Program Details
Do you long to reconnect with your wild soul? Are you in transition and asking, “What is uniquely mine to do?” Would you like to learn to cultivate an allegiance to self and be 100% you in all situations?

Speak your truth and awaken your essence through dancing, community, singing and ritual.
Unleash your creativity and learn about the alchemy and power of regenerative rest.
Anchor in the art/science of self-care: learn how to cultivate your desired state of being.
