About the Intention Winter Gathering
Intention evolved from the simple ritual of getting together to dance.
It is a family event for connecting with old friends while making new ones.
It is a healing place to shed the isolation and separation of modern urban life.
It is a safe and supportive space for learning and creative risk-taking.
It is an opportunity to learn from a peer mentor by helping organize.
Intention deepens our ability to cooperate and opens our hearts.
