SOULARUS CAMPOUT SERIES Invites you to join us for the Fall Equinox Campout, the third campout in our series of four seasonal campouts on every equinox and solstice. See future dates at bottom.

At each campout, we feature a topic not often acknowledged (or explored with enough nuance) in mainstream society. In this edition of our ongoing campout series, we will be exploring sensuality and sexuality as it informs our dance, our relationship to our bodies, and our connection to the natural world. We will have a fishbowl conversation for the community to witness and participate in as well as a few workshops focusing on this topic. As always you are fully at choice about whether you participate in any or these and to what degree.

We hope you will join us for 5 days and 4 nights of connection, expression, and movement at Skview, our new property in the beautiful Santa Cruz mountains! Find yourself dancing beneath the trees or atop a stunning ridge with gorgeous views. Enjoy morning and evening dances then frolicking in the pond or wandering into the forest. Organic, vegetarian MEALS INCLUDED! Art classes, song circles, music jams, movement playshops, healing arts, and other activities will be available to elevate your mind, body, and soul. Skyview has hiking trails and plenty of room for camping with a mix of sun and shade. In addition to the pond for swimming there are hot tubs and showers.

*** NOTE: This Fall we can only accommodate 50 participants! For this first campout at the new property we want to keep the impact on the land low as we learn about what works best and what's needed in our new space. The last three campouts have had over 120 campers each time so get your ticket for this Fall soon before it sells out.
