Raices Y Brazos began as a vision, seeded by observation and intention. When the founder, Peter Domecq, moved to the Baja area he began to connect with the creative community, the artists, the healers, the performers, those seeking to expand, educate, and explore. It was acknowledged that a beautiful and powerful community existed yet there was no central venue for these people to converge, to share ideas, to explore realities, and to inspire each other.
The venues were mostly hotels, resorts, spas and bars. It was also observed that much of the valuable knowledge, insight and experience these beings had to share was not accessible to most of the local people. These realizations combined with the inspiration to build bridges within the local community; across gender, ethnicity, tribes, generations and socioeconomic stratifications, and between this local community and the global community.
To facilitate a meeting place where the local community can cross pollinate with the global community. Where individuals can explore their roots, their connection to the earth, and also extend their branches and reach for the heavens. Where individuals and groups can take an active role in the evolution of consciousness and the consciousness of evolution. This is envisioned to be a co creative process, and thus was the vision received, with the intention to manifest a space and invite the community to then transform that space into a place, into a dynamic, living, evolving, positive, intentional organism called Raices Y Brazos, Roots and Branches.
