Come out for a beach walk on Saturday in this gorgeous weather! And, if we’re lucky, we might get a few raindrops on the way! **😌PLEASE make sure to READ the instructions where to find parking and where to meet in the body of the text!🙌** **We start the walk on the sand by lifeguard tower 44** in Playa del Rey, then continue straight towards Balloona Creek and the Jetty, where the path is paved all the way to Fisherman’s Village in MDR. **The walk is flat for the most part.** The only hill to climb will be to get down and up from the beach and get to and from your car. **P distance is about 4.5 miles** **It takes about 40 minutes to walk each way.** **So here’s the attentive agenda:** 🌤️10:15 meet and greet at tower 44 🙌10:30 start the walk. 🎉11:15 reach Fisherman’s Village and have a smoothie, ice cream, a drink or a quick bite to eat and refresh- 🚶‍♀️Stroll and watch the boats and shops. Or just take a break! 😄11:45 Regroup and continue our walk back to tower 44 in PDR. 🏊‍♀️12:30pm Have a dip in the ocean! What can be better after a walk in the blazing sun!? Optional of course! And, of course anyone who wants to hang out at the beach after this or go for lunch can do so!🏝️☀️🌊🥣 I set the end time to 1pm- Just to have an end time!…. But you may stay longer or shorter. Each and everyone can see what they feel like at this point!🤗 I think it’s going to be an awesome day- And, Btw, The water is so warm and nice now! **What to bring:** First, pack lightly! And, bring a towel, swim suit, water to drink, snack/money to buy snack, sun protection: hat, sunglasses, sunscreen or what you usually feel you need in the sun. Remember to wear good walking shoes/sneakers that you have worn at least a few times. + An awesome attitude! **PARKING:** **Here is a landmark address. (It’s a residential address, So you have something to plug into your GPS.)** **127 Napoleon Street, Playa del Rey.** Find parking around Waterview or Napoleon. Waterview runs from East to West, Then Splits into two streets: Napoleon and Waterview. These streets run parallel down to Vista Del Mar, Which is the big street that runs along the ocean. Park where you can close to Waterview/Vista Del Mar or Napoleon/Vista Del Mar. **Exactly where to meet:** **When you have parked close to Napoleon or Waterview-** **Walk straight p the street until you hit Vista Del Mar.** **You will see the ocean in front of you.** **From Napoleon:** **Make a right on Vista Del Mar, walk about 100 yards to the stop light and cross walk.** **Cross Vista Del Mar, and walk down the walkway that’s on your left.** **Tower 44 is the closest guard tower.** **It’s slightly to the right (=North, towards Santa Monica)** **From Waterview:** **Continue straight to the bottom of Waterview, the stop light and cross walk in the intersection.** **Cross Vista Del Mar, and walk down the walkway that’s on your left.** **Tower 44 is the closest guard tower.** **It’s slightly to the right (=North, towards Santa Monica)**

From Los Angeles Hiking Group

Tickets available on a sliding scale at https://luma.com/0lmyycfd Ecstatic dance is a free-form, guided movement practice where there's no choreography, no steps to learn, and no wrong way to move — just you and the music, letting your body express whatever is alive in the moment. As a curated flow of sound moves you, it becomes meditation in motion: a way to release tension that words can't reach, feel into your emotions rather than think about them, and reconnect with the pure, uncomplicated joy of simply moving. Because there's no performance and no fixed outcome, each session is deeply personal, yet the shared container makes it powerfully collective — a safe, judgment-free space where you can be playful, expressive, and unpolished, and walk away feeling a little more like yourself than when you arrived.

8:30 DeathWalk - Relaxed & Casual

Tue, Sep 8, 3:30 PM

From DeathWalk

**DeathWalk** 8:30am ***LOW EFFORT***- **This walk is relaxed and we will stroll on the firm sand, no step count goal, just gently walking and talking next to the waves.** I am a death & end-of-life doula, in deathwork for the last nine years, and I'm inviting you to walk & talk with me for a deeply discounted price from my usual fees, in an effort to provide inexpensive death & grief support in my community. **Who is this group for?** \- Caregivers & providers for end\-of\-life care \- People with a terminal diagnosis AND their family & friends \- Fellow doulas and/or people who are interested in entering deathwork \- People who are grieving/suffering loss \- People considering MAiD or VSED \(including family\, friends\, & professionals who will support them\) **TW**: This group will discuss death & dying and will cover sensitive topics ranging the gamut from grief, sudden loss, terminal illness, MAiD (Medical Aid in Dying), etc. **Limit 5 per walk\*.** **Details:** *You must RSVP through MeetUp app to join these walks! Absolutely no drop-ins allowed as it is unfair to other participants.* Location is 1060 Pacific Coast Highway, Santa Monica, CA., Lot 4 North (4N). Though meetup starts at Lot 4N, you can park in 3N or 5N and walk to the meetup point easily. PLEASE park in the 15 minutes prior to start time so no one is waiting - walk begins promptly at 6:30am. PLEASE wear sunscreen & appropriate footwear. PLEASE bring any items you may need such as water, sunglasses, a hat, layers, chapstick, etc. We want to be comfy & undistracted so conversation can flow! *We'll use the wood walkway at Arizona bathrooms, near the SE end of Lot 3N, to walk down to the firm sand close to the shore.* **LOW EFFORT**\- This walk is relaxed and we will stroll on the firm sand\, no step count goal\, no specific distance \- just gently walking and talking next to the waves\. We will walk at Santa Monica beach & the pier will be in view\. We'll go down next to the shoreline where it's easier to walk\. The wave sounds will carry our conversation away\. This is the laid back walk & talk time slot\. *Bring baby powder or cornstarch if you'd like - it helps get the sand off your feet when we're done!* **IMPORTANT NOTE**: Anyone may turn around to leave the group at any time, as needed! No one is required to complete the whole distance if they cannot or do not want to. There are multiple parking lots along the beach and any participant may be dropped off at the meetup start, but be picked up anywhere along the way from another parking lot! Lastly, if you will be leaving early, please let me know so I can make sure I speak with you first. :) **All are welcome!** For this one, it will be harder to accommodate mobility aids (wheelchair, scooter, etc) but they can be accommodated to a point on the boardwalk - still, bear in mind that this is a walking event mostly in the sand & plan accordingly. [If walking is outside your capabilities but you still need doula support, you might consider the once-monthly park meetup on Saturdays instead OR a friend or family member might be able to come in your stead. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have questions about accommodation.] **If you join DeathWalk - you are entering into a tacit agreement: DeathWalk is a group for discussion, support, guidance, Q & A, and especially listening to each other. It is also for those who may not be ready to talk yet but need community to support loss. This group is a safe space for deep conversation and it is expected that everyone participating will exercise good listening skills, polite behavior (including staying quiet when you don't have something good to say), and discretion - these conversations are private, personal, and for us only, not intended for discussion outside the group.** \*\*\*\*\*5 person per walk limit is so that I can be attentive to every individual present & provide individual support & feedback during the time we have. Let's get our steps in & get into it. \~m
