Song Carriers Immersive School
Santa Fe, New Mexico

The SONG CARRIERS Immersive School is a profound journey designed for women drawn to the devotion of tending and sharing earth songs while honoring cyclical feminine wisdom. Set amidst the clear wilds of a mountain valley, within the nurturing container of sisterhood, participants will vision into the unique character and purposes of their voice in service to all life, echoing the ancient understanding of vocal expression as nourishment for the earth.

This transformative experience is led by acclaimed singer and mentor Madi Sato, co-founder of the Praising Earth Center for Arts & Nature, and expertly co-facilitated by Amanda Ma. Together, we invite you to reconnect with this sacred wisdom and awaken your healing voice, in a program deeply rooted in nature and designed to foster profound connection.

Medicine Doll Workshop
Tucson, Arizona

A two-day workshop for women and femme-identifying folks to enter into sacred relationship with the art of doll-making as ritual. Participants are guided through the intuitive, hands-on process of crafting Medicine Dolls with wool, cloth, and natural materials, infused with intention, story, and ancestral connection.


Together, we gather in a ceremonial container of song, reflection, and creative expression to make visible what lives within us. This is a space of reclamation, tenderness, and deep presence. No prior experience needed—only a willingness to meet your own medicine with reverence.

I’m honored to be a recipient of the 2025 StART Grant from the Arts Foundation of Southern Arizona. I am grateful to offer this workshop at a reduced rate—50% off the regular price—thanks to the support of this grant.

Art of the Womb Retreat
Aravaipa Canyon, Arizona

This five-day Sonoran desert winter retreat is nestled within the red canyon walls and wild waters of the Aravaipa Wilderness. This is an immersion in ritual, remembrance, and creative embodiment, designed to stoke the inner fire of creativity, vitality, and deep wisdom.

The Art of the Womb honors the sacred womb space as both origin and oracle: a source of creativity, intuition, and deep knowing.

Open to women and femme-identifying individuals, this gathering welcomes up to 25 participants into a ceremonial container of deep listening, creation, and community.

Through sacred crafting, dreamwork, song, elemental connection, and guided ceremony, we weave personal ritual with collective healing.

Together, we will tend to the sacred cycles of intuition, creativity, and inner knowing through a rich tapestry of experiences, including a thoughtfully curated array of offerings designed to guide your journey:

  • Together we’ll build a living altar of offerings—natural elements, ancestral symbols, and personal tokens—to root our retreat in beauty, reverence, and shared intention.

  • Each day begins with a somatic experience of gentle empowerment. Venus leads a fusion of fluid movement, intuitive dance, and embodied awareness practices—awakening presence, soft strength, and shared connection. Sessions culminate in a light collaborative choreography that honors self and sisterhood.

  • Reclaim and amplify your voice in a devotional soundscape of shared song, ancestral chants, and vocal expression. Let your voice rise as a sacred instrument of truth and connection.

  • Work with natural clay to shape sacred figure vessels that embody your creative essence and inner waters. This tactile ritual offers a way to honor the body’s wisdom and its inherent creative power. We will pit fire our creations.

  • A meditative handcrafting session using wool and intention to shape symbolic womb totems. A journey into softness, creation, and embodied storytelling.

  • We’ll craft botanical-infused oils with intention—blending dried herbs, flowers, and sacred carrier oils. Then, in a tender scent-filled ritual, you’ll learn to anoint the body and connect to your womb space through self-touch, breath, and a sound healing.

  • Create devotional adornments and womb wraps using natural fibers, charms, hand-stitching, embroidery, and intuitive design. A ritual of beauty and care, inviting you to clothe your body in symbolic meaning and sacred expression.

  • Release what no longer serves and lift your deepest desires into the flames. Be witnessed in a potent ritual of transformation and aliveness, culminating in a powerful fire dance performance by Venus DelMar.

  • A guided experience of being seen in your essence. Sacred styling, soft direction, and soulful portraiture that reflects your inner wild, your softness, your strength. Photographed by Vanessa Wingerath of Wild Rose Project.

  • A celebratory evening of music, story, laughter, and sweet delights. Be held in the warmth of community as we gather for an intimate concert, followed by an open invitation for creative sharing.

  • Craft herbal dream bundles, sip soothing tea, and enter the dreamtime through gentle sound healing from Venus DelMar. We’ll weave our prayers and intentions into fragrant pouches to accompany you through the night.

  • We’ll honor the threads we've woven together. Gather in gratitude to reflect, anchor insights, and weave the retreat threads into your heart. Leave with a final blessing, a small ritual gift, and the remembrance that you are never alone on this path.
