy.
Open to all, this course is especially valuable for teacher/facilitators who want to transform group discussion into something far more profound and impactful.
Take this course if you want to:
Understand how to turn a question into a rich, immersive heart+mind inquiry.
Experience the complex, dynamic aliveness - the true nature - of information.
Tap into coherence - the natural movement of a system into greater harmony.
We meet for one hour on Monday to give us time to meet each other, decide on our inquiry, and get an introduction to the practices. We then take a deep dive during our 2-hour classes on Tuesday and Thursday.

Are These Courses For You?
Are These Courses For You?
You will love these courses if:
You are a parent who wants to support your child's full capacity as a joyful learner.
You feel protective and nurturing of your child's unique expression in this noisy world.
You feel concerned about the impact of school on your child's creativity.
You may be seeking the confidence to explore unschooling or other alternatives to traditional education.
These courses will help you recognize your child's innate gifts because they will introduce you to your own. They will help you see that their heart+mind intelligence (like yours) is already powerful and whole, and can never be extinguished; it just needs to be engaged. You will experience a set of simple, powerful practices that do just that.
You are an educator who has an intuitive sense that much more is possible for yourself, your students, and the world.
You experience a persistent call to use your gifts in a new way.
You are ready to be a bridge-builder from old ways of knowing to new.
You likely already have access to your intuitive gifts, but would like to understand their role in education.
These courses will affirm for you how remarkable your heart+mind intelligence is. They will give you the confidence you need to trust that your creativity, presence, and ability to create a nurturing container for your students are far more important than any set of facts or ideas that you teach. And you will experience a whole new set of practices that can provide your students greater engagement, personal meaning, original insight, deeper understanding, and a joyful sense of connection with their peers.
You are an independent thinker with a desire to enrich the curiosity of your mind with the sensitivity of your heart.
Would you like to go deeper into the subjects that fascinate you?
Do you have questions about topics that are still mysteries to science and academia?
Would you like to have a process for unlocking these mysteries and creating new pathways of exploration?
You are in the right place. You will be blown away by how much information you have access to when you open to the knowing of your heart, not just your mind. Yes, even questions that are mysteries to science and current knowledge can be explored through Sensethinking. Where would you like to go?
Before & After
Before & After
Yes, there is a clear before and after Sensethinking that you can experience with these courses:
the concepts about yourself and the nature of learning and information before Sensethinking, and the new paradigm of education that you come to know and experience as true about yourself after.
But it's not because of Sensethinking that you have this experience. Rather, you have this experience because it's already within you. Sensethinking is just one of many practices that help you awaken to who you already are.
However, what makes Sensethinking unique as a modality is that it is designed specifically to bridge the old paradigm of education into the new!
