PHILOSOPHY - CIRCLE PROCESS

Circle of World Arts designed the eight-step curriculum, THE CIRCLE PROCESS, to develop the skills needed on the path to personal, professional and social accomplishment and peace. Various creative exercises establish bonds of connection and communication, enhancing problem-solving and true collaboration.

THE CIRCLE PROCESS develops focus, concentration, self-awareness and decision-making skills needed not only as individuals but also in all group work.
