Please note I have created a Tribe as a place where we can all ask / answer questions and post Pictures concerning the Retreat. Please visit and register at http//tribes.tribe.net/emeraldsanctuarybellydanceretreat

Come join us for a weekend of belly dance, middle eastern music & Magick near a pristine chain of lakes, freshwater marshes, and magnificent basalt rock formations. The 5th Annual Emerald Sanctuary Retreat will be held at Camp Delany in Sun Lakes State Park near Coulee City. The weekend includes workshops which are tailored for ALL dancer levels, an evening hafla, shopping, relaxation, and celebration of the dance. The retreat is a benefit, and a generous portion of the registration will be donated to the wetlands. (the Emerald Sanctuary Retreat is not affiliated with the Emerald Rain competition)

Workshops

Workshops will be held outside in the grassy field or inside the main building at the preference of the instructor. If the weather does not permit they will be held indoors (but we don't see that happening!). Workshops are designed for ALL levels of dancers.
