Costa Rica Green Residency: TWO WEEK PACKAGE Intensive [April 18 - May 2, 2021]
April 18 - May 2, 2021
This year, Momentom Collective is evolving in response to our world’s current state and joining forces with Punta Mona with the intention to train the problem solvers of the future in a simpler, more regenerative way of living.
Punta Mona and Momentom Collective come together to create one of the world’s most unique and nourishing experiences in embodied movement, community living, and permaculture design.
Launched in 1997, Punta Mona is now home to over 300 different varieties of tropical fruit and nut trees, root crops, medicinal and flowering plants, herbs and vegetables.
This artist residency will provide body and mind regeneration through healthy organic eating straight from the farm, fresh water, healing arts, and movement schedule.
The program will also provide the opportunity to learn relevant life skills such as permaculture, herbalism, wild crafting and other aspects of autonomous living.
At all times, artists and creative entrepreneurs will have access to inspiring co-working and training spaces to develop their own projects.
The full length residency is designed to provide a buffet-style experience where residents can get a taste of all of what Momentom and Punta Mona have to offer, as both are experts in their respective fields: Punta Mona in Permaculture and Momentom in Movement arts. After the first two weeks of buffet style scheduling, residents then have the opportunity to specialize and go deeper in their prospective fields of interest.
You, coming in for the 3 or 4th one week intensive, will be invited to choose two areas of focus alongside the one month residents, one movement and one permaculture specialization. Expert teachers will lead residents into their specialization of choice, with a series of progressive courses designed to provide an intensive experience & skill acquisition.
Momentoms offerings will include workshops meant to cultivate our artistic practices and to guide us in our cultivation of the daily rituals, practices, and focuses that lead us toward the optimal mind, body, and expression. Fields of studies in Movement include Performing Arts, Aerial Silks, Flow Arts, Partner Dance, Slackline, Acroyoga or Kung Fu.
The permaculture workshops by Punta Mona will vary based on what kind of stewardship the land is needing, ongoing projects, and what’s in season. Expect experiences in farm to table cuisine, fermentation, regenerative farming, nutrition, herbalism, gardening, eco-building, homesteading and wild crafting.
As we learn and grow together as a community, we will participate in weekly authentic relating, community circles and conscious relationship workshops. Through these intentional community spaces, we will support each other in our journey of knowledge integration, project actualization, and finding oneself through community living and in relationship to the sacred other. We will invite new patterns of connection and realization of service to the whole.
We will focus our attention on the essential needs of our communities and design our future world in harmony with nature. We are stepping outside of the matrix. We are creating the new earth.
