Maria Joao Alvito and the
Portuguese Chapter welcomed 30 of the 44 Trainers from
around the world.
Our retreat site was in Sintra, Portugal out side of Lisbon
and just a few blocks from the beach.
Our schedule was very busy. We not only review the exam and
training documents but discuss issues that have come up
during our trainings. It is wonderful to share our work and
hear what is happening in other chapters.
The Portuguese chapter entertained us with a local music and
dance group. It was fun and festive way to experience the
culture of Portugal.
