Class descriptions
Internal Pelvic Attunement, Level I.
Attuning to the Inner Tide.
A purposeful, direct-contact balancing technique for the pelvic floor muscles, pelvic fascia, and energetic flow through the central channel.
This technique is an alchemy of systems including craniosacral, structural integration/Rolfing, myofascial release, and spiritual healing.
Treating in this way harmonizes the body and spirit, and is gentle, lasting, and effective.
Inner Tide level 1 is a four day gathering for practitioners to safely experience a deepening into themselves, an inner knowing of midline through the pelvis, and a sacral connection with the earth. This training is harmonious and experiential, providing a potent and safe container for nourishment and self healing. Exploring this work with other women is a big part of our own healing and being in the energy field together as we work is powerful, unique, and transformative. We move together in ceremony, starting with tea each day for opening and integration. If you wish to bring this work out to your community, that material is here as well. This training also includes assessment of pelvic floor function, internal pelvic floor balancing, grounding energy, opening and closing sessions with ease. You’ll feel supported in the work while you work. You'll learn how to help your clients open to what has been unavailable to them, safely, and the steps for how to work with it.
We will tune right into the essence of the material and work steadily. We'll spend some of our time together integrating, but plan to have at least one quiet day on the other side of the training to allow for this material to find it's way into your flow.
With all levels of training and coursework,
we honor structure as it relates to function,
form as it relates to energy,
matter as it relates to spirit.
Internal Pelvic Attunement Level II.

Honoring the Inner Tide.
Recognizing and working with common pelvic patterns (stuck grief, stuck rage, blocked receptivity) grounding energy as significant shifts occur, boundaries, refinement of listening, working with the heart-womb organ rhythms.
Prerequisites: Foundations class and approval via application process.

the whole and creative feminine with the whole and creative masculine
- within one body and within the all.
The medicine lives in the process of deep embodiment.

In my eighteen years of working with internal myofascial release in women, I have applied many styles of work, and it is with great joy that I share this system with you. This work is vital for women, creativity and sexual expression are renewed when full pelvic embodiment takes place, ancestral lines are honored, and the womb and heart are in resonance. I am honored to offer this training, to hold this container, and to share this flow with you for your own healing and for your clients' healing.
What this series is:
Common patterns that are supported by and benefit from this work:
Because of the nature of the sacred space we are working within, and the personal vulnerability, this class is limited to 10 students. We learn by working with each other.

I am honored to offer this training, to hold this container, and to share this flow with you for your own healing and for your clients' healing.
What this series is:
- A unique series of classes that are highly specialized, with highly attuned delivery, a safe container, centered in presence. This training, one class or the entire series, will offer you a deep connection with yourself that you can maintain and explore for your lifetime. A place to work from that is truly yours.
- Practicing various types of contact that will support pelvic floor balance, womb-heart balance, and deep embodiment. Discerning when to use different types of contact and in which timing.
- Assessing pelvic muscular and energetic balance, utilizing manual therapies and languaging to promote balance.
- Safety and boundaries, creating sacred space, honoring the power of this creative and receptive realm of the body.
- Cranialsacral holds and myofascial techniques that support the nervous system, the pelvic fascia, and the central channel.
- Material that is specific for the female body, the wombspace, and the energy field around you and your client and can be applied to all parts of the body and the intrinsic ways the body unfolds and heals.
- Material that is trauma informed and trauma healing.
- Recognizing and supporting the healing of lineage patterns, clearing energetic residues that impact creative and sexual flow (advanced classes).
- Teaching clients to maintain their sexual and creative space.
- Refining boundaries and creating new boundaries as you expand into this work.
Common patterns that are supported by and benefit from this work:
- Infertility and creative blocks
- Sense of being disconnected from the pelvis, from power, from inner authority
- Low libido
- Tailbone pain
- Hip pain
- Low back pain
- Pain with intercourse
- Pain with menses
- Pelvic trauma (including and not limited to sexual, gynecological, obstetric, and birth trauma).
- Urinary incontinence
Because of the nature of the sacred space we are working within, and the personal vulnerability, this class is limited to 10 students. We learn by working with each other.
This training is a good fit for you if you are:
- Deeply curious about connecting with your pelvis, wombspace, and your creative/sexual energy.
- Moving away from old patterns of imbalanced pelvic energy - which often shows up in work and energy flow, receiving/not able to receive, overpowering others/acting small. Ready to create space for the middle path, and do so with others exploring similar terrain.
- Currently working with clients, willing and able to communicate your boundaries, willing to explore this layered unfolding in yourself and with others in a safe setting.
This training is not a good fit for you if you are:
- Experiencing a reactivation of pelvic trauma, or have recently experienced an acute event which you are not receiving support for.
- If you are unsure of how this training will impact your professional life.
- If you are looking for an outside fix for a problem.

Drum making and initiation
This offering is for those who are called to make their medicine drum. We will be using deer hide and maple rounds, and weaving with an Apache weave. We slow down and listen to the heartbeat of the earth, we allow our hands to weave. Most drum weavers I work with are interested in working with their personal ancestral healing, and are, in some way, embracing the art and path of healing in their personal or community practice.
Friday evening we begin. We will meet at my home on the Willamette river, next to Elk Rock Island. This land is abundant and rich, it will hold us and carry us through this sweet gateway. The first evening we speak of our ancestors, we set intentions and create the circle. I hold space for everyone's hearts to be fully present and for each of you to fully sit with your intention, and to open to what else may be wanting to come through.
Saturday we meet in the morning hours for tea ceremony, create an offering for the land, let the maple rounds and the hides choose us, and we paint and prepare the rounds. This is a spacious day, where we soften in and embody spirit of deer medicine. We close the day by dipping the hides in the river so they are ready for weaving in the morning.
Sunday we weave. This is a fun process and takes time to finish as we wrap the handle many times in a pattern that is unique to each hide pattern and each weaver. I will be providing some simple and delicious food, and serving cacao during the weave. As the drums are all finished up, I will start a fire we'll head out to seal each drum with the fire's heat, to awaken each drum, and the best part...to witness each others' first drum sounds.
Next class dates are coming soon, you can be sure to be informed by subscribing to my newsletter - which is where classes and dates are announced.
Class size is limited to 10 participants and I offer this one-two times per year. I am tentatively planning another after the summer solstice 2022.
