Wild Woman Rising - Women’s Workshop
Part of the Forbidden Path – A Series of Women’s Workshops
18th - 20th September 2026
with Amiya & Fiona
Wild Woman Rising
Untamed – Sensual – Sacred
This is the Water Earth And Fire weekend — the domain of emotion, instinct, sensuality and the underworld feminine.
Here we meet Lilith, Kali, the sensual serpent woman, the ecstatic dancer, the one who has never apologised for her hunger or her freedom. Through dance, movement, naked or clay-covered body painting, deep emotional alchemy, grief & rage ritual, and sensual reclamation, we return to the raw feminine the world has tried to tame.
This workshop liberates shame, rage, repression, Catholic guilt, and the pleasure woman within. It is a breakthrough space where freedom, earthiness and instinct become sacred once more. We honour the woman who wants to fly and the woman who wants to root.

What this weekend awakens in you
This weekend is an invitation to return to the wisdom of your body, to the places where sensuality, pleasure, instinct and expression may have been hidden, shamed, silenced or forgotten.
Together, we will explore the element of Water as a gateway into emotion, guilt, shame, release and deep inner softening.
Through dance, ritual, naked/clay body painting, sound, breath, movement and circle work, you will be guided into a deeper relationship with your body’s truth.
We will meet the archetypal forces of Lilith and Kali, not as concepts, but as living energies of wildness, liberation, destruction, creation and sacred power.
You will be invited to explore what has been repressed, what longs to be expressed, and what is ready to break through.
This is a space to reawaken pleasure, reclaim sensual shadows, and remember the snake-wisdom of the body: instinctive, alive, untamed and deeply holy.
” If you want to share with sisters on your journey, to go deeper into your self knowledge & awakening, to expand your energy & to celebrate life from & with your heart, this retreat is for you!!”

Threshold – Earth – Rebirth
(Standalone – 2 nights · £330)Here the threshold is crossed. This weekend awakens Earth: grounding, boundaries, body truth, stability, and the first shedding of the old identity. Through ceremony, emotional release, ancestral clearing, shadow work and embodied boundaries, we enter the underworld of the Forbidden Path — the place where women remember who they are beneath conditioning.
We address shame, guilt, unprocessed rage, silence, and the inherited stories from mothers, grandmothers and patriarchal lineage. This is where you meet the woman you were before you were shaped: instinctive, earthy, honest, clear. You will be held through elemental ritual, body-based healing, earth grounding, and practices that prepare your system to hold more life force.
During this workshop we will…
Walk a full threshold ritual of release
Work with earthing practices for grounding & boundaries
Explore ancestral shame, guilt & suppression
Activate emotional expression & somatic truth

(Standalone – 2 nights · £330)
Authority – Fire – Truth
This is the Fire weekend — boundaries, clarity, leadership, voice, inner authority. After entering your wildness, we now refine it. Sovereign Woman stands tall in her truth, speaks clearly, and reclaims the power she once handed over to others. Here we work with unprocessed rage, control, empowerment, embodied boundaries, communication and leadership.
This is leadership not as performance, but as presence. You will learn to stand on your own feet, reclaim your ability to take space, and speak with precision and integrity. Through fire ritual, voice work, power reclamation, and tree-rooted embodiment, we awaken the inner queen and leader.
During this workshop we will…
Practice embodied boundaries & clear communication
Reclaim unprocessed rage in healthy expression
Work with Fire: desire, leadership & sovereignty
Strengthen self-regulation without external reliance
Explore voice, visibility & the sacred “no”
Unwind patterns of shrinking or over-boundarying
Reclaim inner leadership & embodied authority
Use nature (trees, earth) as allies for empowerment

Stillness – Insight – Discernment
(Standalone – 2 nights · £330)
This is the Air & Ether weekend — intuition, clarity, ancestral listening, and deep stillness. After the emotional, sensual and fiery territories, we now enter the quiet that reveals everything. This workshop includes silence, meditation, council work , breath, intuition activation, shadow integration, night-time nature rituals, blindfolded visioning, earth-burial practices, and listening to the land.
This is where the feminine elder comes online — the woman who sees truth without fear, speaks only what is essential, and trusts her inner knowing completely. Here we integrate the journey so far and begin to sense what our medicine might be.
During this workshop we will…
Drop into deep stillness and intuitive states
Engage in blindfolded vision quests and listening rituals
Work with night nature practices & sweat lodge (if permitted)
Explore Air: voice, discernment, creativity
Integrate shadow and wisdom with care
Receive ancestral insight & heal conditioning
Recalibrate the nervous system toward spaciousness
Sit in stillness circles & elder council

Radiance – Offering – Purity
(2 nights · £330 EB)The final workshop completes the Forbidden Path — the return to Eden as a woman who now chooses the apple consciously. Gifted Woman is where your medicine becomes visible. This is the weekend of radiance, purity, elegance, sensual innocence, and sacred offering. Through creativity, ritual, expression, ancestral honouring, nature listening, and visibility practices, you will discover the gifts you’ve hidden — and the courage to share them.
We explore pleasure as purity, visibility without shame, embodied offering, and the subtle feminine power that blesses by simply being. This is not about becoming a healer — but about recognising how you naturally heal, inspire, and uplift when you stop hiding.
During this workshop we will…
Discover your unique medicine & feminine gifts
Explore visibility, expression & embodied radiance
Engage in pleasure, purity & sensual innocence rituals
Work with creativity, voice & movement
Listen to nature for guidance on your offering
Reclaim gifts hidden by shame or conditioning
Participate in a completion ceremony
Return to the Garden as the woman you’ve become
