About NLP
NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) offers a way of understanding how we, as unique individuals, operate in the world. It provides us with ways to make the changes we want to make easily and naturally so that we can live, express and develop ourselves fully.
NLP was developed in the 1970s by Richard Bandler and John Grinder, who set out to discover how people who were excellent in their fields created and maintained their high levels of performance. It has been developed into a set of powerful tools which can help us all to improve our personal and professional effectiveness in any area we choose: communication, relationships, sport, business, health, therapy and education, among others.
Creating Compelling Futures
Since the early days, NLP has attracted people from a wide range of disciplines. It can be, and is, applied successfully in a wide variety of different fields.
It is particularly known for the effectiveness of the change techniques at its core. By setting clear and compelling goals you can use these change techniques to enhance your life and overcome any obstacles or fears that may be blocking you.
Personal change processes are only half of the NLP story. Everything we do can be applied in different ways and different situations. Past graduates are using the techniques to improve their communication, leadership, team work and influencing skills generally, and to assist them in making effective decisions about their futures.

What people have said about our "Dare to Dream" weekends:
Dear Sarah, thank you so much for creating such a wonderful space in which we all worked together. I got heaps and heaps from just 2 days — you are awesome! — Julia
Just a quick note to thank you for a wonderful weekend........the Introduction to NLP was brilliant and I thought Sarah was absolutely amazing. I noticed how I soon felt relaxed enough to open up in such a warm and loving atmosphere and it has certainly left me with a desire to learn more. Please pass on my thanks to Sarah — Debbie
I absolutely enjoyed my NLP weekend with Sarah. For me it has been a life altering experience!!!!! — Esther
I would like to say that the NLP taster course was fantastic and has really helped me in understanding others and myself at both work and home. Many thanks — SW
The NLP weekend was so informative, fun, welcoming, and life changing! — Joanne
The NLP weekend with Sarah was excellent. Never having done anything
vaguely it before I didn't know quite what to expect and arrived
feeling mainly hopeful and interested, but partly cynical. I found
the two days a very enlightening and positive experience.
The
choice of venue is brilliant and sharing lunch a great idea. I found
the sessions to be a really good mix of theory and practical
exercises with lots of stories and examples from Sarah that turned
out to be more relevant than I first anticipated. I really liked
Sarah's style and her level of perception is almost incredible. I
left feeling completely exhausted but as if a huge weight had been
lifted from me. I am now heading towards a goal I understand more
clearly and am confident that I will take the right actions to get
there soon.
Thanks again for arranging a great weekend. —
