We invite you to enter with an expansive heart and a dream of a transformational experience!!!!
The Dance Medicine Campout will take place at Resica Falls Boy Scout camp in the Pocono Mountains. The sweet spring air will be bursting with the excitement of new life and in May we will be feeling the warm sun on our skin. Recisa falls is a 500 acre forested camp which we will have to ourselves throughout the weekend. We have big fields with which to play in, a gushing cold river to swim in and do plunges and an amazing waterfall on the property to look at. ๐๐ ๐๐ฅ๐ชตโจ
There are heated sleeping cabins on site and plenty of areas to set up your tent. We will dance both in the open sky and inside a beautiful large hall. There will be options for a full meal plan and plenty of food vendors to purchase nourishing dance sustaining foods and drinks.
What makes our event so special? Itโs the community!!! Our annual Campout is like a family gathering with beautiful souls you may already know and ones you might be looking for! Itโs the coming together of great conscious minds who seek a life of self expression and connection. We welcome people from everywhere (up here, down there and out there) including anybody who is new to ecstatic dance and this community. We aim to create an inclusive event with activities that foster connections. You can come alone and still feel connected or you can come with a group and welcome people into the journey. The campout is an immersive experience that encourages you to discover something new about yourself and about how you interact with the world. ๐ฟ๐๐๐๐ฅ๐
