Milli O'Nair   CNVC Certified Trainer

Milli passed away on 10 May 2009

I was brought up in the alternative movement with a strong Buddhist and compassionate foundation. The violent communication at high school and my childhood trauma, tore me in half. This outer conflict and inner struggle, ignited my passion to do it differently. There had to be a way to connect with compassion and I set out to expand on what I knew. For over twenty years I delved deep to heal and explored far, to have the tools to make a difference in the world.

My commitment and determination lead me to Nonviolent Communication. I'm touched by NVC, it offers practical communication tools that support me in coming from my heart and being conscious in my relating. NVC brings together all that I know, value and have learnt, it is the missing element I was looking for.

My intensive training with Dr Marshall Rosenberg the founder of Nonviolent Communication, connected me to the power of this life changing process. Since then I have fully committed myself to being an NVC Trainer and sharing this process. I have been either facilitating trainings, organising events or building community ever since. I enjoy the diversity of trainings and variety of trainers and participate in everything possible, expanding my knowledge, skill and fluency. With over four years of intensive training, facilitating and integrating NVC, I am now Certified with the Centre for Nonviolent Communication.

I enthusiastically integrate NVC into my life and work. Having been a fitness trainer, life coach and counselor for over ten years. I founded Let's Connect, a business exploring dynamic and interactive ways of connecting. From NVC to Laughter Yoga and Playful Self Discovery Games, I facilitate inner and outer connection, with self and others.

I draw on my trainings and experiences with Yoga, Personal Fitness Training, Life Coaching, Business Management, Adult Education, Facilitation, Community Development, Healing Trauma, Play and Laughter Therapy. I spice up my sessions with my spiritual and cultural studies, while I was travelling the world. I weave these qualifications, experiences and gifts to share this empowering process, in innovative ways.

My Trainings and Sessions are experiential and interactive, tailored to meet your needs, using real life situations. I create a supportive and respectful learning environment. My passion is to inspire and motivate people to really connect and be empowered.
