ABOUT THE CLASSES
Bay Area Life Skills uses a program called "Learning to Live, Learning to Love" that was developed by Paul Hegstrom, founder of Life Skills International. During the course, Men and Women meet separately and learn how and why the "cycle of violence" takes place. New tools and skills are introduced to break the patterns of the past and establish balance in relationships. The class helps us work through emotional wounds and wrong beliefs about ourselves, so that we can grow up emotionally and spiritually and be all that God has created us for.

PHASE I
The first part of the curriculum, Phase I, is a 30-week course that takes hurting people back to the stage of development when they were wounded and restarts the maturing process. It not only looks at the complex area of arrested development, but also examines how living with abuse can look on a daily basis. |
PHASE II
Phase II is a 24-month program available to graduates of Phase I. In a dynamic group environment, you can go deeper in application and continue to practice and implement new ways of living. Phase II consists of 16 different modules. New Phase I graduates may join at the beginning of each new module. |
