What we’re about
In this inclusive gathering of splendid humans of all genders, beliefs, builds, and interests, we will enJOY a variety of repeated monthly activities with the possibility of an annual adventure trip!
The idea is to gather a community together of those wanting to explore their inner power and strength as they get to know each other---- all while having fun and maybe 'learn us some new stuff "
Now to the nitty gritty –Who’s itz & What’s itz:
😀🫠👯🧚♂️🧙🧙♂️WHO’s ITZ: ANY adult over the age of 18 (younger teens may attend, but need to be with a guardian) to explore the power of Qi🐉🌍 within!
HOW will this be accomplished, you ask?! Aha!! --- so many ways, and all enjoyable, and likely inspirational, empowering, and creative!!
WHAT’s ITZ: OUTDOORSY OPTIONS GALORE

Definition of the Qi Power Within: EVERYONE has it and can cultivate, harmonize and strengthen it!!!
It is sometimes referred to as YIN / YANG in East Asian Studies, symbolized by a dark-and light colored dragons or the SUN & MOON in KUNDALINI in Yoga; the Bodhisattvahs in Buddhism and the , Trinty of Father, Son and Holy Spirit/Mother Mary/Madonna in Christianity, the Mother Earth and Father Sky in Earth traditions or the Divine Feminine /Goddess Masculine / God in esoteric studies.
It is almost always considered the nurturing, soft, grounded with strong boundaries and intuitive properties of a being. Often, a human with strong tendencies to hold the role of caregiver or healer, but also a fierce warrior, powerful athlete, artist, creator, craftsperson, or gardener! The cosmic energy of chaos and order and all that is in-between
