Community

Community is an overused word, but ours is a meaningful communion, a space of relationship-building, belonging, acceptance, play, and exploration. It is emergent, messy, and full of laughter and tenderness. Membership in this community is a declaration of relationship. What happens inside the membership membrane?

Community Hub Calls

We gather by videocall weekly on Sundays at 1pm Pacific: a clear consistent heartbeat of connection. We do new and trusty practices, we explore questions and edges, and we build deep trust and relationship over time. There's a living-room vibe of familiarity and safety going deeper than the average Practice Dojo experience. Varied members may spark, lead, or facilitate sessions in this leader-ful open-space playground collective.

Crews and Pods

Alongside and independently of our Hub congregating, we run small groups like our Pod Program. An IS "pod" typically consists of four people doing four calls together. Each participant gets a turn in the center, choosing a core practice like circling or casework. Self-led Crews are also invited to self-organize for any shared purpose and duration. For example, the "Arts in IS" crew currently meets monthly and shares a variety of creative explorations with one another.

How to join

To join, read more and apply here. Membership is free (always has been), and the light application-and-agreements membrane that defines membership exists to let us create openness and safety in our private cozyweb and manage our private data sharing. You're invited to attend a Connection Call for orientation purposes, yet if you've been to at least one Practice Dojo session previously, you probably have enough of the vibe to dive in if you prefer.
