A Gaian folk-song circle gathering for all ages and experience levels
Come sing together in Costa Rica at beloved Finca Amrta
Cantando la Vida for registration and tickets $300 or 151,000 colones
For Cantando la Vida we create together a sacred container, so to practice peace, to practice healing. We are a singing people who carry a world of song traditions through our hearts: Gaian folk-songs, plant-medicine, rainbow, kirtan, choir, traditional, et al. CLV is a ceremony for the cross pollination, exchange, and strengthening of our sacred vocal traditions. We maintain a vibration of light to nourish our deep desire to sing, to live our heart songs’ teachings!
What is CLV? A 3 day song village for the singing confident, the singing curious, and all those wishing to simply be. We are learning and teaching one another’s heart songs, camping, and eating organic prepared meals together, river swimming, and growing through life fed on love, at beautiful Finca Amrita (10 minutes from San Isidro).
Hope to see you in this magical land

*~**~**~* WHAT is a SONG VILLAGE *~**~**~*
Our song village is what happens when people come genuinely together in deep gratitude to sing, celebrate, and live for a while. So that we can welcome in song and spirit as we do one another, our village is a non-performance space where instruments are in service to the voice. We listen with our hearts to share and sing together the words that make the world. We are the village; what we bring, what we do, what we carry, sing, we create this together!

We do not offer day passes for this event. Cantando la Vida is a ceremonial space and container meant to be held together for the duration. Although people are free to come and go as they please, we encourage people to come and stay.
Partial Event Policy
Our partial event policy is that everyone purchases full tickets and will be refunded for the time that you either missed (Sunday arrival) or after which you’ve left the gathering (Departure on Sunday)! This is usually completed by the third day afterwards.
We have no problem issuing this refund! No processing fee from our end, either. This way makes it easier in case the decision is made to stay longer 😉 You must check out with Registration or Rosie. Thank you for understanding, family!
