Sexuality and Consciousness Educators Conference

Second Annual African
Sexuality and Consciousness Educators Conference
3 - 5 December 2010
Kalk Bay, Cape Town

Conference aim

This conference is an opportunity for networking, sharing and support amongst African and international participants who are either working in, or interested to work in the fields of sexuality and consciousness. Last year's conference produced some cutting edge, rare presentations and invaluable networking and exchange between professionals and students directly involved with sexuality as a vehicle for consciousness. This year, we are hoping to include a broader range of participants from fields including large group consciousness training programmes, sexual psychology, sexual health counciling, meditation and yoga teaching, African traditional healing and the arts in all their expressions.

The conference is arranged by South African delegates in collaboration with BabaDez from Sedona Temple in Arizona. For details please visit http://sedonatemple.com/2010-africa-conference.php All information on costs and booking procedures can be found on this link.

We are calling for presenters to send paper proposals to the conference organizer (see details below.) As proposals get accepted, they will be reflected on this page. So please visit regularly to get updates on conference news.

Venue: The Forge, 12 Windsor Rd Kalk Bay

This year's conference will be held in the historic and pictoresque fisherman's village of Kalk Bay. Kalk Bay and environs is home to many of Cape Town's bohemians, free intellectuals, dancers, meditators, yogis, etc. The streets are lined with fabulous coffee shops and eateries looking out over a splendid ocean.

Places to Stay

We have reserved the magnificent Ocean's Echo villa in nearby Fish Hoek for the dates of the conference and Dez's training afterward. Preference will be given to participants who also attend the training. Cost is R300 per day. Book early to avoid disappointment
