SUMMARY:The Perfection Of It All
DESCRIPTION:The Perfection Of It All\nFriday\, July 3rd\, 2026\nGuest DJ: Karen Funshine (Karen Smith)\nSupport Facilitator: Kris Hostikka \nWhat if there is nothing wrong in our world and everything is part of a larger Divine intelligence that we cannot fully comprehend? What we call “good” and “bad” may simply be judgments based on our limited human perspective. \nThe Tao Te Ching teaches that reality naturally moves according to the Tao – the underlying way or flow of existence. Suffering arises when humans resist\, judge\, control\, or force life to conform to their preferences. What if all of it is necessary? The beauty and the horror\, birth and death\, love and betrayal\, war and peace are all needed for our growth and to maintain balance. Can we trust in the unfolding mystery? \nAs the poet and mystic Rumi wrote: “Out beyond ideas of wrong-doing and right-doing\, there is a field. I’ll meet you there.”

SUMMARY:Shifting
DESCRIPTION:Shifting\nSunday\, July 19th\, 2026\nFacilitator: Sara Bensman \nLet’s dance the internal shifts within ourselves. Let’s dance the shifts in consciousness that speak to the wild possibilities of our imagination. Let’s dance the collective changes we are experiencing now\, in this moment in time\, and those we dream for Our Future. \n“You are not a drop in the ocean. You are the entire ocean in a drop.” ― Rumi \n“Cultural shifts happen on a different level; they come into view only when we step back enough to see a bigger picture changing over time. A newspaper photograph viewed through a magnifying glass may appear only as tiny dots. When it seems as if our lives and choices are like those dots\, it can be difficult to recognize their contribution to a bigger picture of change.” ― Joanna Macy \n“A dream is not reality\, but who’s to say which is which?” ― Alice Through the Looking Glass\, Lewis Carroll

SUMMARY:Untamed
DESCRIPTION:Untamed\nFriday\, July 31st\, 2026\nGuest DJ: Stacey Butcher\nSupport Facilitator: Marta Martín \nSummer is a season of wild growth. Fields stretch toward the sun\, rivers find their own course\, and life flourishes beyond the boundaries we try to impose on it. In the same way\, there is a part of each of us that longs to move freely ~ to shake off expectations\, step outside familiar patterns\, and reconnect with our natural vitality. \nThis ecstatic dance is an invitation to listen to the untamed wisdom of the body. Through movement\, we’ll explore what happens when we loosen our grip on how we think we should be and instead follow the impulses\, rhythms\, and instincts that arise from within. \nTogether we’ll create a space where the wild\, authentic\, and fully alive parts of ourselves can emerge and dance. \n  \n
