Growing Women’s Circles or Red Tents
Creating Community With Women
Live Workshop Recording
A women’s circle is a small group of women who meet regularly for some purpose. They are an important way for women to connect with each other and with themselves. The focus of the circle can be anything that the women have in common.
The Red Tent is a multi-generational woman-only space where women can honor the cycles of our lives. It is a place for women to speak the unspeakable, to name our experiences, our fears and joys of womanhood, and to connect with other women. A Red Tent Ritual is a sacred space set aside to sing, to speak our truth and to sink into the cycles. All women are welcome in the Red Tent, whether you are bleeding, past bleeding, or yet to bleed; whether you have a womb or have had a hysterectomy.
If you want to start facilitating Women’s Circles and Red Tents or want to empower yourself in your own practice, this class will guide you into the Women’s Mysteries of the Red Tent. We will talk about the history (herstory) of the Red Tent and the power of women’s space. You will learn basic structure of ritual creation, tips about facilitating ritual, how to set up the physical space, as well as many songs, chants, and meditations.
After this workshop, you will feel equipped to offer Women’s Circles and/or Red Tent Circles for the women in your life and have more structure for your own personal practice. Please join me in the Red Tent!
