"Meet and Greet" Friday after 3 or 4 in the afternoon is a good time to arrive at Bare Oaks and check in with the Bodyfest reception tent. Around 7 PM join us for the meet-and-greet on the front lawn. Robert will lead you in some challenging group hand-linking games. Geoff will offer some decaf coffee samples from his roasting company. There will still be time to find a camping spot and set yourself up for the weekend.
"Spirit Symphony" with Sharamine Friday evening around dusk we're off with a bang and a bing! Join in with Sharamine's collection of drums, bells, whistles and tambourines. Play or dance. Or both! - At the fire pit west of the office building.
Fire Pit Hang-out Friday before you go to bed, burn your bare bum around the fire pit! But keep your voices down. Some people want to sleep! No more drumming please! One fire pit is near the beach and the other is near the playground (main lawn).
Hatha Yoga with Nikki It is first thing Saturday morning at 9 AM. Step into this easy, early morning, warming up of the body with gentle stretches and deep breathing. This will not tire you out but instead it will get you ready to have a long multi-inspirational day!
Yoga in Life Principles A surprise special guest swami from India will grace us with his presence and offer several enlighting sessions through the weekend. See the Schedule link.
Improv Class with Bobby and Andre Late morning - A few easy steps and exercises will get your brain synapses coming up with situational banter you never knew you had in you. The results are unexpectedly hilarious.
