Bali, Indonesia

Ellen Watson with the staff of MovingVentures School and a host of many other talented teachers!

MovingVentures School is honored to take part in the second annual BaliSpirit Festival of yoga, dance, sacred music, retreat, and ceremony, April 1-4, 2009, in Bali.

Fusing the personal transformative process of a spiritual retreat with the ecstatic communal energy of a world music and dance fest, the BaliSpirit Festival offers an exultation of the sacredness of Being.

The Festival opens with a day-long offering of SILENCE, fasting and prayer.

From the warmth of sacred silence, participants INHALE and enter a transformative retreat intensive.

Emerging centered and whole, participants then join together in an EXHALE of love and profound gratitude with celebratory days of yoga, dance, music, drumming & meditation workshops, as well as nightly concerts, kirtans, and dance gatherings.

Our festival concludes with a mass meditation and blessing ceremony. Festival goers will participate in a profound ritual, led by local Balinese holy men & women.

As a compassionate gesture of thanks and return to the island and its people, the BaliSpirit Festival includes a Karma Yoga component. A percentage of revenue will be donated to non-profit organizations in Bali and festival goers will have an option to visit nonprofits organizations and donate their time as well.

BaliSpirit Festival is centered in the spectacular country of Bali. With its lush tropical surroundings, deeply artistic & devotional culture, and world-class food, shopping and retreat facilities, Bali is often described as "The Best Island in the World."
