Hey friends!
I will not be in attendance this year at Ky Yoga Festival, PlayThink, or the Goddexx Gathering. After 5 years, the organizing team has rejected my
Workshops and Instructor applications
Theme camp applications
And apparently my vendor applications as well.
No Stella Marie the Massage Bus this year!
Obviously, I am disappointed. But of course it is the right and prerogative of the organizers to have whomever they wish at their events, and I support that right.
But, I have developed dozens of friends that I will miss tremendously. Many of you have come to see me for massage 10, 12, 15 times over the years, and I know several of you seek me out as a part of your festival experience. Skycladding has been one of the most heart opening workshops I’ve ever done, and I am continually humbled by how folks show up for my workshops.
I hope we will find other ways to connect and work together in the future. I hope to also see you at other events and festivals the coming year.
I AM planning on being at MyPATH, both May and September, Rhythm Rising in August, the Indiana Yoga Flow and Fire Fest in September, and hopefully a couple of others.
My doors in Louisville and Frankfort are always open to you. Find me at https://siida.as.me
Mainly, I am looking at this as an opportunity to begin building my OWN retreats and community, having completed my apprenticeship, endured the changes wrought by the past and the shedding snake, and embracing the Fire Horse to move into my own energy. I hope we can walk the same path, at least part of the way.
