Otter Dance Norway to Iceland

July 17 – 25, 2018

We are offering to our community and friends-of a chance to travel together as we make our way from the Fire Dance location on the island of Tro, Norway to the Fire Dance location at Mount Esjan, Iceland. In between these dances we will take time to explore the beautiful land and sea-scapes of the Arctic circle between the coast of Norway and Iceland. In exchange for a small fee for our organizers plus the shared costs of lodging and group transport, we invite all to join us. Come for all or part of our journey together through the beautiful, pristine Northern parts of our globe as we co-create this experience together.

Please RSVP to Robbie’s apprentice, Sarah Hemphill @ sarah.hemphill@gmail.com.
