Universal Dream Dance Circle
hosted by Craig Sim Webb -- Monday Evening, June 27
A warm welcome to all dear souls who feel inspired to join a community
circle dance ritual that combines various traditions and celebrates
life and dreams with movement and music. It's a fun opportunity to
charge up your physical and dream bodies with lots of lucid energy,
and enjoy many friendly faces as you move and sing in harmony with the
group. In this easy-going, supportive atmosphere, absolutely no
previous experience is required (so don't listen to your inner critic
if it tells you that you won't fit in!) Please feel free to invite
along any guests who you think might enjoy the event.
With planning still underway, look for
other special events including a dream hike, impromptu dinner caravans
to local eateries, walks along the Bay, and other events to come. Full
details will be found in the conference program and be available
during daily morning conference announcements. Stay Tuned!
