Grace

A workshop that lets your body lead, and your mind learn. Because your body is your interface point with life. To be at home in our bodies is to be at home anywhere.

Designed for women to learn our unique approach to embodied learning - allowing the body to lead the mind, transform emotion, challenge fixed patterns to create sustainable shifts in your life.

EMBODIMENT

Embodiment = transforming knowledge + desire + energetic being into a muscular commitment in action. Bringing our attention to the sensation of self and feeling the sensation of life as it appears in our bodies is the beginning of embodiment. When we do this, we are attending to life in a fundamental way. When we embody these intentional actions and practices we produce a new social shape for living.

“Movement creates movement. When we move the body, we can move the mind, we can move emotions, we can move communities, and we can move mountains.”

—Krista Petty

THE METHOD

We believe the intersection of all three areas is where harmony and unlimited freedom lives. Experience the fullness of this process in Grace.

SACRED COUNCIL FOR WOMEN

In Grace, we share in a sacred practice from Indigenous cultures around the world. In these cultures often times when there is an issue with someone in the tribe, the medicine people are called and ask primary questions:

When was the last time you sang? When was the last time you danced? When was the last time nature rinsed your heart? When was the last time you spoke your truth and listened to the truth of others?

  • “Something inside me drew me to explore what it means to be a woman. For so long I felt like a girl living in a woman’s body. What I discovered in Grace is how to use all facets of who I am, the girl, the woman, the feminine and the masculine. Our society lacks a coming of age ceremony and a time to set intentions and stating what it means to be a woman. Grace provided that space. And the past that resonated with the most is creating tools to integrate this into my life in a lasting way. Krista’s coaching was spot on.”

    — Ashley Booth, Oceanographer

  • “It’s amazing how life-changing a weekend can be. I entered Grace feeling exhausted, deflated, and not very excited about the life I’d created. I left full of energy, clarity, and an intrinsic knowledge that I am the architect of my life and I have the power to create my experience and my results. Here’s to a life of joy, peace, and abundance!”

    — Sherri Coffelt, Business Owner

  • “I walked away humbled by the professionalism, clarity and usefulness of the skill sets introduced. Not only did we learn these skills, we practiced them rigorously and I can see a tremendous difference within myself and my relationships. Run don’t walk to this amazing resource!”

    — Lan Nguyen, Civil Engineeer

  • “Grace is everything I needed that I didn’t even know I needed. I learned what it truly feels like to love myself to the core. I kept telling myself that “I love myself”, but now I know what it feels like in my bones. I learned to own my worth and my place in the world. 9 months later I still use the tools I learned in Grace. It is my newly imprinted being. It is who I am not just in a training I went thorugh, I have always been an extra feminine woman. People even asked me “why did you even do Grace, you are already so feminine?” For me Grace taught me how to have power in my feminine.”

    — Jennifer Korehe, Behavior Therapist

  • “Grace provided the structure and opportunity to reconnect with the primal, feminine, masculine, joyful, and intuitive sides of myself. In doing so, my inner wisdom is able to float to the surface unlocking messages my body wants me to hear.”

    — Abigail Finck, Leadership Advisor & Coach

  • “Grace was an unhurried unfolding for me that created a radical reconnection to the wisdom my body holds. I left the weekend reminded of the power of my own woman-ness, and of the collective power that we as women have when we come together in council. We get to be fierce and calm, strong and soft, loud and delicate, and embody both masculine and feminine… all at once. And movement, dance, and play are definitely, always the right decision for unlocking my inherent Knowing.”

    — Krista Geiger-Simpson, Coach & Entrepreneur

  • “Being a part of the Grace workshop was a collective experience and an opportunity to be in touch and harness our divine feminine power through movement, breathing, self reflection, exploration of our femininity through shared wisdom, and being in a community of empowered women from all pillars of life. I walked away from the weekend feeling humbled, recharged, connected and at home with myself.”

    — Pia Edlagan, RN

  • “The Grace experience is one of deep connection, deep sharing, and deep wisdom. A beautiful space to explore one’s sacred feminine, feel empowered to be authentic, and be CURIOUS!! And the power of the community keeps it alive even when the weekend ends. That is Grace!”

    — Donna Dupuy, Workspace Development and Design Manager

  • “Grace is a safe space to shed ideas of what being a woman should be and step into what being a woman is TO ME. What I'm taking from Grace is the ability to meet myself in any moment -- that joy, sadness, trust, doubt, passion, and shame can all exist within me and that they all deserve to belong. I learned to connect the physical sensations in my body to what they show me about what I might think and feel or what I might resist thinking and feeling. I'm walking away empowered by the wisdom of who I am, and I'm inspired to carry my unique perspective and way of walking the world into my relationships, work, and communities.”
