Our People


Who we are

We are a collective of experienced facilitators and practitioners who cherish life in all its forms and long for it to thrive. We are called to respond to our collective sense of what we feel that this time needs, deep below the surface of the noise.

We are passionate about all of us coming to life so that we can be response-able to the times we’re in. Drawing on our diverse range of backgrounds and skillsets, we offer transformative experiences and help build bridges between where we are and where we imagine we can be in very tangible ways. 

We use both ancient and contemporary practices to elucidate, sense and strengthen the weave between ourselves and the rest of life. From here, our capacity to support life grows.
