Imagine 160 people gathered together for 3 days on the Spring Equinox, celebrating together, enjoying, learning and growing in workshops, swimming, dancing, participating in ceremonies and activities, honouring each other and exploring the meeting of Masculine and Feminine energies, with others and within oneself.
