“We are not meant to do this on our own. We used to sit around the fire and share our wisdom.
When we come into circle, magic happens.”
Tami Lynn Kent
These circles are based on the three elements of feminine embodiment: breath, movement, and touch. Allowing us to move beyond an intellectual understanding into the wisdom of our bodies and a deeper connection to ourselves and others.
Some of these circles are women’s circles, specially designed for those who identify as a woman. Others are open to all genders.
No experience is required, practices are simple and playful, yet potent.
The Feminine Within series
Learning ways to connect and clear the energy in our pelvic bowl
Letting go limiting beliefs we may hold around womanhood and femininity
Leaning into the magic and support of being in circle
Welcoming clarity, joy, ease back into our daily lives
Intellectually we know, it’s not only the destination, how we get there is equally important. However, on those days that our to-do-lists seem to be closing down on us often we fall back into our masculine energy to push through and get things done quickly.
This is when softening into our feminine energy serves us most: stepping back, taking a deep breath, keep holding things lightly and allowing life to flow through us. The good news is, the feminine within is right there, waiting for you to reconnect. She’s whole, resourceful and fully alive. Nothing needs fixing. It’s just a matter of finding your way back there. With gentle practices you will deepen your connection and ability to live from this abundant reservoir of creative life energy.
This series is intentionally designed for those who identify as women and will focus particularly on the energy of the pelvic bowl, supporting you in tapping into its vast potential.

Remember & Celebrate circles
Tapping into the wisdom of our bodies
Remembering the magic of our connection
Celebrating the beauty and power of the divine feminine
Connecting to the elements of nature and the cyclic nature of our lives
Something deep is restored when women gather, especially when we carve out a bit more time and allow a bigger group to form.
These circles are a co-creation with Wendy van Leusen. Together we will welcome a wider circle of women 4 times a year, honoring the seasons, and the corresponding elements of nature: earth, air, fire, and water. Reminding us that life is cyclic and allowing us to be more in flow with of each phase of these cycles.
Through visualizations, ritual, and dance we move beyond our intellectual understanding into a deeper connection with ourselves, each other, and the pure, intuitive, and subtle feminine energy. No experience is needed, the practices we use are simple yet potent and everyone who identifies as a woman is welcome.

Ritual circles
Honoring and ritualizing important life events
Celebrating the connection with those you love
Giving meaning to life transitions
Many important events and transitions in life are worth honouring and celebrating in circle: birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, friendships, becoming a parent, new beginnings and endings.
We will co-create a circle especially for you and those you’d like to invite. Or maybe you want to surprise a dear friend with an extraordinary gift. We will include the music, practices and rituals that make it special and meaningful. Either online or in person.
Connect with me and we’ll make magic together.

Stepping into the call of leading circles
Being the teacher and the student
Learning the do’s and don’ts for creating safety and depth in sharing
Working with the 3 elements of feminine embodiment
Leaning into a network of magical women cheering each other on!
This series is designed for those work who with people. Coaches, therapists, facilitators, yoga or meditation teachers and also for those who have been in circle with me and want to start their own circles.
You will deepen your ability to hold a safe space and enhance your current offerings with simple, yet potent embodiment practices.
You will be exploring the paradoxes of being a student while teaching. Being certain, while not knowing. Holding things lightly while diving in deep. And the creative power of not doing.
On the pracitcal side, you will receive a faclitator’s manual, plenty playlists, gorgeous vizualisations and practices. But ulitmately you will be encouraged to find your own unique form to offer those who choose to be in circle with you.
Let me know if you are keen to join this series.
YES, I FEEL THE CALL!

Manon’s full moon circle is a delight.
Connecting with myself and others, experiencing freedom within, being outside, barefoot, under the stars and the moon, lifting myself up.

I landed in women circles by change and have been in them for more than a year now. Circles are a sacred space where women open in safety, grow, have fun and weave golden threads of love. These circles have become an essential part of my well being.
Manon is the ideal sister: candid, generous and loving!

I had no idea what to expect when I first came to the circles. all I can say is I left elated and grounded at the same time and that lasted for days. It was a beautiful experience of movement (to some very funky tunes), a deep reflection into the feminine and a great sense of connection.
Manon has a perfect balance of confidence yet softness in her voice and manner and the way she leads her circles is contagious!
