Buckskin Revolution Online Skills Gathering
Ancestral Skills Gatherings are where I got my start in a lot of the skills I teach today, and remain an important part of how I share them with the world. With all gatherings in the spring and summer of 2020 cancelled, I have been hard at work coming up with a way to bring the skills to the people, as they can no longer come to the skills. My solution:
Buckskin Revolution Online Skills Gathering
Immersive Gathering Option: June 1-5, 2020
Schedule: Daily Morning circle, 2 Class Sessions, morning and afternoon, with multiple class options per session. Daily Interactive Evening Circle via Zoom. Other classes taught via recorded video, with Real-time messaging and Q&A during. Daily Interactive “Evening circle” via Zoom for more Q&A and sharing stories and reflections. Zoom calls will be grouped into time-zone appropriate calls. Closing Circle Evening of June 5. Flexible scheduling, see note below
On-going Gathering Options: Beginning June 1, 2020
Choose 1 full day of classes per week for 5 wks or 1 half day session per week for 10 wks.
A less interactive option as viewing schedules will vary. Q&A will still be possible but not be real-time during classes. We will have several scheduled Zoom calls, dates to be determined.
Scheduling: Classes are pre-recorded. While there is a class schedule, (sent out before each session) links to the classes will be active for a full week after each class goes on-line. Watching them at their scheduled times mean I will be watching along with you and available for real time online chatting and Q&A, but you can also watch and re-watch them anytime within the week after their release, so that the gathering can be adapted to your schedule.
Themes and Classes
The courses are arranged similar to those at skills gatherings, with basics early on and more advanced and complex themes as the week continues. Schedule is still evolving and may grow. Material list will be sent after registering, and a detailed class schedule just before the gathering starts.
