Death and Grief Guide. Full spectrum doula. Director of Yoga Teacher Trainings & Retreats
Womb Healing. Queer, trans, GNC and non binary affirming in everything I offer. LA LUPA VIA translates in an italian-Latin translation as, 'The Wolf Way". I am of Italian-European heritage and grew up with a potent and mystical affinity to both the Italian Wolf Goddess, Feronia-queen of the wilderness, wild

life, untamed nature who is known for her liberating nature, fertility, a protector of wolves and Lucina-goddess of wild things, protector of childbirth and of all vulnerable beings(animal or human), a guide though life's transitions. In addition to Feronia and Lucina, I have an ancient soul connection to La Loba. This story told by Clarissa Pinkola Este, originates from the deserts and mountains of Northern Mexico, about a wolf-woman-bone collector, who resurrects the wild spirit of life from the depths of the underworld. At the heart and soul of my offerings is the spirit of wolves and these Goddesses: the energy of midwifing spaces of rebirth, soul reclamation, soul restoration and life liberation. I midwife/doula sacred and inclusive spaces for returning to our wild instincts,reverencing our dark and light as whole, restoring and resacrailzing our lives and energy.

SOLACE SUMMER SOLSTICE RETREAT JUNE 19-21st 2026
is space to step out of the pace of your life and into a pulse that is actually yours. To anchor into nature’s way, your creative potential, and your body’s knowing — in a supportive, gentle, nourishing, and connective environment.

In the safety of the feminine, we can honour our cycles of creation and destruction — wherever you are in yours is welcome here.

This is a balanced offering — Emergent kundalini yogic practice woven with generous periods of rest and receptivity. The rhythm of the weekend mirrors the rhythm the body already knows: expand, receive, integrate.

Held on the land at Xenia at Nex̱wlélex̱wm — nourishing food, sweet animals, and the quiet company of the natural world. An opportunity for quietude and reflection presents itself to those who are there to listen.

Insights into the FERAL FEMININE RISING one day retreat tomorrow April 24th
Registration is still open!!

Feral Feminine Rising is a one-day immersive ritual retreat and dance temple devoted to awakening the wild, ancient, and instinctual wisdom within our bodies, hearts and souls. This gathering is a sacred invitation for women to step out of the containment of the matrix and into a vibrant, mystical space of movement, ritual, sacred sound, and supportive community.

Together we will enter a living temple of feral feminine expression ~ where the body leads, the voice opens, and the spirit remembers.

Throughout the day we will journey through a tapestry of somatic embodiment and ancestral activation practices designed to reconnect you with your intuitive, sensual, and creative power. We will play, rest, repeat!

Mexican-raised and now based in Vancouver, DJ Pélvica delivers feral, high-energy sets rooted in reggaeton, cumbia, house, and tribal guarachero. Her sound is unapologetically pelvis driven, because movement is ancestral, and dancing is a form of resistance. Every set is an invitation to reconnect with your body, your power, and your rhythm. She will be blessing us with her spicy set at the FERAL FEMININE RISING ONE DAY RETREAT April 24th

Liz Gleadle will lead a Feral Freedom class during the FERAL FEMININE RISING day retreat April 24th
as we strip away the performance of dance to reclaim the ancient, cyclical wisdom held within our hips and spines. Drawing from her journey as a world-class athlete who had to re-learn how to move from the soul, Liz guides you through repetitive, rhythmic patterns designed to metabolize stored emotion and move energy fluidly through the body. This is not about learning choreography; it is a somatic activation of your unique sensual signature and feral self

5 spots remain for our Tending Grief Together Retreat

“We are designed to receive touch, to hear sounds and words entering our ears that soothe and comfort. We are shaped for closeness and for intimacy with our surroundings. Our profound feelings of lacking something are not reflection of personal failure, but the reflection of a society that has failed to offer us what we were designed to expect.”-Francis Weller

Through sauna and cold ocean immersion, we soften and strengthen the nervous system, meeting discomfort as devotion and resilience as ritual.

Guided rainforest walks and meditations invite you to listen — not with the mind, but with the body — to the ancient intelligence of moss, wind, and root.

Surfing, dance, and embodied movement awaken feral joy, presence, and play, reconnecting you to the wild pulse that lives beneath conditioning.

As night falls, we gather in temple song, drum circle, and fire ceremony, letting voice, rhythm, and flame carry prayers into the dark. is for those hungry to:

METABOLIZING GRIEF

Tending grief is an act of love that warms our hearts. As we learn to metabolize grief, we mobilize what has been bound in body and mind, freeing ourselves to be more fully alive.
Join us for an afternoon of connection and transformation. Open to new possibilities through movement, conscious breath, experiential processes, writing and ritual. Trusting your own journey empowers you; Allowing emotion to flow freely brings a sense of relief and liberation.
We were never meant to tend our grief alone. Although universal, we each experience grief uniquely. When grief comes, and cracks us open, our task may be to accept that part of us will dwell in the Underworld, at least part-time, and to fill this place with as much love and compassion as possible.
This supportive guided experience meets you where you are. Be fortified in community and tap into your courage to feel and breathe and allow grief to move. At this workshop you will find your rhythm, and tend in your way, to clarify the past and deepen into presence.
“If grief can be a doorway to love, then let us all weep for the world we are breaking apart so we can love it back to wholeness again.”
Robin Wall Kimmerer
