CANDACE CALDWELL In 1979 Candace went to a week long massage workshop at Esalen Institute that changed her life and was inspired in 1983 to attend Scherer’s Academy of Natural Healing in Santa Fe, NM for the Massage Therapy Certification. In the following years, she has taken many classes, workshop & courses for continuing education, but her most important tools are the ones she started out with; her hands and her heart.
Candace has been blessed to study with the world renowned gong master, Don Conreaux, and conducts gong bath meditations and sound healing events for individuals, retreats and other groups. The first Monday of the month, she leads a gong bath meditation combined with the now weekly Deeksha (Oneness Blessing) for the Sedona community at Unity of Sedona. “I feel the gongs awaken the primal soul connections for it’s participants and when I play them, they play me right back, awakening my own heart and soul.”
DEREK DUJARDIN
Inspired by The Vagina Monologues, Derek founded The MENding Monologues, a male-focused performance group aimed at getting college-aged men to start courageous conversations with other men and audiences about the role that violence has played in their lives. Using true, first-person monologues, sketch comedy and hard-hitting slam poetry, the monologues takes their audience on an emotional and educational roller-coaster ride creating a “theatrepuetic” experience.
Derek speaks honestly about his own personal journey and transformation from an average guy who didn’t care or think much about gender violence into a passionate activist. Through storytelling, humor and authentic sharing and fresh insights, Derek helps men get out of their heads and into their hearts to speak out against gender violence.
