My duck and I teach classes.
Usually at our fabulous center — the Playground! And some programs happen online.
We have fun. Sometimes too much fun. You should join us.
Events often sell out within a couple days, so it can happen that stuff doesn’t even show up here because things fill before someone on the pirate crew gets a chance to update.
Though I do try to announce things to the very occasional “Hey, I’m doing a thing” list.

Next up! 2012
Come to a Rally in 2012! Rally!
Three and a half days of destuckifying and learning fascinating/useful things, while getting more done on your projects than you ever imagined possible. Even if you don’t know what your projects are yet.
While napping, playing, coloring with crayons, eating snacks and swinging in the hammock.
These fill crazy-fast. Figure out when you can come and make it happen.

SHIVANAUTICON 2012
Instead of another two day Shiva Nata training, we’re throwing SHIVANAUTICON!
A Weekend Unconventional (like a convention but way more fun), followed by a three and a half day training. Do one or the other or both.
The Unconventional will be for silly practice, hanging out, learning stuff you didn’t know, having massive epiphanies and being in a delight-filled shivanautical world of color, patterns and fun.
The Training is all that and going way deeper. Plus my sneaky beneath-the-surface-teacher-training. Theory, practice, destuckifying what-ifs, getting you ready. All levels, total beginners welcome.
» In August. Sign up for advanced notification at Shivanauticon.com
RETREAT: Crossing the Line. The 8 Day Voyage
When: October 23-30, 2012. Eight days.
What: Eight days of systematically moving through your stucknesses, connecting to what you need, rewriting patterns and pretty much changing everything, but in a good way.
Where: The Playground (Portland, Oregon).
» Information and how to apply here Password = haulaway
As of last count, eight spots left.
2013. It sounds like the future but it’s almost here…
We will have FOUR Rallies in 2013. Dates coming soon!
Updates! They are get-able.
If you sign up here for updates on events and classes.*
IMPORTANT. This is not a marketing/selling/convincing list.
I’m not going to bombard you with stuff about why you should take my programs. Just announcing new things. And I will be astonished if I end up sending you updates more than once a month. Last year I sent out five things total.
The reason to be on it is that normally what happens is this: I announce something on the blog or at the Frolicsome Bar, it fills up in a day and people miss it.
* Should go without saying, right? But: I will never share your information with anyone. That would be a supremely crappy thing to do and ew.
The fields we need filled out are the ones in bold. The rest is up to you. Thanks!
Awesome.
Sending you love.
Havi (and Selma the duck)

I can’t do anything about the live events right now, but if it’s a teleclass or online course, you might be able to get recordings and notes … take a look in the shop.
