Luminous Offerings Testimonials…
“A beautiful women’s circle and creative dance practice, carefully held with attention to detail. Safe, supportive, and deeply nourishing. The experience allowed me to connect with myself and others in a meaningful way, and I felt both free and grounded throughout. It was a gift to be part of such a well-facilitated space where each moment was crafted with care.”
…. It was such a sacred feminine exploration, I felt very held by the other women… we held each other and were given permission to be free… it was very freeing… yet safe. Afterwards I felt that I had reconnected with my heart, my creativity and the joy of child-me.
My lunar connection has already deepened and I had a felt-sense experience of how the feminine aspect of me is connected to this heavenly body during the workshop. Hard to put into words….and more than just the cyclical nature of the Feminine….I’m feeling so grateful to Elle and the Women.
“I recently participated in WildHoney’s New Moon Dance Workshop: Creative Exploration for Women, and it was a wonderful experience. The flowing movement, space for focusing on intentions, planting, softness, and dance connected us deeply to the earth, moon, and variations of feminine energy. I found it playful, surprising, and filled with joy. The workshop space was beautifully curated, creating an inviting and sacred atmosphere. Elle and Amanda held the space with such grace, making everyone feel welcome and connected. I left feeling rejuvenated, quietly proud of the surprising part of me I hadn’t expressed in a long time, and peaceful. I can truly recommend this workshop to anyone seeking a space to explore movement, connection, and the beauty of feminine energy”.
