Return to the tribe, to the days when we lived in extended family. We gathered in small groups. We knew one another intimately. Our lives were deeply personal, felt on all levels. For protection we lived communally, often in a large room or series of inter-connected structures where love was shared openly. We felt intense love and we had to work it out because there was nowhere to go and we were all that we had.

Experience the tribe..... again. Join us for seven days in tropical paradise. The World Polyamory Association presents a week-long experiment in conscious, intentional community. We have workshops and presentations but also relax and facilitate transformation on a personal level, a level achieved from a whole week of hanging out together.

The first day, we join small (6 -12 person) groups (pods). Our pod support us getting what we want at the conference and in life. Each morning, after Sasha Lessin's (optional) white tantra yoga and meditation class and after breakfast, our pods meet and we each talk with our pod mates about what we're learn about poly loving.At 10 AM, we begin the experiential workshops of the day.

Each day at "Return to the Tribe" we experiment in aspects of polyamous living, compassionate and effective communication, coming out to non-polys, raising polys' kids in the uptight world, multiperson tantra, sharing resources and tasks, live-in partner protection, and more. On Monday, April 20, for example, Voice Dialogue facilitators Dr. Sasha and Janet Kira Lessin lead a workshop from Noon to 5 PM, called "Choreographing Your Inner Voices in Polyamorous Life."

Evenings after dinner at "Return to the Tribe" involve fun, play, dance, ceremonies, celebrations and opportunities for connecting. After a week of immersing ourselves in the process, with love, warm fuzzies and fun, we experience the possibilities of a poly-friendly world that works

Orange Springs Retreat Center is a clothing-optional sanctuary where you can do just about everything under the sun. The home for our community is a magnificent 100 acre retreat site in the gentle rolling hills on the edge of Florida's Ocala National Forest and on the shores of a spring-fed lake available for year-round group rental.
