Red Moon Circle School
Starting Winter ’24
In Vamos, Crete & Online
Welcome to the Red Moon Circle School! ⭕🔻🧘🏽♀️🌹
Join us online as well as in person on Crete to learn to create your own circles, to infuse your current offerings with circle magic, to deepen your personal practice.
We will gather for 6 circle workshops (6hrs each), immersing ourselves in the Foundation Level curriculum that provides the core wisdom to hold circle space for women, including topics such as cyclical living, beauty medicine and trauma awareness.
The course is held in my home studio at Vamos in Apokoronas, Crete. It is also possible to join the online group which will start in spring.
This experiential training is for you when:
You feel a longing in your heart to start holding space for women
You have started holding circle space but haven’t been trained
You are trained in circle work and want to enhance your skills
You have similar skills and want to add circle space holding
You would like to develop and deepen your own feminine practice
Training Programme
In this foundation level training, we’ll cover 6 themes in 6 training days spread out over 2 months.
Please note that the dates are tentative and can change depending on the availability of the group coming together. Do get in touch if you want to join and cannot make some of the dates.
For the online cohort, the 6 training days will be scheduled to take place from spring 2024 onward, depending on the availability of the group coming together.
🌹Day 1: Foundations: Living cyclically
🌹Day 2: Safe space: Trauma-conscious space holding
🌹Day 3: Beauty medicine: Healing the nervous system
🌹Day 4: Sacred activism: Transitioning out of patriarchy
🌹Day 5: Invoking the Goddess: Sensing the subtle
🌹Day 6: Celebrations: Heart-opening rituals
Each training day I’ll offer a circle about the theme of the day, including a mini-lecture. After the break, we’ll put your learnings into practice so that they become an embodied, lived experience.
In late Spring ’24, there is the option of continuing with the Red Moon Circle School Certification Level which supports each woman to find her own unique way of hosting circles.

My Experience
My teachings are informed by over 10 years experience of holding space in 1:1 sessions, workshops, circles, trainings and retreats.
I’m certified as a Madretierra Menstrual Therapist (2018), a Awakening Women’s Temple Facilitator (2018), Unesco Movement Therapist (2016) and Co-active Coach (2013).
After leaving a strategy consulting career in London to study yoga in India, I lived and worked in Auroville, an intentional community in South India, for 6 years.
The Red Moon Circle School emerged out of my longing and vision for every woman to have access to a sacred space and to re-experience empowered femininity in a safe space, held by women trained in the art of circling.
I feel that this is the biggest contribution I can make to support our transition out of patriarchy, and to a cyclical and regenerative relationship with the Earth.
