We’re still feeling The Ordinary Magic in our lives and in our everyday work, sessions, and the way we connect with people.

Our participants arebringing it into their work:
– using Playfight as a powerful and playful method
– integrating poetry and time in nature as sources of inspiration
– applying embodiment tools to support young people with stress, presence, and connection

What stayed the most?
A deeper sense of grounding.
A stronger connection to the body.
And a new way of seeing nature — not just as a place, but as a learning partner.

It’s beautiful to see how this experience keeps growing, expanding, and reaching others through the work of each participant 💛
Thanks to our partner for this opportunity 🙏🏻

Are you passionate about making a change in your community? Curious how social entrepreneurship can turn ideas into impactful solutions? 🚀

In August, Laura had the opportunity to take part in the Erasmus+ training course Youth for Impact, it was in Armenia, Stepanavan. Participants coming from Latvia, Armenia, Italy, Slovenia, Czechia and Ukraine, coordinated by Latvian organisation Bioville, hosted by Armenian organisation Colibri Youth Development Center.

Over an inspiring week, participants explored:

✅ What social entrepreneurship really means

✅ How youth initiatives can tackle today’s challenges

✅ Practical tools to design and launch impact-driven projects

💡 Through workshops, discussions, and intercultural exchange, we built skills, shared stories, and created action plans to bring positive change back home.

This project was funded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union, empowering youth to grow, connect, and innovate for a better future.

👉 Stay tuned for more updates and inspiring stories from us!

This summer has been bussy taking part in the Erasmus+ training courses. Youth for Impact in Armenia has been special for Laura because of its topic and participants- people from Armenia, Slovenia, Czech Republic, Italy, Latvia and Ukraine came together to learn about social entrepreneurship and youth work.

We learned new tools for youth work, shared best practices, and developed ideas for social impact projects. It is real bless to get inspired by people who do things, invest their creativity, time and energy for the good of the other people and community. Just to make the world a slightly better place for all of us.

Keep learning, keep growing, keep evolving!
