(WHAT HAPPENED TO DIMITRI?! The event we had planned for this evening with Dimitri had to be rescheduled because Dimitri had to go to New York unexpectedly. So instead we decided to have a community discussion to launch the new Sitting Safe guide that we we have been working on.)
SCHEDULE
Doors open at 7:00 PM for mingling and tea. Tea provided by the I.AM.LIFE Guayusa Tea Lounge.
Presentation will be from 8-10PM.
