What to Bring: During class sessions we will be working on the floor. Chairs are available for those who need them. Please dress comfortably and bring any seating materials you might need. You might want to bring two sets of clothing appropriate for a ceremonial evening (nice dress, or slacks and shirt). We will be spending a significant time in ceremony. You will be using a pendulum, which can be purchased in many bookstores or new age shops. Bring rattle or drum if you have one.
Come prepared to do evening fire ceremony and outdoor explorations.
Plan according to the time of year and the site location; you may need to bring a coat or jacket, boots, raingear, a flashlight, etc.
You will receive the transmissions of the rites of passage of the Laika tradition. It is customary to gift the person giving the transmissions with a small token of your appreciation (you will need two small gifts). Bring a journal for notes. Handouts are minimal. We honor our tradition as an oral tradition.
In addition to the healing work, you will be doing the work of the South in the Medicine Wheel, the shedding of the attachment to your personal past, the way the Serpent sheds her skin. For this part of the work, you will need to bring three stones. Each stone should fit easily into your hand and move you or speak to you in some way. The stones will be the beginning of your altar. You will need a small ceremonial cloth to hold your stones.
What’s In a Day: Generally, each day will include morning breathing/meditation, teaching segments, sacred movement and dance (we have found that movement opens us to our energetic capacities), skill sessions, demonstrations, practice sessions and processing time. Evenings find us in ceremony.
You may be interested in the Sage Program where you receive individual mentoring throughout your training.

We look forward to seeing you in the South!
