- Tony and I will be at the boot of our white Subaru Outback (on the bathroom end of the large lot), plates ***PFT. I wear a zebra patterned pack and Tony will have a waterproof green grass pack.
- Riverbend Loop is approximately 3.5 miles with about 250’ of elevation gain and generally considered an easy to moderate route.
- The trail starts from the parking pin shared at the end of Milo McIver State Park, near Clackamas River. It will take us thru the woods where we will catch beautiful views of the river.
- Please be aware and use caution keeping an eye out for poison oak.
- We will work together to choose our Nia dancing spot, hopefully with a fab view.
- Nia Somatic movement is gentle, fun, inclusive, healing, move-at-YOUR-own-pace & in YOUR body's way. It is about what it FEELS like, not so much what it looks like, y'all.
- We use headphones (provided), handsfree mic, radio transmitter & iPod technology!
- Please wear clothing you like to move in and hooded rain gear (when needed) to protect our headphones.
- Be sure to have a healthy breakfast that includes protein & pack a snack perhaps.
- Bring your full water bottle.
- If your intention to attend changes, pretty please change your RSVP status on MeetUp to "Not Going" as soon as your plans change. I have limited sets of headphones and would love to avoid "no-shows" from excluding others who wish to join. THX.
- Please avoid asking others on a date during this event. My intention is to foster safe space to meet new people, hike, dance and FEEL the music. Please respect your fellow attendees. I remove members who aim to "pick-up". Please let me know if you are ever made uncomfortable by another during an event.
We would LOVE to have you join us …
