Participants stand around, some holding hands, appearing joyful and engaged. A drum and speaker are visible, indicating music or guided audio is part of the activity.

Each of our presenters is intentionally selected for the depth and breadth of their knowledge, teaching experience, and their ability to hold safe space where healing can happen. They’re widely-recognized thought-leaders, some of the most sought-after in the world.
