Ancestral Rays 🌞 Fire Woman: Fire Making & Tending Intuition

Saturday, October 24, 2026 (10:00 AM - 4:00 PM) (PDT)

Description


Learn ancestral ways of making fire through embodiment and hands-on practice in this one-day workshop for women.

Together, we’ll learn to make and tend fire, while being in relationship with all who surround us: land, women, and our own body wisdom. We’ll tend to the beauty of being in a circle with women, tending both our inner and outer fire. We’ll also tend to our ancestral wisdom through intuition and by slowing down to be present with one another.

Coyote teaching has shaped how Claudelle instructs and mentors, so some of your questions may not be answered directly, for you to find the answers within yourself.

Fire can be a lifelong journey; there's always more to learn and deepen, so come alongside us with curiosity, humility, an open heart and mind and reverence for life. 

What to expect:

+ Your own bow-drill kit to take home

+ Exercises that reconnect you to your senses and intuition

+ Practice with ancestral fire-by-friction methods

+ Circling around the fire

+ Solo time in nature for reflection and integration

+ Connection with one another

+ Songs and storytelling

+ Knife safety and axe handling skills

+ Games and play


Limited to 12 participants.

Join us after for a community fire and potluck (4:30-5:45pm) and consider signing up for Harmony Songbirds Singing Workshop from 6-8pm.
