Summer University

We were a group of 21 CCA coaches who enthusiastically gathered at the eco-site L’Arbre aux Étoiles in Normandy for our CCA FR Summer University 2024. It was a weekend of co-creation, where everyone contributed tools and reflections.

Pauline and Sophie gently woke us up each morning with yoga on a beautiful platform overlooking the countryside. Later, Bruno awakened the Shambhala warriors within us during a vibrant workshop on the Work That Reconnects.

In the afternoons, we devoted ourselves to the eco-site, getting our hands in the earth to help with gardening. In the evenings, the Core Team – Angela, Pauline, Sophie, and Corine – led a workshop to reconnect us to our CCA FR mission, reminding us why we are here and what brings us together.

On Sunday, Dominique, Monique, and Florence took the lead with The Voice Circle, sharing inspiring coaching stories before encouraging us to reflect on how to make CCA shine. Meanwhile, Amélie and Joanne introduced us to Social Presencing Theatre (U theory), blending body and connection in an introspective dance. Gabriela combined Aikido and coaching to offer a new perspective on energy management.

Our closing circle was embodied in a Land Art project, immortalizing this enchanted break and strengthening our bonds and commitment within CCA.
