The lineage
What is a red tent, actually?
Across many cultures and most of human history, women on their bleed were not sent to power through it. They were sent to a separate space — sometimes literal, sometimes ritual — where the rest of the village let them rest. Where the work shifted to the women who weren't bleeding. Where the woman in red could drop into the depth of her cycle without performing for anyone.
The modern red tent is a translation of that. Not a re-enactment. A living practice that takes the underlying medicine — slowness, witness, story, ritual — and brings it into the lives of women who have to keep showing up to jobs and relationships and inboxes.
You do not have to be bleeding to attend. You do not have to be in any particular state. You only have to be willing to put your phone down, to sit in a circle with other women, and to let yourself be seen without having to perform anything.
The world will not make this space for you. We're making it ourselves.
My training
In March 2020, in the middle of everything cracking open in my own life, I began my Red Tent Facilitator training with SHE Academy — a four-week training moving through the history and archetypes of the Red Tent, the mother wound and sister wound, integration through yoga, journaling and breathwork, and a live closing circle. That was the turning point where I met the lineage of feminine practice I still teach from today, alongside Taoist and Tantric teachings.
I don't hold circles because I read about them. I hold them because I was held in one first, at the exact moment I needed it most — and I've been building on that training in my own body, and in circles with other women, every year since.
Come sit in the circle.
