In Person Tasting With tercero wines owner and winemaker Larry Schaffer
This is going to be a very special event!
tercero wines is the brainchild of Larry Schaffer, who is the owner and winemaker. Larry did not start out in the wine industry – most who are in it do not – but his past has led him to exactly where he is and should be. And Larry definitely has a different and unique outlook on the wine world and on communicating about wine with all of his customers, regardless of knowledge or experience.
tercero wines concentrates on small lot, hand crafted wines using grapes exclusively from leading Santa Barbara County vineyards and works with grapes from nearly every AVA within the county. Though his main concentration is working with rhone varieties, Larry remains curious and therefore also works with pinot noir, gewurztraminer, cabernet franc, and a few other fun and interesting grapes. And therein lies the beauty of Santa Barbara County.

This weekly class is part workshop, part yoga club—a space to explore the art and science of physical postures together. Each session works progressively toward intermediate and advanced shapes, breaking them down step by step so you can understand the mechanics, build strength and flexibility, and safely expand your practice.

Book Launch for Mona Shomali’s Water Mamas
Join us to celebrate the launch of Groundfloor member Mona Shomali’s new book WATER MAMAS!
This event is free and open to the public.
The Amazon is dying. What price is too high to save it?
In a not-so-distant future, the Earth's lungs are failing. A United Nations representative, Afa, finds herself deep in the parched heart of the Amazon, facing the ultimate ethical dilemma. Her mission: secure consent from indigenous tribes to start a rain seeding program. Rain cloud technology promises to reverse the ravages of climate change, to breathe life back into the global rainforests.
But here, in the ancient heart of their lands, consent is not merely a formality; it's enshrined in human rights law. Her initial confidence crumbles in Guyana, where the very idea of man-made rain strikes at the core of Indigenous mythology and spirituality. It’s a clash of worlds—Western science versus ancestral wisdom—with the fate of the global climate hanging precariously in the balance.
Amidst this complex crisis, Afa's journey becomes intensely personal. Navigating the pressures of her career and the complexities of an unexpected romance, she is forced to confront what she truly believes is right for her own life.
This is more than a story of technology versus tradition. It’s a gripping exploration of climate crisis, social justice, and the profound power of belief. Follow Mona Shomali as she masterfully weaves together her expertise in Indigenous Human Rights and Environmental Science, challenging us to consider what it means to make the "right" decision when the world is teetering on the edge.
Author bio: Mona Shomali is an Iranian American author and artist driven by a singular purpose: to explore how we navigate competing morals and worldviews. Her unique background, steeped in Indigenous Human Rights and Environmental Science, informs her brush and her prose.
Mona's journey, into the heart of the Amazon, started with her pivotal research work on the Sarayacu vs. Ecuador case in the Inter-American Court of Human Rights. She worked on behalf of the Sarayacu tribe who was suing the state of Ecuador for illegally allowing drilling on their ancestral land without consent. Having lived and worked with tribes in Guyana and Brazil, Mona has dedicated her career to teaching and sharing the crucial juxtapositions and cultural challenges inherent in Western environmentalism.
As an adjunct faculty member at The New School, Pace, and NYU, her courses were focused on Indigenous human rights, resource conflicts in the Amazon, International environmental governance, and environmental justice. She also taught ecology at the New York Botanical Garden.
Now based in Oakland, California, Mona's figurative paintings, like those in her "Invisible Stains" collection (including Water Mamas's cover art), embody her commitment to these vital global conversations.

From Saving to Growing: A Healing Approach to Investing
This workshop is for women and people of color who:
- Have extra cash they want to invest, but have been afraid, shamed or overwhelmed with how to start
- Are mystified but curious about the basics of investing (aka making money while you sleep!)
OR
- Want to learn about investing as a tool for clarity, freedom and empowerment (even if you’re not quite there yet!)
What to Expect:
In this healing-centered experience, together we’ll:
- Learn about the basics of investing through fun analogies
- Get questions answered (or at least tools to answer them!)
- Have an opportunity to make your very first investment LIVE! Woot!
- Strengthen your sense of agency and empowerment
About Jane!
This series is guided by my training as a certified healing-centered facilitator and my lived experience as a daughter of immigrants, a once long-time underpaid Oakland educator, and someone who has learned to invest, save, and spend in ways that feel both financially abundant and emotionally healing. I’ve been a “lazy investor” for 17 years now and continue to practice healing my own relationship with money. I’d love to support you in doing the same!
Whether or not investing feels aligned for you right now, I believe that having access to this knowledge is an equity issue – and one I am deeply passionate about addressing.

Winter Season Clothing & Gift Swap
Hi all! Clean out your closets, drawers, and storage spaces to swap clothing & odds and ends with fellow Groundfloor members.
This is an event where members can bring lightly used, clean clothing & potential gifts, thingamajiggers, baubles, and accessories (sartorial & otherwise) and swap with other members, who would value the products.
My hope is up-cycling for clothes & gifts before the winter & holiday season, similar to the closet clean event last April 🙂
Also: no need to take if you don’t want, or bring anything if you have nothing to give away ♾️
Thank you!

Women’s Circle - Reclaim Your Sensual Spark
Reclaim Your Sensual Spark in a world that is constantly draining you.
After long days of deadlines, endless emails, and being “on” all the time, it’s easy to feel burned out and disconnected from yourself. This 90-minute workshop is your invitation to slow down, breathe, and drop back into your body.
Through guided breathwork, movement, and sensory practices, you’ll reconnect with your sensual spark - the part of you that feels and experiences life fully. When we lose touch with our sensuality, we lose access to joy, creativity, and presence. By reclaiming your sensual spark, you’ll discover a natural antidote to stress and overwhelm.
This experience will leave you feeling grounded, alive, and recharged with more energy, ease, and connection to carry into your everyday life.
No experience necessary - just come as you are.

Heart of Us: Empathy Circle
We all need a space to be heard without judgment. Empathy Circle is that place.
Each month, we practice NVC-style empathy in small groups. One person shares something they're working through. Everyone else listens and reflects back what they hear—the feelings, the needs underneath. Not advice. Not solutions. Just presence.
What You Get from Receiving Empathy:
- Clarity about what you're actually feeling and needing
- Release of emotional tension
- The experience of being truly heard
What You Get from Offering Empathy:
- Deeper listening and attunement skills
- The chance to support someone meaningfully
- Authentic connection
- A break from your own head
What Happens
We start with a brief intro to the practice (no experience needed). Then we break into small groups where each person gets time to share while others practice empathy. We keep the group small so everyone gets attention.
Bring something real from your life. Bring your willingness to listen and be listened to.
About Me
I'm Shu. I've been teaching Nonviolent Communication for five years and I'm training in mediation and Internal Family Systems. I help people navigate conflicts and have the conversations they've been avoiding.
Free for GroundFloor members • $20 for public

Afternoon Bliss Yoga Nidra
Join this class to completely relax and bliss out the mind and body.

As you relax in savasana, this ancient practice leads you through the five layers of self (pancha maya kosha), awakening your innate wisdom and inviting a profound sense of wholeness. By accessing delta brainwaves, the state responsible for deep healing and restoration, Yoga Nidra allows your mind and body to regenerate while awake, offering a powerful path to clarity, balance, and inner healing. Your Yoga Nidra practice will support you to feel well-rested even if you are not getting consistent or deep sleep. It will guide you into a deeply relaxed physical state while grounding you back into your body and may improve sleep by reducing stress and pain.
Gentle sounds of crystal bowls and chimes will accompany the journey, enhancing relaxation and deepening your connection within. Through breath, visualization, sound and effortless stillness, you’ll enter a space where healing and insight unfold naturally. Come ready to rest, restore, and reconnect with the essence of your being. This is a non-movement guided meditation class.

Business Club (Connect + Collab)
Business Club is a monthly networking and peer mentoring opportunity for all professionals and creatives to connect, exchange ideas, and problem solve over their morning cuppa.
The meetings are facilitated by Sophie Davies to ensure everyone has equal time to introduce themselves and ask for what they need.
How it works: After introductions the group breaks out into smaller groups to allow everyone to share “an ask” through peer mentoring with your makeshift advisory board. “Your ask” can be a specific idea that you need feedback on or a challenge you need help with.
This work-related inclusive club is for everyone who understands that while we tend to work individually, we regularly encounter the same work challenges and believe that collectively we are stronger when we support each other and figure things out together.
These gatherings are limited to 20 people, so please commit to staying for the duration of the session.

Afternoon Bliss Yoga Nidra
Join this class to completely relax and bliss out the mind and body.

As you relax in savasana, this ancient practice leads you through the five layers of self (pancha maya kosha), awakening your innate wisdom and inviting a profound sense of wholeness. By accessing delta brainwaves, the state responsible for deep healing and restoration, Yoga Nidra allows your mind and body to regenerate while awake, offering a powerful path to clarity, balance, and inner healing. Your Yoga Nidra practice will support you to feel well-rested even if you are not getting consistent or deep sleep. It will guide you into a deeply relaxed physical state while grounding you back into your body and may improve sleep by reducing stress and pain.
Gentle sounds of crystal bowls and chimes will accompany the journey, enhancing relaxation and deepening your connection within. Through breath, visualization, sound and effortless stillness, you’ll enter a space where healing and insight unfold naturally. Come ready to rest, restore, and reconnect with the essence of your being. This is a non-movement guided meditation class.

Inner Work Club: Meeting the Dragon Within (Working with Dragon Energy)
Inner Work Club: Working with Dragon Energy
A Shadow Work Workshop for the Wild, Wise, and Untamed Within
🗓 Wednesday, October 23 | 🕕 6:00–8:00 PM PT | 📍Lounge
Dragons appear in myths around the world—sometimes as fierce protectors of treasure, sometimes as chaotic destroyers, and often as ancient beings holding deep wisdom, power, and mystery.
In this experiential Inner Work Club workshop, we’ll explore the archetype of the dragon through the lens of shadow work, embodiment, and imagination.
Across cultures, dragons have symbolized different aspects of the psyche:
🐉 In Chinese mythology, dragons represent strength, prosperity, and cosmic balance.
🐉 In European legends, they are often seen as dangerous forces guarding hidden gold.
🐉 In many traditions, they are the threshold guardians between the conscious self and deeper inner power.
But what if the dragon is a part of you? A part you’ve learned to fear, suppress, or forget?
Through a mix of guided active imagination, somatic practice, thought-work, and shared reflection, we’ll begin to form a relationship with this inner force—whether it shows up as rage, power, passion, instinct, creativity, protection… or something else entirely.
This experience invites you to...
✨ Learn how the dragon archetype lives in myth and in the personal unconscious
✨ Embark on an inner journey to meet your own dragon / dragon energy
✨ Practice somatic tools for grounding and integrating strong internal experiences
✨ Share your process and insight in community as we witness each other with care
This circle is especially supportive for those who...
✨ Are curious about working with their Shadow in a mythic, imaginative way
✨ Feel disconnected from their inner fire, instinct, or personal power
✨ Are navigating transformation, upheaval, or personal thresholds
✨ Crave a space where they can safely explore bigness, rage, or desire
You don’t need to “believe” in dragons to meet one inside yourself.
Just bring a journal, something to write with, and your full, human self.

✨ Learn how the dragon archetype lives in myth and in the personal unconscious
✨ Embark on an inner journey to meet your own dragon / dragon energy
✨ Practice somatic tools for grounding and integrating strong internal experiences
✨ Share your process and insight in community as we witness each other with care
This circle is especially supportive for those who...
✨ Are curious about working with their Shadow in a mythic, imaginative way
✨ Feel disconnected from their inner fire, instinct, or personal power
✨ Are navigating transformation, upheaval, or personal thresholds
✨ Crave a space where they can safely explore bigness, rage, or desire
You don’t need to “believe” in dragons to meet one inside yourself.
Just bring a journal, something to write with, and your full, human self.

Interpersonal Club: Game Night!
This month Interpersonal Club will be hold a relaxed game night! We will explore our stash of relational games including: We’re Not Really Strangers and/or Where Should We Begin. Do you want to get deeper than the daily small talk with members but aren’t sure who’s game (heehee)? These games provide a container for deeply connecting in fun and new ways!
Interpersonal Club is a space for members to explore, inquire, practice and deepen in understanding around the many types of relationships and connections in our lives. Through the exploration of interpersonal neurobiology, communication skills, relational resonance and coherence, co-regulation, empathy, emotional attunement, attachment, collective consciousness and more, we will grow our connections in real time and deepen our capacities for authentic and embodied relationships with our friends, partners, families, children, collaborators, and communities.
*A note about our club structure: Rather than centering consumption of content or replication of hierarchical group power structures, we will tend to center group process in Interpersonal Club, meaning that we will stay with the trouble of working/playing/exploring through any sticky or murky places that may come up as we learn to be in deeper community together.
