Bare Fest 2019

July 25-28 - Saratoga Springs Retreat Center, CA

Bare is a 4 day clothing optional journey into the nature of our being. An opportunity to let go of unwanted patterns and conditions, and to celebrate our human bodies.
Let's accept ourselves fully so we may connect deeper than ever before.

BARE YOUR BODY. BARE YOUR SOUL.

Through dancing & movement, meditation, connection workshops, live music, hot-tubbing and simply being together in nature, we will shed our layers and masks and allow our true selves to shine through.

Nudity allows us to bare ourselves fully to our environment, to be raw and exposed, and in the process, allows us to uncover something deep that we have forgotten.
‍
It connects us with our inner child.
It connects us with our inner animal.
It connects us with our true self.

WHAT WILL BARE BE LIKE?

Imagine 4 days in the stunning nature of Mendocino, all focused on getting real with yourself and the people around you. Things you might experience are:

The simple bliss of wearing no clothes for several days straight
The joy and playfulness of a naked dance party
The intimacy of a non-sexual naked embrace
Liberation from constant judgement of self and others
Developing an appreciation for all body shapes and sizes

Most people never get the chance to feel what's it's like to be naked for several days out in nature. This is your chance to have a truly profound experience surrounded by beautiful embracing community.

ACTIVITES WILL INCLUDE

Yoga and other energy practices
Workshops focused on Connection, Communication, Creativity, and Body Acceptance
Dance parties by some of the finest DJs in the Bay Area
Live Music by the fire
Body Painting

"Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing."
