Money 101 Longmont
6:15 p.m.
Copper Sky Distillery, 110 Emery St. Ste. C
**Dinner is included for those who RSVP**
We all go to school for 12 to 16 years to learn reading, writing, and arithmetic, but never learn anything about How Money Works! You are invited to our FREE workshop called "Money 101".
This is not a sales seminar, but an educational setting. Bring a notepad, grab some dinner, and hear EVP Ed Judd will present the fundamental principles of money. So you know what to expect: Let me tell you three things you won't ever see in our class. We NEVER have a sign-in sheet! We believe that our information is vital & valuable so we don't need to hunt you down, we like to work with volunteers.
We NEVER sell anything! We don't push any books, CDs, or self-help kits. We NEVER pressure appointments! When it's time to get up and leave, you just go. Learn how to grow and PROTECT your assets for college funding, retirement planning, or simply wealth accumulation – with money you never knew you had...
**This is a sponsored event and is not an open networking event.**

ÉKSTASIS Ecstatic Dance Longmont
5p.m.
SOL 19 Yoga, 1350 Ken Pratt Blvd.
We are so happy to bring EKSTASIS to Sol19 for its third iteration and just like a good snowball, the energy is building with each new turn.
Ecstatic Dance Longmont is a sacred community dance where we share in opening a portal to the divine in which our bodies release and move energy, our spirits play and soar, and where a connection to a greater purpose and community can be sensed. The word ecstasy derives from the ancient Greek word EKSTASIS which can be defined as "to stand outside or transcend oneself." For time immemorial, dance has been used as a form of meditation and healing.
DJ Tracy Rose is a part of the Conscious Dance community in Boulder, and is excited to bring you fresh rhythms and high vibe frequencies to stoke your inner flame.
Angela Rose, intuitive and healer, who considers dance as medicine, guides the opening circle in a meditation.
No experience is necessary, only a call from within to shake off what is ready to be unearthed and dissolved.
This is an unscripted, free-flowing dance with only the highest intention to connect you to you, and expand outward to this beautiful community.
We can not wait to see you there. Not waiting three months till the next one, just few short weeks away and wahat... 2023 yes, let's do this and start things off right.
