We’re back home and (almost) settled in after our exciting retreat last month in Tucson.

We were blessed with an amazing group of students and instructors – and the venue was incredible.

February weather can be a bit of a wild card, and it surely was. One moment it was sunny and warm in the eighties, and next, winter rolled in, painting a beautiful picture of the nearby mountains. But hey, it didn’t bother us at all! We were mostly snuggled up in the welcoming La Paloma Resort and Spa, crafting jewelry, making new friends, and simply enjoying our togetherness.

We’re thrilled to shout out our instructors for their incredible knowledge sharing and top-notch class delivery. Their hard work deserves a round of applause!

Our students had so much fun connecting and reconnecting with one another!

We added a few new after-hours gatherings to keep students busy each evening!

In the next few days, you’ll be receiving a link to a short survey related to our retreat in Tucson last month. It is completely anonymous – we use an outside source to conduct it for us. We would love it if you’d take a few minutes to fill it out and provide feedback. We can only improve if we know where to focus, and your honest opinions are valuable to us in doing just that.

Thank you in advance for your participation in the survey.

As always, we value your friendship and support of Vivi Magoo.

We do what we do because of you.

We love and value you, our Vivi Magoo family!
