Post Kosmos '08

topic posted Mon, June 9, 2008 - 11:11 AM by  Dave
OK, I'll be the first to post about this year's Kosmos!
It was my first year,, and hopefully many more to follow! I came in as a member of the 40s and over crowd musician - non dancer. I had heard that previous years had been at a place more open and therefore potentially much hotter. Not having that history for comparison all I would say is that I was very impressed by the redwoods!! Wow! It was truly an honor to meet you people and do my work with music while meeting so many beautiful people, in such a beautiful setting!
Really, it was a special time!
I'll post some pics as soon as I get back home.
I love you guys!

    I completely agree with you, Dave! It was a marvelous weekend. An incredible community of people, endless wonderful music, AWEsome dancing, super yummy food, and an inspiring surrounding. Please post your photos. I brought a camera, but completely forgot to take any photos, too caught up meeting new people and having fun. =))

      I didn't bother bringing a camera. None of the pictures I took last year were anywhere NEAR as cool as the ones Brad took. I'm just going to see what he took :)

        Hehe, Brad was everywhere with that camera. There's some serious amount of photos to go through, I'm sure! But I can't wait to see the "yogami/yogagami" photos of Deb and I stretching before Ramon's class. =P

          I just finished downloading the memory cards to the computer.... some 5,000 frames to work through! Y'all were just too much fun! I've flipped through a few quickly and there's some gems for sure (such as Deb's yogagami).

          Be patient and I'll share as quick as possible.

              yah! can't wait to see the yogagami photos. especially the ones of BRAD upside down!

              yes, what a great weekend all around. Thanks to everyone for contributing to the bliss and joy of dancing, music, togetherness, and fun.
              i too, brought a camera, but was so engrossed in all the great classes, and having so much fun, that i didn't take it out much. Looking forward to seeing the memories through other people's lenses...

              until then:
              same time next year? who's with me?

                Much love to you all!

    I'm planning on posting all my thoughts from this year but am too tired right now. I have no clue why more people don't go!!! This was my second year and I was juiced just knowing I had Kosmos '09 to look forward to. Money is tight for us right now so I got to choose one event to attend this year and this was it! 4 days next year!! AWESOME!

    The new setting was really wonderful! And the food was much better than last year!
    So many lovely and talented people--it was hard to leave.

    Aubre--I, too, forgot to take pictures--





































































































































































    I really enjoyed myself this year: the new setting was perfect, the food was better than last year (can I have more spinach manicotti, please), the music at the firepit was great--esp. Friday night, the classes were fun (even the challenging cuban modern. . . talk about a fish out of water), and the beautiful and talented people there were such and honor to be with.
    Thank you everyone!

        Great to hear a lot of you had such a great time. I'm in the sweet hangover stage of the Kosmos experience where I feel rejuvenated spiritually. Much love to all of you. I'll be sending out an Email to all Kosmos goers by tomorrow....
