PranaCamp

PranaCamp explores the elements and takes a special focus on discovering and managing the life forces that animate us - those energies that drive us and inspire us. It integrates traditional practice, including Tibetan Life Force Yoga, with contemporary western life and Nature. We use our relationship with the natural elements in order to find support for our evolution and transformation during and after the retreat. This program is for those people who are ready to take an authentic look within and who are ready to integrate powerful, natural practices into their lives to help bring about increased states of awareness and effective transformation on the levels of body, energy, and mind. This program is especially useful for participants to bridge traditional teachings with contemporary life. Within this program is an introduction to practical alchemy. We use our connection with alchemy to serve as biofeedback for our own internal transformations. As this process evolves, we begin to see and allow Nature to be this biofeedback for our selves and our evolution. Intended for 18 and up, averaging around 35 years old.

High Elevation PranaCamp

This program starts at 8,000’ feet elevation in the San Luis Valley and then moves up to about 12,000’ in the Sangre de Cristo Mountain Wilderness. We go up in elevation in order to fine to tune our own awareness of life force and how it affects us in our lives. Each day will be filled with group and solitary meditations on the pure essence of the elements, supported by the clear natural presence of the high country. While no experience is necessary to participate, applications will be screened for physical and energetic fitness and authenticity. These retreats are limited to 13 participants.

ElementsCamp for Kids

Get to know the elements - physically and energetically - and learn how to balance them individually and collectively using our Learning the Ways of the Elements curriculum. The ElementsCamp for Kids (ages 7 and up) program provides opportunities for the kids to play with the elements safely and simultaneously connect with and stabilize their own natural awareness and intelligence. These programs also provide a foundation for AlchemyCamp for Kids and PranaCamp (for Adults). The development of natural awareness and intelligence through participation in these programs can support the acknowledgement and identification of a specific quality of space within the individual, and this then allows the “seeding” of intuitive and experiential knowledge of such things as object, space, color, time, attraction, movement, union, independence, relationship, as well as many others. Then as the child continues to grow up, this inner space and awareness can merge over time into inner warmth, and eventually wisdom.

AlchemyCamp for Kids

While some have called this “Hogwarts of the Rocky Mountains”, we are calling it AlchemyCamp for Kids (ages 13 and up). This camp is for kids with gifts, who have a connection to their own mystical nature, and want to develop those skills further. Prerequisite for this Camp is at least one session of ElementsCamp for Kids, or by special arrangement. Participants should have the maturity, capacity, and child-like nature to learn directly from and with Nature. It will be taught to the capacity of each participant with emphasis on developing and sustaining awareness of body, energy, and consciousness, as well as cultivating leadership qualities from elemental and natural intelligence perspectives, in themselves as well as in other campers. Imbedded into this Camp will be opportunities for learning how to facilitate groups, accelerated elements integration training, and an introduction to natural alchemy.
