A spirit warming day on country - Cultural Intelligence. Our Way.
Magical things evolve when you remove the constraints of time and structure and allow yourself to connect wholly to the present moment. Delivered on 100 acres of bushland in Central Victoria, this Cultural Intelligence offering will take your organisations staff on a deeply spiritual and moving experience that will enlighten perspectives and facilitate connection to the very essence and beauty of First Nations Culture and Way of Being.
As opposed to whiteboards and PowerPoints, this experience will hold safe and “sacred” yarning circles, where transformational learnings and conversations will occur through personal sharing, storytelling and modern ceremonial processes.
Intrinsic to this experience is traditional methodologies of self-care, particularly embodying mother earth in all her forms and having trust in the spirit of place to guide the learning journey for the group involved.
Delivery Method: In-person or Virtual
Location: Victoria
Setting: Corporate

Crafting the Gap
Utilising traditional craft and artefact making as the basis of this experience, this workshop will facilitate a safe space for non Indigbeous people to learn and expand their connection to First Nations Culture, History, Methodologies and Ways of being. This is not the usual cultural intelligence or awareness training, but rather a space themed around deep, respectful and healthy connection to self, others and the land. Participants will leave this workshop with a piece of traditional craft that they have each created from start to finish, representing their growth, transformation and learnings throughout the experience.
Delivery Method: In-person
Location: Victoria only with the possibility of being Australia Wide, recourse dependant.
Setting: Education & Corporate

Acknowledging Country Meaningfully
If your school, organisation or program is based on the lands of Australia’s First Nations Peoples, then this introduction workshop to Acknowledging Country Meaningfully is for you.
Moving beyond the belief that acknowledging county is simply the matter of pronouncing or providing a structured written statement, this workshop explores what it means, looks, sounds and feels like at a deeper and more transformative level and entails content that is immersed with First Nations perspectives, cultural expression (song, language and storytelling) and methodologies of being.
We must move beyond the idea that acknowledging country is only something we do at the beginning of events, assemblies, meetings etc.. we must start to understand what it looks like in action, at a tangible level in our everyday lives.
A follow on to this workshop is our online course “Acknowledging Country Meaningfully”.
