Your co-facilitators are both deep in a training program to be certified SkyDancing Teachers and are currently SkyDancing Teachers in Training. The training that they have received through years of workshops, several weeks of participating and assisting at Love and Ecstasy Trainings, as well as their international teacher training – having recently studied with Margot Anand herself in Bali – has qualified them to offer the practices in this training.

Jim Macdonald has focused on tantra, dance, improvisation, and the chakras, working to create safer spiritual containers – particularly in a world where various traumas keep us from feeling either spiritual or safe. He offers in-person and online workshops, as well as coaching in tantra with his partner Christine through Pink Rose Tantra. Jim, located in Bozeman, Montana, is also a licensed Chakradance facilitator, having co-facilitated a “deep dive” seven-month course with the founder of Chakradance, Natalie Southgate. Moreover, he offers local free-flowing street dances while finding rejuvenation in nearby Yellowstone National Park.
