Event Description
Relax and share with Socrates „All I know is that I know nothing.“
Thanks to the fantastic work of the organizers, last year's Summer Retreat was truly outstanding! If something is working, do more of it... and so we appreciate the trust been given to again setting up a wonderful summer retreat with you co-creating a brand new week of experiences in a brand new location called Hydra.
Hydra - a picturesque island in the Greek saronic sea located next to Athens - is hosting the upcoming SOL Summer Retreat in May. The most beautiful car free island offers classic Greek nature to hike, sea to sail and outstanding hospitality and the home island of lots of artist who get inspired just like we need to get inspired for our work.
Hydra is an ideal place of retreat given there are no watches but only sun guidance, donkeys being the stars of the roads, and nature inviting for endless walks. Outstanding hospitality, simple lifestyle combined with some unforeseen adventure, endless space and Greek spirit.
You are a solution focused practitioner - junior or senior or wanting to become one - and ready for a summer retreat?
“Retreating” means being away from our usual environment and taking the time and space to become immersed in what is important to us at that very moment. As SF practitioners we would like to indulge in different things during our retreat... we imagine some moments of study, some time for professional exchange and practice, but also time for connection, time to be curious about the others, time for personal reflections and professional development. The range of activities will vary from uplifting group activities over buddy coaching sessions to moments of silence or outdoor games.
How?
Self organising will happen naturally when we share what is keeping us (all participants) busy, what we most long and need to do in order to relax or revive our mind and body that day. As you can see, the retreat will be highly practical. We will all benefit from the experiences of skilled participants and be able to bring in our questions and discoveries.
You feel like taking a break, reflecting and enjoying open space learning, experiencing Greek hospitality as well as spontaneous, adventurous creative culture, a one day outdoor experience (sailing, hiking...) and meeting like minded people?
You'll then definitely love the SOL Summer Retreat 2012 on Hydra!

Hi Sue, a Happy New Year to you!
Thanks for your question. We set a deadline to check at that point if we have enough participants to let it take place. If it's not booked out by then, you can of course join in later. If you can't decide by then, it'd still be good if you could send an email to office@reginareinhardt.com that states that you are thinking about coming but need more time to decide.
Isn't that great that Summer Retreat goes on?
I wish you all the best and hope to see you on Hydra!
Dominik

Just a question, does the deadline mean that you will be closing registrations after 31 January? I may not know before then if I can make it! It's great to see the Summer Retreat is becoming a tradition!

Thank you for your feedback and your question. The dates are from Thursday, May 17, to Monday, May 21, with individual arrival on Wednesday, May 16. Thursday, May 17 is Ascension Day with our hope that many of you are planning to make a bridge day on Friday.
Wouldn't that be great - a bridge day on a warm and sunny island?
Warm Regards and hope to see you there

Notes
Jumpstart into Solution Focus
You want to learn more about "Solution Focus"?
You prefer a "step by step" introduction instead to start with reading some voluminous books?
You would appreciate to have a complete "helicopter view" on SF after the first step…
