WILD SELF
A Body Soul Creative Journey
12 month program with Kat Nantz and Tessa Fleming
Program begins: April 20th 2025
Time: 1pm - 5pm EST
if you’ve landed here on this page, you likely feel a longing that you want to become more aquatinted with.
That longing, the feelings of being lost, misplaced, not quite right, numb, agitated, feeling outside your body like you can never quite land, are all ways your soul beckons you to listen, to come home.
What is a body soul creative journey?
It's a potent Re-membering ritual.
A song we sing over our bodies, a song that when we hear it, it reminds us of something we abandoned long ago.
It calls all our wild and wise, our lost and hidden parts of ourselves home.
Through art, intuitive writing, movement, somatics, meditation, and storytelling, we tend to the deeper longings within ourselves and our society.
This program invites us to reintroduce the creative, playful, curious, wild, embodied parts of ourself.
It’s a soft yet honest landing, an opportunity to fully inhabit our body's in a way that feels long forgotten.
Restoring the natural rhythm and wisdom that exists within.
WHAT THE PROGRAM IS ABOUT
With Clarissa Pinkola Estés’s Women Who Run With the Wolves as our guide the program will be structured each month around one chapter, or in some cases just one myth or story.
Honouring the celebration of animal instinct in the book and our own nature, the program will also be structured around the different seasons, honouring our body's cyclical nature.
The myths and stories will sound and support us into the changing rhythms each new month brings.
This book is a powerful resource, a sacred text.
The book is a love letter to the wild women in each of us- an archetypal force and energy that each of us has.
Together in a community of women we will unearth the book’s wisdom through listening, sharing, discussion, dance, movement, writing, art making. It is through these practices in a community of seekers that we begin to see ourselves in the stories, begin to listen for, heel to and live with the Wild Self within.
Now we are going to speak to you soul…
The program is a vital life force.
It is a song sung over lifetimes and ancestors. It's the lullaby to comfort and the anthem to stand tall.
Domestication is the water we swim in.
To truly know yourself you must be willing to leap from the waters you know.
To breathe bigger and deeper than ever before, to speak with a breath so strong it moves the trees, to plant your feet so firmly on the ground that the roots beneath come up to meet you.
You are more than the life you are living.
You feel it in your bones.
The program is uninterrupted time with parts of you.
Parts and beings that are long forgotten. The program is time to come into direct contact with your deep knowing.
We don’t do this work alone.
The soul is shy but comes alive in community.
In community our truth is reflected back to us in each other’s lives and the stories and myths we will read.
We are pack animals, we are a co-regulating species.
We need each other, and that is why this program centres relationships and we do this work together. This is an honest space.
This is a space where you’ll be invited to shed the layers and stories of who you were told to be, to put your feet in the rich soil of your own growth and be witness to the story of your own becoming.
This description is a story.
Do you see yourself in it?
MEET YOUR FACILITATORS
Hi, I'm Kat Nantz
I'm a somatic pleasure coach & Somatic Experiencing trained at the Advanced level. My passion is bringing more pleasure and freedom to folks who struggle to be in their body or who have experienced trauma (Hint! This is most of us!).
It is an incredible privilege to be a trusted guide in this work. I feel deeply honoured to hold folks in their most tender moments, to return them home to their body's and pleasure, to witness them in their bravest and scariest moments of becoming.
I offer this work because it transformed my life, completely. I hope it will offer you the same gifts.
Now we are going to speak to that part of your brain that wants to know all the details…
