Annual Retreat and Course for Teachers
in Ojai, California
June 22nd – July 1st 2012
The Krishnamurti Education Center (KEC)
Re-envisioning Education and the Craft of Teaching
You are invited to spend 9 days in the former home of Krishnamurti exploring with fellow educators what it means to meet the questions and challenges Krishnamurti put to teachers, parents, and schools - as we face them in our everyday lives as educators.
The daily program includes readings, videos, dialogues, role play, classroom observation (film excerpts), reflective writing, vegetarian group meals, walks in nature, and time for reflection and silence.
The KEC and the Pepper Tree Retreat are nestled in the Ojai foothills on 11 acres of orange and avocado orchards, with both gentle walks and rugged hikes available in the surrounding nature. The Pepper Tree Retreat has ten guest rooms in a vintage 1910 farmhouse, and several cottages. Reduced rates are available for participants of the retreat/course. Some scholarships available.
(Professional Development credits available through the University of California.)

This sounds like a dream. When's the next one, please? Also, is it open to workshop facilitators as well as teachers? I run a lot of workshops in schools.
