  2. Lodging and Food for in-person weekends: First come, first serve rustic lodging available for $50/night at the teaching space (sleeping in teaching yurt, two small tiny houses, or camping). Alternative lodging can be found in the surrounding areas of Port Townsend, Chimacum, Eaglemount, etc. Food costs for two dinners, two breakfasts, two lunches + snacks.

Location

Most classes take place on Zoom.
In-person weekends take place at a rustic retreat space in Eaglemount, WA, about 20 minutes outside of Port Townsend, WA on the Olympic Peninsula. The space has electricity and running water, pit toilets/free pee on the land, a shower with hot water, and a full kitchen.

Missing Class

All zoom classes will be recorded. I am working to find a way for in-person classes to be attended via Zoom, but this is a challenge due to the rural location which allows cell reception, but no wifi. These live weekends are hard to recreate, but some of the material can the made up through reading outlines, personal practice and 1-1 session with Katy.
