Saturdays: 11 am - 1:30 pm & 2:45 - 5:30 pm ET

These monthly gatherings are the heart of the program - where we connect, develop our network of support while we play and explore together. Utilizing the various InterPlay forms and tools we will create and engage in deepening our spiritual practices.

• Three personalized focus sessions to integrate experiences and insights. We nurture resilience together by weaving the wisdom of our bodies into our spiritual lives.
• Reading, writing, and sharing practices which will help us apply InterPlay insights to our own life, based on the digital texts: Having it All-Body, Mind, Heart & Spirit Together at Last and The Wisdom of the Body. These reflections can take many different forms: writings, letters, artwork, poetry, photography, video/audio recordings, etc.
• The Core Elements Self-Study and the InterPlay Life Practice Booklet which will give you a more in-depth understanding of the InterPlay system.

Closing Retreat: Jun 27 + Jun 28, 2026

Sunday: 3 - 5 pm ET

Our Closing Retreat will offer opportunities to review and play with all the InterPlay tools and forms we learned over the course of this program. We will also take time to make rituals, share our unique learnings of how our spirituality has been nurtured, nourished and expanded through the InterPlay system, support each other through movements & sounds, and honor our bodyspirit, individually and communally, during the final weekend in a celebratory way.
