““I find Wisdom Bones to be the missing link in how I want to be met and express myself with other women. Robyn is an exquisite guide for the journey, you can trust her implicitly and feel safe to courageously walk the path of the creative unknown. After each session I leave feeling healed, met, energized, at home in myself and connected to the world. I feel this practice is a vital key for access to the feminine and I cannot recommend it enough!” ”
What is Wisdom Bones?
Part movement class, part improvisational therapeutic theater, Wisdom Bones is a fun, dynamic healing modality for women seeking a profound circle of support that does more than just talk!
Come breathe, stretch, sound, move, touch, roll around on the floor....and bring your soft animal body alive in the company of a circle of women. Each circle culminates with an embodied sharing circle, giving each woman the opportunity to share her truth using movement, sound, and personal storytelling. A full cup of potent medicine!
Here, there is nothing to fix, and nothing to heal, simply an opportunity to be intimate with our own lived experience, however it feels today--rowdy or grieving or celebratory, timid or joyful or on fire. However we find ourselves, we are already whole, already present. Come with your curious heart, your tender heart, your shy heart. All hearts are welcome.
Let Your Body Tell Its Story
When we engage the body, we access a language that is older than our words. Expression through movement can connect us to ourselves, to the earth, and to each other in profound and mysterious ways.
Be lovingly Witnessed
In Wisdom Bones, we learn the skills of conscious, full-bodied witnessing. Witnessing deeply is AS important or perhaps even MORE IMPORTANT than the skills of expressing. When it's your turn to witness, you'll practice the skills of listening from a space of heart-centered non-judgmental awareness, anchored deep into the earth.
beginner's Mind Welcome, No Experience necessary
Here, we each tell vital truths, using not only our voices but also the movement of our bodies. Each participant brings her unique and valuable expression forward. In every circle we form a new piece of living art. There is no right or wrong thing to feel or to express. No experience with any kind of dance or movement practice is necessary. Your nervousness is welcome, and most every first-time participant is at least a little bit nervous....which almost always melts quickly into connection and ease.

“WISDOM BONES
by Helen Light
she is me
and I
am crawling on the floor
shrugging my back and
spitting, spewing out
my tongue
my language
and every piece of
sweet pie
I have been fed
as a pretty girl
you get fed a lot of bullshit, but
here is this woman
brave
and beautifully ugly
claiming her space
her right
to do what the fuck is necessary
for this shit to come out
and I am her
and she is me
sitting side by side
witnessing
in wonder
as my bones vibrate
from the wisdom
of my ancestors
”
