2024 OFFERINGS
TRAININGS, IMMERSIONS & RETREATS
2024 is spilling over with rich offerings, opportunities to travel and invitations to sit in a community of real depth and heart. We will be co-creating two retreats, in Ireland for Imbolc and in Colombia with our dear friend, graduate and Colombian Priestess, Juliana. Besides our signature 6 month immersion and 13 month 250hr Embodied Yoga Facilitator training, we will also offer a 300hr Advanced Training, with some modules in Granada, Spain. The Remembership runs year round and next year will also see our first Group Coaching program to help teachers, healers, coaches and facilitators grow their online businesses.
We hope to welcome you soon.

Sundays 6.00-8.30 PM GMT
This four week prayer will establish a supportive container of daily meditation, mantra and pranayama, as you explore the revelatory and life affirming technologies of radical non-dual Tantra. This is a response to a call that has been whispering to you your whole life. The persistent longing to become intimate with the inconceivable mystery of your own being.
Each session will open with a kirtan and sadhana of mantra, meditation, pranayama, deity yoga and transmission led by Leela Dasi. After a generous break, we will sink into an inspiring lecture on the core teachings of the Tradition, including the 5 Acts, the 5 Powers, the 4 Levels, and the 3 Impurities. Together we will study the tantras and sutras, connect as a community, guide each other into practice and steep ourselves inside the philosophy.

DECEMBER 1-22 | 2024

Collette will guide you into a deeper understanding of Tantric Psychology and how to release Samskaras through the skilful means of the Upayas. We will look at the mystical, the imaginal and the dreamworld as realms of Soul and we make contact with the underworld of the unconscious to touch into our totality and wholeness.
An astrologer and psychotherapist, Chris will introduce us to psyche through the doorway of soul, exploring Archetypes, the Collective Unconscious and how we can meet the parts of ourselves from an astrological perspective. We will also explore the Jungian technique of Active Imagination and how this weaves into yogic philosophy, embodiment and practice. -

The session will open with an hour long lecture on Vak (mystic linguistics), from Leela Dasi, followed by a generous break and a 90 minute movement practice. There will be time to share our embodied research, to journal, process and integrate our learning. -
MARCH 2-23 | 2025
Sundays 6.00-8.30pm GMT
The liminal space pulses at the heart of the Samāveśa process and we are finding portals to abide in the place where everything waits. The home of potentiality and deepest knowing. This module opens the door to profound practices of creative flow that show us how to live in alignment and rhythm with life.
You will turn rest into ritual, attune to your own poetic heart, know your yes and your no and understand your boundaries. This module is a sweet holding and refuge where we view awakening from the perspective of wholeness. Where honoring your bodymind is honoring the organism of the whole. And where tending to your own needs will allow you to build your resilience and increase your capacity to hold stronger, safer and clearer space. At work, at home and in your community. For the benefit of all beings.
*10am-12pm BST on the first two weeks because Gwendolyn is based in the US. The calls will be Rest as Ritual and Poetry as Meditation. You are welcome to watch the recordings if it’s a little late for you in Aus. It will be your 8-10pm.

APRIL 6-27 | 2025
Sundays 6.00-8.30pm GMT
Embodiment is a homecoming into the natural, indigenous terrain and topography of who we really are. It is an ineffable language, one that allows us to uncover, unbridle and undomesticate the bodymind. One that allows us to remember, reinvigorate and re-articulate ourselves in an ever-renewing and ever-unfolding process of discovery, recognition and re-attunement.
Alexandra will guide us through poetic landscapes and movement explorations, through different gateways and systems of our intelligent body-mind. Inspired by her life’s work as a dancer, somatic facilitator, BMC™ and Embodied Flow™ practitioner, researcher and explorer. Alexandra is a poet and exquisite steward of the thresholds. -

Join this 4 week experiential programme that artfully blends weekly self-paced recorded content with live community circles. Explore anatomy from an embodied perspective, through the lens of movement-based methodology, including Body-Mind Centering, Bartenieff Fundamentals and Laban Movement Analysis.
We will go into the musculoskeletal system, including the role of bones, joints, muscles and connective tissue, the tensegrity and role of fascia as a web of support and our intuitive sixth sense. As well as the anatomy of breath and core with key considerations for pre and post natal. Learn about the importance of somatic movement education, what it means to be a healthy mover and discover a new paradigm for ‘flexibility’.

JULY 6 - 27 | 2025
Sundays 6.00-8.30pm GMT
The term ‘shadow’ comes from the inspired teachings of Carl Jung and to honour the dark is a deeply Tantric view. In order to melt away our conditioning and become truly whole, we must welcome all the parts of ourselves and this is a crucial step on the spiritual path, and essential if we are to hold space for others.
We will study shadow and myth through the lens of Jung and astrology with Chris while Leela will take us into the powerful Tibetan practice of feeding your demons. By turning towards our dark and illuminating what remains unconscious we can release stuckness, liberate that energy and become more alive, more whole, more authentic.
IMBOLC RETREAT IN WEST IRELAND
FEBRUARY 1-5 2024

Get your work out there and get paid for it. For healers, carers, teachers, educators, facilitators and anyone who is in service and undervalued. This 10 week coaching programme helps you dissolve self-images that limit your potential, giving you the tools and know-how to build a brand, nurture community and create online courses for more abundance and collective freedom.
HOW NOT TO BE A HUMBLE HOLISTIC HEALER
MARCH 2024 | 10 WEEK GROUP COACHING
£1000
-
The image of a yoga teacher, healer, yogi or otherwise is just that. An image. And as with all identities, it can be limiting. We begin by looking at where our stories are limiting our potential and unwinding narratives about money and worth.
-
Half the battle is allowing yourself to get big and be seen. If you are going to share these teachings and step into your dharma, you need to get out of the way and let yourself be seen. This is all about establishing your brand and defining your ideal client.
-
The best way to meet your clients needs is to ask them. What is the problem you are helping them to solve? What are they struggling with in their life? How does your work sustain and support them?
-
Online courses, trainings, memberships, masterclasses, containers. Now you know who you are serving, decide what you want to create to meet their needs.
-
Get clear on visual and verbal brand identity, messaging, tone of voice and copywriting. So you know what to say and how to say it.
-
Learn how to use Thinkific and how easy it is to set up your first course. We’ll look at course creation, sales pages and payment links.
-
Demystifying Sales Pages, Opt-ins and funnels so they make sense and feel aligned.
-
Fall in love with writing weekly love letters, give everything away and share your offerings to create true value. Learn about memberships, online community forums and Facebook groups.
-
Content is a misleading word. Musing, filming, editing, researching, curating are all aspects of creating art. Get excited about ‘content’ and get clear on how to use Instagram in smart and healthy ways.
-
You’ve got your idea, you’ve grown your audience, you’ve fallen in love with being an artist and an entrepreneur. Now you’re ready to get your idea out there. We’ll learn about prep, beta launches and being seen.
