Vajra Dance Practice and Review Retreat

Saturday, May 31 and Sunday, June 1 in Occidental

Please join us for three weekend days of instruction and review of the Vajra Dance with Issa Cox, second-level Vajra Dance Teacher visiting the Bay Area for the first time.

Over the last weekend in May, on Saturday May 31 and Sunday June 1, we will dance on the mandala in a yurt at Dorena Rode's farm in Occidental. Issa will review and refresh our practice of the Vajra Dance of the Song of the Vajra and the Vajra Dance that Benefits Beings, answering our questions and providing personalized advice. We will alternate Vajra Dance practice sessions with short sitting practices. Sessions both days will begin at 10am and end around 5pm. 

The following Saturday, June 7, we dance at our Hidden City Ballroom venue in Point Richmond.

  • For the morning session on June 7, 10am to 1pm, Issa will offer an advanced course review of the Dance of the Three Vajras. 
  • For the afternoon session on June 7, 3pm to 5:30pm, she will teach Vajra Dance of the Dimension of Space (12 As). Instruction in the dance of the (12 As) is open to everyone in the community who is interested.
