Hayoka Yoga with Amy Kokoszka

02/01/2026

I had to commit. I still do.
To steadiness. To self honesty. To staying with what is real.

Resurrection, for me, is not belief.
It is a slow rebuilding through discipline and repetition.

Women Who Run With the Wolves is complex.
This is an active study and a somatic practice.
We work with the material through the body, not just the mind.

I am doing this work myself.

Begins January 26th. Sundays 7 to 9 PM GMT.
Message me Ready.

Christmas often amplifies what we can no longer carry.
Roles. Languages. Expectations. Even spiritual ones.

This isn’t an invitation to change anything.
It’s an invitation to listen.

With love,
Amy

It’s taken me a while to truly express how I see Women & Wolves but a certainty came over me and these slides are the expression of my meaning.

With love,

Dec 29 7 to 9 pm join the first FREE workshop in a series of workshops called Women & Wolves. With the incredible support of and her brilliant research mind, (one of her many talents) we journey into the world of the Wild Woman Archetype. Think of the wild as an innate expression of the soul, its natural path, meaning you were born with this! Think of a woman, you perhaps, walking barefoot on a beach, clear headed and alert. Think of the caterpillar naturally, but not without difficulty emerging from the web. Think of the wolf in the desert in the forests in the deep woods, hunting, cuddling, directing and lovingly moving about her life.

When Clarrisa Pinkola Estes said in the first line of her book, ‘wild life like the wild woman are endangered species’, this should have perked up your ears. This should be the sentence of all sentences, the one that makes you worry, and remember! For it is your sovereignty you and it is also your choice, for freedom does not come without work, and then a continuous maintenance of this work, an including and subtracting.

There are many powerful, influential woman who have gifted us teachings, not just Woman who run with the Wolves, there are many, and so we will explore them durning these workshops. Amy will weave the teachings of other great female leaders, including her own insights and practices. We together will remember the old stories, which sound the same but in a different outfit, these old wise teachings are embedded n our bones.

Dates of the 18 workshops Dan be found on hayokayoga.org details

If you want to join the free session you must send your email in a private message.

So much love Amy

“Wildlife and wild women are both endangered species.”
Why is that?

Why are women becoming an endangered species? Do you see this happening in modern times? When I say this, I mean: do you see a kind of diminishing, a weakening, a regressing in certain aspects of a woman’s ability to hone in on what is important in her life, in her handmade life?

In this six month study program, we explore the book Women Who Run With the Wolves, but not exclusively. We are going to look at other important female authors and their contributions to teaching us. But the real question is: are we willing to listen?

Would taking this book apart, chapter by chapter, in a guided format help you gain the information needed to apply this very particular Wild Woman archetype medicine to your life?

Wild is often misrepresented.
We do not mean wild as in stupid, crazy, doing silly or unintelligent things. We mean wild as in wildly intuitive, wildly sensing, wildly loving, unafraid of being messy or earthy, unafraid of the natural cycles, the ebb and flow, unafraid of walking the earth in integrity. That is the wildness this six month program is about.

Within each two hour session, we will review important pieces from the book. We will apply specific somatic and embodied work to help move the body, to release, to shake, and to help transform th information we are getting. We will have open and thoughtful discussions about applying and unlearning, and then relearning, the real moral code and lessons that Clarissa has been attempting to gift us in this beautiful book.

This book has inspireded this course. I have been a yoga practitioner for over 25 years and have taken women on retreats for the last 10 years. This has been some of the most powerful shift work I have seen women experience by using the tools and lessons she points out.

I invite you to join us and learn these lessons as well.
Details are in the bio on my website.

Religion and Faith

A Needed Distinction
Religion is a system. It is a collection of doctrines, stories, rituals, and social rules that grew over centuries. It can offer community, meaning, and structure, but it can also reinforce hierarchy, dogma, and gendered power.

Faith is an inner orientation.
It is a way of surrendering, listening, trusting, and being in relationship with what we call Spirit, God, the Divine, or universal truth.
Faith does not require an institution. It does not belong to one time, one culture, or one scripture.

Throughout history, people have always moved in and out of religious traditions during times of social uncertainty. This is a well documented pattern in sociology.

In Women & Wolves one of the teachings we explore is that of a “handmade life’. What is a handmade life, how do we know what one feels like, what it looks like? What are the somatic practices I can utilise to feel fully content in my body, and in my heart, or how do I return contentment to my life? Not striving but present and patient. MOST Importantly what may have distracted me from this handmade life?

For those that asked about the hundreds of seashells I picked the other day. They became a small, still unfinished mosaic in the entrance in my cozy little cottage I live in, preached on a hill, next to the ocean. This tiny home has been a long awaited oasis for me. A grounding space to create. And slowly it is being renovated and loved. Each section a private expression of my creative mind.

If it’s baking a pie, running that long run, being present with a creative thought and then taking small action on it, this is a handmade life. When it’s not a ,have to, so much as a “I must”then you know you are on the right track.

But what happens when you no longer feel that, when nothing springs up, no creative thought therefore no action?…. Or a numbness, a bitterness, a jealousy or a longing unfilled? First, get curious, then quiet, this provokes focus and reclamation. Need support? If this sounds like it makes sense but you want to know more about the process you are welcome to join the 6 month long workshop series women & wolves. Where we cover so many important practices for a women to truly feel “wild”, wild a misused word, but an important and essential action for all women.

We begin Dec 29 7-9 pm GMT. This first session is free so save the date.
