Yes, I think it was, despite the three day blizzard and the cops breaking up the party... ; )

Amazing shows, fabulous workshops, Ocean and Elizabeth, you two have done it again! Thank you so much for everything. I really enjoy the variety you gather for the shows, it is inspirational to get to see so many different acts!

    Thank you Satya for being here with your husband Will. We thouroghly enjoyed your performance Friday night, and yes, we do believe it was the best Elevation yet.

    Every year must be better than the previous, and we've already started making plans for how we can make Elevation 2010 the biggest and best yet!

    Thanks,
    Ocean and Elizabeth

    This was my first and hopefully not my last. Loved everything, the snow, the people, the shows, the french fries at the Buffalo bar including the lobster tank, my roommate (Dave), meeting new (Claire..thank for my new pants..)and seeing old faces(who remember me from other events) and all the kind words. Golden really revived my innner dance fairy. I have been feeling blah being in Arizona and coming to Golden and being part of this event really was spiritually up lifting. Everyone at Paprika rocks!!!! Thank you Ocean and Elizabeth for having me. I hope to return next year and even perform. For all the dancers I met and spoke with if there is anything you would like to see from Kyla's Keepsakes for next year I would love the input. Thank you, thank you , thank you!!!!!!!

      Kyla and Julianna,

      I truly agree with you and feel like this year's Elevation was spiritually uplifting and supportive.

      Some kind of magic happened and it seemed as if people cast aside their fears and frustrations and just lived in the fabulous moment of joy for dance and community.

      We are already planning the goings on for next year, and have dates: April 29-May 2nd.

      Put it on your calendars now!

      Love,
      Ocean and Elizabeth

        It really was such a wonderful experience! Everyone I met was amazing and wonderful, and performing for such an uplifting crowd was a true joy for a girl so far from home! Thank you, thank you Elizabeth, Ocean, and everyone that made such a wonderful weekend possible! And yes, Kyla, yay for meeting new and wonderful people!
        Hugs from Tennessee!

          it was Romka's first Elevation and I can't believe what we missed for so many years! It's a wonderful festival, and I'll say again that I've never seen a festival that had so many amazing, extremely committed and totally there for you people working at it! (I mean committed in the "I'll do whatever i need to help you sense...not the "need to be committed sense" lol.) *Everything* was so well run and there was such as sense of community!

          Thanks everyone for fabulous performances on friday and saturday and it was so awesome to feel the energy in the big room when everyone was taking workshops!

          Thanks "Elevation" -- every one of you!

    I agree with everything everyone has said. It really was an unbelievable weekend. And rather than dampening anyone's spirits, it's as if the crazy snow/rain (snain?) brought some sort of magic that just poured all over us, saturating everything with wonderfulness.

    It was so nice seeing all the lovely people, both those I've known for a while and those I just met. My only regret is that it seemed to be over so quickly. Next year can't come soon enough!

    I agree -- it was a great weekend! Ocean and Elizabeth -- and all the workers and instructors put in a lot of hard hard work and it showed. I enjoyed seeing tons of wonderful performances!!!!

    Also...while the weather was wild for us, I kind of liked be trapped up in golden with you guys....hahahaha. Fun time guys!!!!

    Thanks you Ocean and Elizabeth for all the hard work -- I know the energy it takes to put on events on a smaller scale so can imagine the energy this took! Thanks!!! Hope you guys are resting up a bit now.
