Bigger, Better, Bolder Miss Bachata & Miss Salsa
**Welcome to Miss Bachata & Miss Salsa!**
**Spring is in the air, and with it comes the promise of new beginnings, fresh energy, and the joy of connection!** As the season of renewal unfolds, we invite you to step into the rhythm of community, dance, and celebration at Miss Bachata & Miss Salsa.
My objective has always been to create a different kind of social gathering—one that is open, non-judgmental, and safe. A place where you can meet people just like you, where socializing and dancing come together to help build community and tear down the walls that separate us. Here, we make new friends, feel a sense of belonging, and enjoy the calmness that comes from knowing we are in a safe and welcoming space.
Many times, I have been asked, “Why host an event on Monday night?” Many people escape on the weekend and dread Mondays when they return to work. I believe that if you dance and socialize on a Monday, you infuse your week with joy and positive energy, giving your life balance and helping you face your challenges with enthusiasm and confidence.
We’re also thrilled to announce that our trial of advanced Bachata lessons, which began last September, has been a resounding success! Building on this momentum, we’re excited to offer an enhanced schedule for 2026. Our dance evenings will now feature three hours of classes: one hour of beginner to intermediate Bachata, one hour of advanced Bachata, and one hour of beginner to intermediate Salsa. As always, the entrance fee remains $15 for a night of 2 lessons and social dancing. For those interested in the advanced Bachata lessons, there will be an additional $5 fee.
Here’s our updated schedule:
**Miss Bachata – Main Ballroom**
🕖 7:00 pm – 8:00 pm: Beginner to Intermediate Bachata Lesson (No partner required)
🕗 8:00 pm – 12:00 am: Social Dancing
**Miss Salsa – Round Room**
🕖 7:00 pm – 8:00 pm: Advanced Bachata Lesson (+$5) **NEW**
🕗 8:00 pm – 9:00 pm: Beginner to Intermediate Salsa Lesson
🕘 9:00 pm – 12:00 am: Social Dancing
✨ **Additional Details:**
✔️ Free Parking
✔️ Full Bar (Free Water, Beer: $5.75)
Over the past decade, organizing Latin dancing events in Mississauga has been a labor of love. Our mission has always been to foster a sense of community, proving that the connections we share are far stronger than the differences that divide us.
Loneliness is a growing concern, with over half of U.S. adults and many Canadians experiencing its effects. The COVID-19 pandemic has only heightened this issue. Harvard University's long-term study on happiness, which began in 1938, highlights the detrimental impact of loneliness on health. People with strong social connections experience slower mental and physical decline and greater overall happiness compared to those who are isolated.
Here are some key findings from the study:
🌿 Close ties help delay mental and physical decline more than money, fame, social class, IQ, or genetics.
🌿 Relationship satisfaction is a better predictor of aging well than cholesterol levels in middle age.
🌿 A strong sense of community improves memory function.
🌿 Loneliness can be as harmful to health as smoking or alcoholism.
And there’s hope! Strengthening our relationships and supporting community initiatives can combat loneliness and build healthier, happier lives. Miss Bachata & Miss Salsa provides a wonderful opportunity to make new friends, expand your social circle, and enjoy a safe, welcoming, authentic environment. Bring your open heart and a smile, and we’ll take care of the rest.
🌸 **Cheers to a season of renewal, joy, and community!** 🌸

What Can I Do? Invoking Our Sacred Warrior Inner Archetype
**Sunday\, April 19\, 2026 \| 7:00 PM** (doors open 6:45 PM)
**Hybrid Event —** in person at Toronto Theosophical Society, 792 Glencairn Ave., North York
**Join online via Zoom:** [https://us02web.zoom.us/j/88064619247?pwd=0WvJAiLDKyQXu6bi0UmlMOkgjmVg59.1](https://us02web.zoom.us/j/88064619247?pwd=0WvJAiLDKyQXu6bi0UmlMOkgjmVg59.1)
Free and open to the public
**What Can I Do? Invoking our Sacred Warrior Archetype**
In times of collective suffering and moral uncertainty, it's easy to fall into helplessness, rage, or inconsolable grief — responses that are deeply understandable, yet quietly paralyzing. This evening, we turn to a more demanding and more fruitful question: **What is *my* place in the work of personal and collective renewal?**
We'll explore this question across four interconnected dimensions:
* inner psychological work,
* spiritual practice as service,
* authentic relational dialogue, and
* practical action in the world.
Each of these plays a distinct role in the broader process of healing — and the evening is designed to show how they reinforce and complete one another.
Rather than staying purely in the realm of ideas, we'll move into direct experience. The highlight of the evening will be a hands-on introduction to KORASOMI — a synthesis of the Korason Method for Authentic Voice & Dialogue and Hakomi — a mindfulness- and somatic-based practice for invoking the "Sacred Warrior" archetype within each of us. Through conscious sound, authentic movement, and chakra work, Hugh will guide us in learning a technique you can take home and continue to practice on your own.
Underlying the whole evening is a simple but radical invitation: to refuse dehumanization, to act without hatred, and to understand that rebuilding integrity — personal or collective — is work each of us carries a small but real portion of.
**About the speaker:**
Hugh Smiley has been walking a path of inner inquiry, healing, and service for over four decades. His journey began early — shaped by his father's healing hands, a classical music training that led to his ARCT from the Royal Conservatory of Toronto at 17, and a deepening interest in spiritual and metaphysical studies that ignited during his university years, including a budding fascination with esoteric astrology.
A pivotal chapter unfolded while living among indigenous peoples in Paraguay, where Hugh began meditating in nature and developed a healing practice rooted in shamanic chanting, bodywork, knowledge of the chakras, and the subtle bodies. This synthesis eventually gave rise to the Korason Method for Authentic Voice and Dialogue — a body-based, heart-centred approach to authentic expression and deep listening that he has since taught in 10 countries across 4 continents.
Hugh trained directly with Ron Kurtz, founder of the Hakomi Method — a somatic-oriented, mindfulness-based approach to assisted self-discovery — becoming certified as both therapist and teacher. His therapeutic work weaves together Hakomi, the Korason Method, dreamwork, shamanic journey, gestalt, and an understanding of the subtle anatomy, creating a rich inner landscape for healing and self-knowledge.
In 1988, following an inner vision, Hugh co-created Heartsong Hill — a 50-acre forested retreat on Georgian Bay — where eight years of transformative teaching and learning unfolded. He later completed a degree in Peace and Conflict Studies at the University of Toronto, and was awarded the Beattie Scholarship to research dialogue methods with NGOs in Cairo, which led to the founding of NACAD, the New AndaLuz Centre for Authentic Dialogue. He is currently supporting youth peace-building efforts with the ROHI Foundation in Cameroon.
Hugh continues to offer counselling, creative voicework, and meditation coaching in Toronto, and leads a biweekly Mindful Circle online. His life's work is a living example of how inner transformation and outer service are not separate — but two expressions of the same journey.

COLUMBUS SPIRITUALITY MEETUP
We are excited to host Guided Meditations on Sundays at 6 pm in our Ashram/Gallery/Home! !! !!
Everyone wants to know what kind of God we worship and what kind of meditation we do. We worship the GOD that LOVES US! We understand that god is an energy and it lives in us as us. Our meditations guide others to actually experience that energy! xoxo We don't just talk about peace, love and affection, we experience it :)
Also we are a home not a business, so we enjoy building community one friend at a time. We always build in time for people to mingle & develop friendships! xoxo Much Love, Frank Tennyson
Namaste, Frank Tennyson

Psychic Development Series II - Pueo Group
Private Group. Closed to the Public
Knowing ourselves and understanding our abilities is the first step toward wielding our gifts with control and accuracy.
In subsequent classes we will verify and hone our talents with activities and discussion. These are hands-on workshops and participation is expected.
The goal of our series will be to develop expertise in areas of particular interest such as mediumship, channeling, divination, healing and, etc.. Our ultimate directions will be determined by class members as we evolve.
I look forward to sharing and discovering with you. - Cynthia

This month's prompt concerns the idea of the “warrior philosopher” (seemed appropriate in these times)--that is someone whose understanding of violence, power, and justice is forged through direct experience of war. We are looking at Major General Smedley D. Butler, a highly decorated U.S. Marine raised in a Quaker (pacifist) tradition who later became a prominent critic of American militarism (there is a wonderful biography of Gen. Butler called "Gangsters of Capitalism")
Butler's argument in *War Is a Racket* (1935): that many U.S. interventions were driven less by national defense than by corporate and financial interests, with Butler portraying himself as an enforcer for business and Wall Street. We can consider the moral ambiguity of his insider critique—whether complicity strengthens or undermines credibility and also consider some of the concrete reforms he proposed (e.g., “conscript” capital before soldiers, restrict the military to coastal defense, and have only those who fight decide on war).
Butler’s life arc clearly changed from pacifist upbringing to warrior to antiwar crusader—and asks whether true understanding of peace requires firsthand knowledge of war, and what that implies about the cost of suffering. So do we need to suffer to understand suffering? Do we have to experience war to appreciate peace? As one more question: in the movie "A Few Good Men" Jack Nicholson's character says that "you have the luxury of not knowing what I know" so do most of us go through life oblivious to real violence and suffering? See you at Drunken Philosophy!
