Would having a powerful support system while going through adolescence make a difference?
Adolescence is a particularly potent time. Many times young adults are without guidance through some of the most difficult times of their lives. We are at a loss for a rite of passage to honor the significant change and transformation that comes with entering into adulthood in a way that offers a truly empowering experience.
As a teen in our programs you will:
- Realize that you have choices and the power to take responsibility in all situations.
- Find ways to access authentic self expression.
- Learn tools to support health and well being throughout life.
- Access the confidence to move through life changes easily & gracefully.
- Learn to love and trust yourself.
- Value your intuition and self worth.
- Tap into your limitless potential no matter what your circumstances.
- Clearly define your unique dreams and goals as your own.
"There is a need in all people to enter adulthood with guidance, ritual, and community. Traditionally, societies created rites of passage to fit this need as the youth transition to adulthood. Sadly, our society has largely lost this needed tradition. Instead we have created an extended middle realm for teenagers, who are often treated as semi-children and not given proper guidance or respect to enable them in entering into a new phase of life."
-Eliyahu Sills

Our programs include powerful mediums such as art, journaling, backpacking, rafting, hiking, ropes courses, dance, nutrition, singing and yoga. We offer a wide range of modalities to allow participants to try things that they enjoy and also challenge themselves in areas where they are not so comfortable; but have an opportunity to try something new, growing and learning from the experience.
We complete each program with a ceremony to commemorate their experience and victory, honoring their transformation into women.
