Kira's Intro:

Summer's upon us. Conference season begins. This year we have THREE incredible conferences 1) Northwest Polyamory Conference at Harbin Hot Springs, CA, 2) Northeast Polyamory Conference, Bryn Mawr, PA; and 3) the Art of Loving Conference in Chicago, IL.  While each conference may have a main theme, we diversify the experience for all and feature polyamory, tantra, paganism, spirituality, magick, BDSM, metaphysics and more.  We include mind-expansive, cutting-edge, open-minded professional speakers, workshop presenters, musicians, artists, dancers and entertainers from the mind, body, soul and spirit movements. 

We've had many requests from Europe, Australia, Asia and especially the Southern U.S. for the World Polyamory Association for us to bring conferences and workshops to those parts of the world.  We're delighted to go wherever called.  We need the support of local coordinators and volunteers to step forward to make it happen.  That's what happened with Chicago. The Chicago community beckoned to us and together we're creating a major Conference (Art of Loving Conference) this Fall and a focused tantra weekend intensive, Celebrate Sacred Sexuality, in June.  We'd love to create a tantra, relationship, polyamory, Voice Dialogue, Holotropic Breathwork, VIniyoga or Existential Life Review workshop for your community or group in your area too.  It's expensive to travel but if we pool resources we can create what you need in your area.

Sasha and I'll be home most of July and August so we created two tantra intensives in response to many requests.  Since this newsletter's getting long, I'll just include the links in the table of contents below and tell you more about them next time. 

We're looking forward to seeing you on our summer tour.  Come up and introduce yourself to us.

Blessings, Love and Warmest Aloha,
Kira
