Re-Wilding Nature Immersion for Girls

Nature & Re-Wilding Immersion for girls who are ready to claim their innate power

Suitable for 11-14yrs 

Adolescence can be a time of uncertainty and turbulence for young women. They are often launched into it with little consciousness, support and guidance. At the same time, we live in a society where girls and boys are constantly at the receiving end of unconscious gender bias and stereotyping. 

The intention behind this immersion for young girls is to introduce the practice and art of ancestral and bushcraft skills, stereotypically associated with men, so they can feel empowered in applying these skills to all areas of their life, and not feel limited by how they perceive a young woman ‘should’ act.

The immersion offers an introduction to a wide array of skills during the week, then invites the cohort of girls to spend 2D1N camping on a beautiful beach in Hong Kong to apply the skills they have learned on a practical level, as well as serving as an initiation that supports their transformation; Stepping into their unique brilliance, power and purpose. 

Parents & guardians are invited to join our integration ceremony on the final day, Sun 22nd Dec. It is essential that at least 1 guardian is present for this ceremony to witness them. 

*Limited to 6 girls*
