LNiC Retreat 2026 will be held from October 23rd at 5 PM Pacific Time (with dinner) to October 30th at 10 AM Pacific Time (with snacks). We request that your travel plans allow you to attend the retreat from start to finish.
Flagstaff Airbnb's - Near NAU (Northern AZ University)
2 - 2-½ hours from Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport
Support for attendees to coordinate their travel with each other will be provided through a Google sheet [LNiC 2026 Travel Coordination Spreadsheet]. Share what you'd like to receive or offer, and connect with other participants regarding traveling to and from the retreat.
CALF events include a tradition known as the "Room Dance." At LNiC Retreat 2026, room assignments will not be determined prior to arrival at Flagstaff. Instead, once everyone arrives at Flagstaff, we will tour the accommodations and, as a group, decide room assignments based on the needs of each individual and the group as a whole.
The “hard cost” fee for attending the retreat will be between $1,400 and $1,700 (USD), depending on the total number of participants in attendance and the accommodations that you select. The "hard cost" fee covers your room (or a commuter fee), healthful vegetarian meals plus snacks, and the cost of travel and room and board for the team of trainers/assessors, and cooks.
During the retreat, you will have an opportunity to hear needs and requests from the team of trainers and organizers around compensation for the training and services they have provided, to reflect on your own needs and the value you received from the retreat, and to make a contribution to the team. A contribution of $600 to $1,400 (USD) from each participant is requested.
This CALF retreat is intended for certification candidates and others steeped in Nonviolent Communication, and those wanting to live NVC in community. If you are unsure whether this workshop is a fit for you, please contact Sylvia at silgiraffe@aol.com. Registration for the retreat is available online at LNiC Registration. Include a down payment of $1000 (USD) by September 15th to hold your spot and your commitment to attend the retreat. If funds are what would keep you from participating, contact us for more options. Payments and contributions can be made by Zelle, Venmo or PayPal through the email calfpayments@gmail.com. If you would like to make a payment in some other way, contact Syliva Haskvitz at silgiraffe@aol.com.
The retreat will be conducted in English. We request that participants have fluency in English.
