“I can’t say enough how great both this course and Danny are and how essential this is for any relationship. Danny is a true master at making this material accessible, digestible and practical. I was able to create an open heart relationship with a complete stranger in a few simple sentence exchanges. I have never experienced anything like this. This material is applicable in all spheres of your life where you want to a) express yourself authentically and fully and create an environment where hearts and minds can relax and b) hold both your needs and the other persons with care and love.”

“I am very willing to recommend more companies, especially those technology companies that need innovation and require every employee to have a sense of participation and achievement, to study NVC, and to learn and interact more with Danny. I believe that everyone can feel the invisible magic brought by NVC from him, which not only improves the connection among people, but also greatly improves efficiency of communication.”

“Learning NVC was like learning the fine melody of the heart, it helps navigate through the delicate and precious act of two people’s conflicts coming together from off key into a harmony. It is that moment of silence when you are in awe because you feel like it’s not so terrible, that there is space for you, that you are understood more than you thought, that you are not alone, that you are not in survival and that the ‘other’ can live in this small eco system you’ve built. There is room for two, there is room for more because you aren’t taking away from the other nor do you contradict. Learning with Danny has helped me not to give up in situations when it felt like the other could not possibly understand. It was like watching a master paint a masterpiece which is called compassion. It’s a reminder that life’s conflicts can look and feel different and can be translated into care.”

“Taking the NVC course with Danny has been truly eye opening for me as it made me all of a sudden observe conversations in a very different light and identify how even when we think we are giving helpful feedback or listening well, we are actually not. This has helped me to start shifting both in team conversations and 1-on-1 conversations at work, with the goal of truly understanding underlying needs people are trying to address rather than focus only on what has come out to the surface.”

“Danny Cohen’s Art of Communication course was consistently a highlight of my week. My partner and I took this course together during a particularly challenging time in our relationship—we were on the brink of separating because we were having a hard time communicating our feelings and needs, and empathizing with the needs of one another. This course gave us powerful practices that helped us navigate some of our most difficult conversations. Danny embodies the nonviolent communication practices he teaches, demonstrating the depth of his knowledge. He creates a container that invites both deep vulnerability and playfulness, a magical combination for learning. Working with Danny was truly transformational. I feel lucky to have found a lifelong teacher and friend.”
