Dear NAMA Members,
It is with heavy hearts that the NAMA Board of Directors has decided to cancel the NAMA conference being held at the Art of Living Retreat Center in Boone, N.C. We believe it would not be safe at this time to gather a group this size with the risks of the Corona Virus still spreading. Your safety is our greatest concern.
NAMA and the Art of Living Retreat Center are offering full refunds to all registered participants. These could take a few weeks to process but we will get to everyone. The NAMA Board of Directors has decided to run the event as an on-line summit at a discounted rate during April 24-26th and the staff are working hard to set up the details. Please contact Art of Living directly at reservations@aolrc.org to expedite your room refund. ARLOC will be reaching out with special offers to NAMA guests that would like to come another time.
For those that have already registered we are working on a process for each of you to apply your registration fees toward the online event. We will be sending details as soon as we have the systems set up. Please give us a few weeks to manage the logistics. We will be in direct contact with all of you, so keep an eye out for our emails.
This conference has always been considered one of our most valued benefits to our membership and has served as a precious time for celebrating Ayurveda together as a community. We intend to do our best to make the online event a space that reinforces our connections to each other and Ayurveda.
We know we can’t do this without your support. We are deeply grateful for the flexibility the Art of Living Retreat Center has shown us. We have already committed to holding our conference there in 2022. (We will be in Tucson in 2021.) We will send follow up emails as soon as we have more information and will post the same on the website. We humbly ask for your patience.
Namaste and please be well.
