Join Kenneth Cloke as he leads you through an intensive training exploring the hidden unities that connect the many diverse mediation practices.Participants will learn the fundamental reasons for adopting a holistic, pluralistic and eclectic approach to mediation styles, and develop the ability to utilize each as the circumstances warrant.
