Let’s meet!
There is a lot going on in the world. We cannot do it all. Not to mention: the times are urgent… we must slow down. That being said, we would still like you to know about some of the electrifying, worlds-worlding, side-eye-glancing, upside-down and inside-out events and occurrences that ten is hosting, supporting or uplifting.

Imaginal: Cultivating the Visionary Self
{ten Kinship Event}
WHO: Alixa Garcia
WHEN: Saturday, January 24th – Sunday, May 31st
WHERE: Online everywhere (in-person option upon completion)
It begins with the body – the first territory we can liberate. Imaginal is a six-month journey including communion with the body, supporting the remembrance of nature as the ultimate creative force, and the cultivation of a liberatory imaginal praxis. Imaginal supports disidentification from the inherited colonial language that has captured thoughts and imagination using decolonial and creative somatics to bring bodily awareness to our imagination praxis. After completing the online course, participants may join an in-person gathering in the sacred landscapes of Peru for an additional cost.

Journey through Grief
{ten Kinship Event}
WHO: Lama Rod Owens
WHEN: March 2026 – March 2027
WHERE: Online Everywhere
In the tradition of spiritual abolition, grief is understood to be a teacher and partner, helping us to recognize that grief is the tension we feel as something changes, forcing us to figure out who we are in this shifting. And grief is the uncomfortable experience of not getting what we want. Mourning is how we tend to grief – through expressing the experience of discomfort, ambiguity, somatic embodiment, and ritual. Join Lama Rod for this spiritual abolitionist journey where they will rely on the wisdom of Tantric Buddhism, African spirituality, the Black Prophetic tradition, American Indigenous traditions, & sacred herbalism to understand and experience why our full embodiment of freedom must center tending to our broken hearts while invoking real joy to hold the labor of liberation.

What the Earth Is Teaching Us About Change
{Báyò event}
WHO: Centre for Social Innovation
WHEN: Wednesday, May 13th | 7:00pm EDT
WHERE: Centre for Social Innovation | 192 Spadina Avenue | Toronto |Ontario | Canada
Rather than urging us to move faster or work harder to fix the world, Báyò asks a more unsettling and generative question: What if the transformations we seek require us to ‘slow down’, and learn anew from a world migrating from the conveniences of systemic legibility? On May 13th, you’re invited to gather at the Centre for Social Innovation for an evening of reflection and conversation with Báyò as we explore what it might mean to navigate this moment of planetary transition with humility, imagination, and care.
Learn more about the fireside chat, as well as an opportunity to attend a private dinner with Báyò here. To purchase a ticket to livestream the event, click here.

Celebrating Not Knowing
{ten Kinship Event}
WHO: Nose to Nose
WHEN: Sunday, July 26th – Friday, July 31st
WHERE: Peredur Centre | West Hoathly Road | West Sussex | East Grinstead | UK
In a world that often demands certainty, how can we embrace the unknown with openness, curiosity, and playfulness? How can we hold space for deep inquiry, creative exploration, and embodied wisdom? Celebrating Not Knowing is an immersive retreat that invites participants to explore personal, social, and systemic transformation through three unique but interconnected modalities: Social Presencing Theater (SPT), Clowning, and Courage & Renewal Practices. It is a rare opportunity to engage with three internationally recognized facilitators — Arawana Hayashi, Vivian Gladwell, and Penny Williamson — each bringing a distinct yet complementary approach to accessing insight and resilience through embodied practice, deep listening, and clowning improvisation.
