Course Q&As

• When is the next course being run? We are simmering towards another offering in spring 2024 - beginning mid-October and finishing around summer solstice. Please sign up to our newsletter to be the first to know when dates are released and registrations open. 
• Which dates and times should I keep free? We hold online calls over ten weeks on Saturday mornings from 10-12.30 and the occasional Tuesday evening.  
• What is the time commitment? Please make time to attend live zoom sessions as well as 2-3 hours of home study and practice each week in between sessions. ​
• ​Will Zoom sessions be recorded? Yes, however, live attendance is strongly recommended. We love participation! Small group discussions in break-out rooms (where the most learning happens) are not recorded.

• How much does it cost? Registration is $350. You can also pay less (i.e nobody will be turned away for lack of funds) or more (i.e a "pay it forward").  You'll find more guidance on how much to pay during the registration process.
• Why do you charge? Where does the money go? We believe that the work we do is important, and we want to do it well. We want to pay ourselves for at least some of the time and energy that we put into it. We also want to generously compensate our advisors/tuakana as well as grow our capacity to donate money to Māori-led kaupapa at a higher level than we can as individuals.
• I've already done GatG and I want to do it again. Can I? Yes! (Although if numbers are tight we may prioritise newbies). If the cost is a barrier to you, please consider that a) you've already paid and b) you could contribute in another way like facilitating an affinity group, guest-speaking, website optimisation etc. Get in touch xx
• How do I find out more about bespoke offerings or future courses? Sign up to our mailing list below to receive irregular, informative, and occasionally entertaining newsletters.

Please note: Where possible, we encourage participants to take the course alongside a friend, partner, or relative. Having a 'buddy' on your journey is incredibly helpful for a number of reasons:

• you'll be more likely to show up if your friend is showing up! i.e you keep one another accountable; 
• you can debrief and discuss in your own time - this is where some of the most valuable learning happens;
• we are working to get away from individualism and rebuild a relational sense of identity, i.e it makes sense to be in relationship while we're doing this work, rather than something we are doing alone or separately from the rest of our lives.

We acknowledge that you may not have anyone in your world right now who jumps to mind as a potential buddy. We acknowledge that many folks who are exploring these territories may feel quite isolated in their explorations and/or estranged from their kin. We welcome you! We trust that being in this process will increase our capacity for calling in our close ones in the long term, as, when, and if it becomes accessible. 

A note for groups/organisations: If you're part of a group or organisation who wishes to take this course together, please be in touch. We may be able to customise an offering for you.
