Are you holding space for groups—or dreaming of it? 💭

Whether you're a therapist, coach, facilitator, educator, healer or community leader… if you work with people in group spaces, this one’s for you.

Join senior supervisor, trainer and therapist Margarete Koenning for a two-day, in-person immersion that will grow your confidence, deepen your understanding of group dynamics, and sharpen your facilitation skills.

This is not just for Family Constellation facilitators—it’s for anyone leading:
🌀 Sharing circles

✨ The theory and purpose behind powerful group work
🛠 Practical tools, frameworks & rituals for holding space
👥 Real-time group dynamics as they unfold
🪞 Your own style, strengths and edges as a facilitator
🧭 How to meet complexity with clarity and presence

Margarete brings over 40 years of experience across many modalities, and her approach is as grounded and wise as it is practical and embodied.

Expect learning, practice, reflection—and the kind of insight that stays with you long after the weekend ends.

📅 September 27–28, 2025
📍 Maleny Neighbourhood Centre
⏰ 9am–4pm both days

🌟 What an incredible weekend! 🌟

Our professional development workshop diving into 1:1 Family Constellation work was powerful, moving, and deeply human. It was such a joy to connect and reconnect with each of you — to explore, expand, learn, laugh, cry, and hold space for the full spectrum of what it means to be alive.

There’s something truly magical about doing this work in community. Together, we carry the wisdom and healing we experienced out into the world, rippling it through the communities we serve.

Thank you all for showing up so fully 💛 Let’s keep weaving this good work forward.

What a beautiful and rich weekend of Family Constellation Facilitator Training with the Systemic Constellation Academy!

Our focus this time was on group work, and what a weekend it was.
We were held in a field full of connection, laughter, tears, learning, deep family system explorations, firepit moments, nourishing food, warm hugs, and plenty of cups of tea.

After a restful day to integrate, we’re feeling ready to share some glimpses and reflections from our time together.

To everyone who joined us at the Old Witta School—thank you for bringing your hearts, presence, and courage. We hope your week has started gently, with space to marinate in the goodness that unfolded.

Here’s to this powerful journey of becoming and remembering 🌿🌀

✨ This weekend, we’ll be gathering for the third time with this year’s constellation training circle—a group of skilled and thoughtful colleagues, all deepening together in this work. ✨

We’re returning to the beautiful Old Witta School. There’s something so special about this venue—it holds a quiet charm and sense of history that supports deep, grounded work. We love coming together here. It offers a grounded, welcoming space for deep learning and connection.

Over the weekend, we’ll be diving into:
🌿 Group dynamics, Group work and facilitation practice
🌿 New perspectives in constellation work
🌿 Blended or patchwork family systems
🌿 Abstract applications – working with concepts, illness, ritual, nature, archetypes, and blind constellations

These are powerful, practical skills for any facilitator—and an opportunity to keep growing together in community.

We’re also beyond grateful that Trinna will be with us again, weaving her food magic into the weekend. Her nourishing, thoughtful meals are truly part of what makes these gatherings feel so supported and whole. 🍲💛

Here are a few glimpses of what it looks like when we come together in this beautiful space—held by nature, history, and a shared love for this work.

🌀 What does a 1:1 Family Constellation session actually look like?
✨ The answer is—many things! ✨

In our upcoming 1:1 Constellations Professional Development Weekend, we’ll be exploring the rich variety of ways this work can be adapted for individual sessions. Whether you're working in-person or online, there are creative, grounded ways to bring the constellation field alive.

Here are just a few formats we'll explore together:
📍 Using figurines or small objects to represent family members or systemic elements
📍 Floor anchors or felt mats for movement-based constellations
📍 Paper and pen for genograms and symbolic mapping
📍 Abstract constellations exploring illness, concepts, archetypes or rituals
📍 Visualisation-based constellations held through language, imagery, and presence
📍 Online adaptations using virtual tools and simple setups

Each approach supports a different kind of insight—and you’ll get hands-on experience with them all.

✨ June 28–29 on the Gold Coast (Coolangatta)
🎟️ Early Bird ends June 13!
👥 Open to anyone who has completed a foundational constellation training with any recognised trainer.

📸 Below are a few glimpses of how this work can look in the 1:1 setting. Whether tactile, visual, verbal or energetic, these formats all open the door to deep systemic healing.

Community is key 🗝️

In Family Constellations, the power of community is at the heart of healing. When we gather in this sacred space, we are reminded that we are part of something larger—a network of support, connection, and shared experience. It’s through the presence of others that we are able to see our stories in a new light, offering us the opportunity to heal not only ourselves but also our relationships and family systems.

Community offers a space where we can witness and be witnessed, allowing our hearts to open as we support one another on the journey. In this shared experience, we find the courage to face deep truths, knowing we are held by the collective strength of the group. The healing doesn’t happen in isolation but through the connection and resonance with those around us.

Together, we create a field of belonging where growth and transformation become possible. When we step into this community, we allow ourselves to heal in a way that is rooted in shared humanity.

Are you ready to experience the power of community in your own constellation journey? Join us and see what unfolds!

There are still a couple of tickets left for our upcoming constellation immersion with Bill Mannle and we would love to have you join this community for a weekend of exploration and healing.

We look forward to seeing you there!
