A chance for focus in two sessions on Wednesday, and two sessions on Thursday morning, before the rest of the participants arrive to join us for the Thursday through Sunday retreat.

This is a deep dive. You’ll have an opportunity to connect in a small group setting. No experience necessary, just a willingness to explore.

You’ll select in advance from these wonderful offerings:

Songwriting with Sue Horowitz and The Levins

Transformational Storytelling with Maggid Jim Brulé

Movement, Meditation and Mindfulness with Rabbi Jeanne Snodgrass

Holy Drumming with Akiva the Believer
