Krista Gemmell Harris

Seattle, WA
3 days August 13-16th, Thursday, 7 pm thru Sunday, 4 pm
In an effort to keep costs down in these times, the ''urban,'' non-residential retreat affords us to have a communal retreat experience, and stay in our homes. This 3- day Untensive will be led by master InterPlay teacher, Krista Gemmell Harris, and InterPlay storyteller extraordinaire, Randy Newswanger. With humor and ease, Krista and Randy, will explore the wealth of InterPlay forms that both welcome and guide your innate creativity. This event is appropriate for both new and experienced folk, and is sure to offer bountiful laughter, relaxation, community connection, and the space to challenge yourself in a safe, supportive environment.
