This year the IFVP conference was held in beautiful Montreal, Quebec, Canada at the Hilton Bonaventure during a fantastically powerful full moon. The energy in the city and in the conference was electric! This was my first year at the conference, but I hardly felt like an outsider! Everyone was so warm, welcoming and receptive. Throughout the conference there were themes of community and support. Everyone was encouraged to participate especially the 'newbie's (members who had never done a live recording). It was a comfortable environment where we could all practice and experiment without pressure. The plethora of experience in the room was outstanding and the wealth of knowledge and iconography was very inspiring! There was time to talk about business, marketing strategies and client relations, there was time for talking about our own health and stamina, there was advice on layout, technique and design, there was a number of fascinating presentations from a wide variety of experts...the list goes on and on! I feel full of vitality, motivation and confidence after my experience in Montreal and I owe a huge thanks to all of the other participants and the organizers of the conference, especially Jan, Becky and Launa! It is really nice to know and feel that you are not alone in this field and that there is a wonderful network of people there to support you in your endeavours; people who genuinely care about you and want to see you succeed. Thanks IFVP, I'm looking forward to next year! Melanie Benn- Toronto, Ontario
