Parvati, Carey and Judy traveled to New Zealand in November 2025. We began our trip on the South Island hosted by Bree and Abbie. One Sunday there was a gathering of long-time Tara dancers to celebrate birthdays and dance together. We had the good fortune to meet at the Shambhala Retreat Center high up overlooking Tasman Bay. Our focus was the Eight Precious Offerings.
After traveling by ferry to Wellington we met up with Clare and travelled to Napier to meet with the local Tara Circle there. Parvati led a fabulous mandala weekend. Following the weekend we met on Monday and Tuesday to dance the Mandala Offering to Red Tara, Purification of Elements and Om Mani Peme Hung. And on Wednesday joined the weekly Tara Circle
What a nourishing and inspiring trip, dancing together and sharing the joy of these practices. Thank you to all who made the trip possible
