ACADEMY OFFERINGS
In many indigenous ways the circle of directions not only represents the technology and teachings of the east, south, west and north but stages of a persons growth and learning cycles. Traditionally each direction is held by guardian of wisdom including different animals, rocks, elements and more.
Because this academy is taught from a woven tradition it draws upon the imagery and relationships of four main wisdom guardians : bee, cacao, jaguar, and hummingbird. Representing the East, south, west and north.

HUMMINGBIRD RITE OF PASSGE CIRCLES:
Ik' 3 Breath PRACTICE
®
IK': Indigenous Breath for re-connection
Practicing Liberating Connection through reclaiming and re-creating rites of passage
​
The Ik’ Three Breath Practice comes to us at a time when the world no longer has rites of passage which celebrates the stages of who we are in relation to our own path of wisdom.
This has led humanity to find itself in crisis, a time of war and dismantling of systems. This is an evolution and weaving of multiple practices, which have had to change to deal with the accelerating speed and consumption of the western world. Indigenous traditions are living traditions that change, not systems of culture frozen in time and space like a photograph.
We are devouring ourselves, faster and faster.
The medicine has had to change.
