Dear Friends,
Autumn 2012 is going to be a great moment for Voice Dialogue. The international Francophone group has been working with fervor. Some of you already know about this while others are just learning about it.
We’re inviting you to an international meeting of Voice Dialogue professionals (teachers and senior facilitators) that will be held at the Chateau de Méridon in the Valley of Chevreuse, about 20 miles south of Paris, France.
Our goal is to create an environment where we can share our different approaches, exchange our experiences and ask one another questions about our work.
Please find below the details to help you organize your stay:
Dates
We’ll be able to welcome you from Thursday, September 6th starting 11am until Sunday, September 9th after lunch.

The Chateau is in a pleasant, friendly, country setting that can accommodate up to 120 people. In order to take advantage of the time we have together we’ll all be residential – living in close proximity to one another in the Chevreuse Valley - and, except for breakfast, we’ll have all our meals together at the Chateau de Méridon.
