Facilitation is about guiding, shaping, and co-creating experiences of learning. It is a relational, participatory art and a process of discovery. Facilitation encourages us to recognise our power and also to be humble, to take seriously the feelings and ideas that every person brings to a space.
For radical educators and youth practitioners, I offer interactive training that allows us to challenge the power dynamics of mainstream education, centring trauma-informed, inclusive and creative practices.
For small groups of young people, I offer bespoke programmes of arts-based, interactive sessions to support skills building around emotional literacy, healthy relationships and self esteem.
For curious adults, I offer workshops that invite us to deconstruct cultural norms and experiment with new ways of engaging in community and relationships.
Meet Tasha
Tasha has been designing and facilitating participatory workshops since 2016, focussing on developing person-centred, holistic and creative approaches, to explore topics rarely covered in mainstream education: around sexuality, gender, relationships, mental health, emotional literacy, media literacy, feminism, environmental activism and more. She has facilitated over 1000 workshops, seminars and training sessions, across a variety of settings including youth groups, summer camps, festivals, schools, colleges and universities.
Background
Before Full Circle Facilitation, Tasha spent four years co-ordinating and teaching on The Role Models Project, a PSHE based mentoring programme between the University of Sussex and local schools. She became a Senior Youth Worker and ran a local Young Women’s group, alongside designing and piloting an award-winning Emotional Wellbeing Programme that went on to run in five schools across Sussex. She has since specialised in RSE working for five years as a workshop facilitator, programme coordinator and now Head of Training for Split Banana.
Education and Training
Tasha received a Distinction for her MA in Education from UCL’s renowned Institute of Education, where she specialised in queer, feminist, critical pedagogy for social justice. She’s been trained by leading providers such as the Sex Education Forum, The Proud Trust, CitizensUK, LifeBeat, LEAP Confronting Conflict, Partners in Youth Empowerment, Young Minds, Mental Health First Aid UK, School of Theatre of the Oppressed and MindOut.
