Parties and Social Events

Once you have completed a Human Awareness Institute "Love, Intimacy and Sexuality" workshop, many options open up to you to do further workshops and to stay in contact with others.

One of the things that people love about our workshops is that when you go home on Sunday night, that doesn't have to mean it's over. Many people who have done the workshop want more of this kind of deep honesty and intimacy in their lives, so they stay in contact with each other. We give out a contact list of those who participated including the staff after each workshop to help facilitate your continued connection. We also organize parties so that people who have taken a HAI workshop can continue socializing and enjoy being with each other. The parties are open to those who have taken a workshop and their friends. If you haven't taken a workshop yet and would like to attend a party, you'll need to get someone who has taken a workshop to invite you.

Below is our current party list. Parties are open only to those who have taken a HAI workshop and their guests. The location and directions are located on a password protected page.
