The Wild Woman's Circle™

Teacher Training

A Live Online Certification Course 

Starting January 11, 2025!

A Deep Dive into Embodiment, Ritual & Feminine Practice!

Introducing our live Wild Woman’s Circle™ 

Online Teacher and Practitioner Training!

In this training, you will learn how to lead your own Wild Woman’s Circle™ so you can bring this timely work to the women of your community.

“The Wild Woman’s Way” is Michaela Boehm’s original body of work and draws from her decades of experience teaching women’s groups, her extensive 30k+ hours of counseling practice , and is rooted in her early training in a Kashmiri Shakta tradition of which she is now the lineage holder.

The Wild Woman’s Circle™ uses potent embodiment practices, women’s group exercises, and sacred rituals originally conceived by Michaela for her own women’s circles. The material is designed to provide you with a transformational immersion into this body of work, as both participant and teacher.

Our live online The Wild Woman’s Circle™ training offers new in-depth experiential engagement and enable you to teach, either freestanding (as a weekly or monthly circle) or as an adjunct to other modalities.

The training provides you the turn-key blueprint for an entire The Wild Woman’s Circle™ series, including in-depth training on how to create a safe container for deep practice and business insight gleaned from 20+ years of teaching.

We have added new material and exercises specifically compatible with both the online learning environment and in-person groups. We will teach you how to create community and a strong container within Zoom calls, and will specifically train you on how to offer a potent and seamless online experience.

Learning this potent set of tools will enable you to powerfully explore the realms of women’s practice. This material serves as a means to radically deepen your personal understanding of traversing and immersing into the feminine realms, as well as furnish you with the tools to guide others.

While this program is designed as a teacher training, many participants have taken it as a means to deepen their own personal practice and gain deeper experiential understanding of Michaela’s body of work.

The training is designed to offer you an immersive experience in the comfort of your home. You will receive live instruction from Michaela and Steve, immersive class experiences, in-depth lectures, teaching scripts, and more.

The Wild Woman’s Circle™ training is taught as 4 live interactive online modules, for 42 hours total, and offered in two time streams to fit Europe, Australia, Asia and US time zones. You can find detailed timing and descriptions below.

What is "The Wild 

Woman's Way"?

“The Wild Woman’s Way®” is Michaela’s body of work drawn from her decades of counseling and teaching women’s groups as well as from her training in a female Shakta tradition, of which she is now the lineage holder.

Her bestselling book “The Wild Woman’s Way” serves as a manual for navigating the demands of a busy life while staying connected to pleasure, joy and self-expression. 

The Wild Woman’s Circle™ expands on the themes of the book by offering in-depth engagement with the body, supporting emotional wellness and fostering deeper connection with self and others. This training provides education, inspiration, practical exercises and take home experiences for living as a sensually embodied woman in today’s world.

“Never before have we as women in the West had more opportunity, more choice, and more freedom. Granted, we still have a long way to go, yet compared to any other time in history, we have the greatest options and choices to forge our own paths and determine our own destinies. At the same time, with these opportunities come new challenges and distinct difficulties: the demands of life have created high levels of stress, pressure, disconnect, discomfort, and dis-ease in women.

As women we are now, more than ever, able to have the career we want, we can make our own money, choose our relationships and have the freedom to determine when and if we want children. Yet, our connection to ourselves, to pleasure, to nature and our intimate relationships has suffered. We are ever more disconnected from our biggest ally -the body- and as a result are missing out on a powerful natural resource for aliveness, pleasure and empowerment.“ 

-Excerpt from "The Wild Woman’s Way" book

The Wild Woman's Circle™ Teacher Training draws from Michaela’s decades of professional experience of leading women’s group as well as her 1-on-1 counseling work in the field of trauma and relationship. Her vast expertise of leading and creating experiential workshops combined with her lineage training infuse the embodiment practices, women’s group exercises and ritual you will practice and receive scripts for.

This training is also an invitation for you - to remember the innate wisdom of the body - not defined by looks and shapes and sizes, but the living, feeling body as a portal to unlocking who you truly are.

You will experience the course material, guided by Michaela as a means to deepen your own embodied understanding, which will allow you to teach it with an embodied depth that inspires trust and relaxed resonance in your participants.

You will learn how to create a strong container in which the nervous system of each participant can relax into the exploration of feminine embodiment, inspiring full bodily expression, deepening relationship to pleasure and intimacy, and effectively counteract stress and trauma in the body.

What is The Wild Woman?

The Wild Woman is a part of each of us. She is not the crazed and uncivilized creature she is sometimes made out to be, but the part of us that is deeply and inextricably connected to natural life. She is connected to all things in nature, including her own body, whom she cares for and utilizes as an instrument of perception. She represents the part of each woman that comes from nature and is part of nature.

The Wild Woman is an archetype, and as such, can rise from the unconscious and come into play when the time is right. She is a portal to natural empowerment, through which we understand that we don’t have to “become someone else” to be loved, that who we are is utterly perfect, and that each of us is born with a natural genius that can be revealed and will bloom with the help of our body’s native intelligence.

Each of us has that native, embodied wisdom—a wild, untamed, undomesticated body-mind and heart that knows what is true for us. This looks and feels different for each woman, and no two are ever alike.

The Wild Woman is not a fixed idea or a template into which we need to fit ourselves, but rather a portal, an entry point into our vast and rich inner landscape.

Principles

Engaging with the Energetics of a Woman’s Body

Even though each woman is built as a unique expression, with her own physiological and psychological makeup, and our personal history and programming determine how we each relate to our bodies, there are some principles that apply to all of us.

We use a framework Michaela calls “Energy Distribution,” which teaches us to pay attention to how our life force energy is distributed within our body at any given time. As women we are uniquely connected to our lower bodies. Power to create, instinct and our ability to feel pleasure (and procreate) sits in the lower part of our body.

Many women nowadays experience the gradual loss of connection to the feelings and sensations of their body, especially the lower body. With stress and overwhelm come numbness, maladaptive coping mechanisms (in the form of overeating, addictions, etc.), and disconnection.

When we “get into our heads,” and prioritize thinking and doing over feeling and being, our thoughts and actions take on a compulsive quality and our body gets tense and tight. Headaches, a clenched jaw and neck pains become all too common.

Once we are in the mindset of getting things done, it is not easy to get back to the relaxed, open state of flowing naturally. Even if we know intellectually that we should slow down, the energetics in our body might no longer cooperate.

Knowing where the energy gets stuck, meaning, being able to detect areas of tightness and tension is the first step towards distributing the energy differently. Simple movement of the hips, thighs and lower body can effectively counteract the effects of a body stuck in “go”.

Each element taught in this training provides exploration and experiential insight into your energetic habits and offers simple yet effective ways to “re-embody” and experience flow.

Coming Back to Pleasure 

in the Body

“How do I escape the seemingly inevitable reality of disconnection and stress, and their effects on my body, without giving up the ability to be successful and productive?” This question arises frequently whenever we teach.

The answer is to become fluent in both the world of work and stress, but to also reclaim our natural state of aliveness and pleasure. Since vitality and sensual sensations happen in and through the body, trying to think our way into them is like trying to think our way into riding a bicycle. Reading books on bicycle riding and talking about bicycle riding do not translate into sitting on a bike and knowing how to ride! Thinking and talking about reclaiming your pleasure is a start, but it does not necessarily translate into having the bodily wherewithal to open, soften, and relaxed. Physical closures, contractions, and habits are acquired through repetition can be undone by consciously practicing new patterns within your body and nervous system.

As humans, we learn through repetition. Every activity is wired into the body-mind through repeating an activity. When we learn something new, our whole system interconnects. What first felt foreign and almost impossible to do, over time and repetition becomes the pattern we use automatically.

All patterns have somatic, emotional, and mental components. Once a pattern has been learned, it is accessed automatically and becomes second nature. We can counteract existing patterns of stress and closure by learning new, simple activities that over time become the new “go-to” patterns of our body.

There are two parallel approaches. First we create awareness of tension and tightness in the body and counteract those constrictions by bringing the energy into the lower body. 

Second, we bring attention to sensual experiences that are already available. Instead of looking for outside “fixes” and stimuli, which often require even more “doing”, we can create awareness of what is already there. 

Feminine 

Embodiment

Embodiment has become quite the buzzword and there are many ways to define it. In this training we define it as an ability to listen to the messages the body sends and being able to keep our thinking mind, our emotions and our bodies connected and integrated.

In this context, the term “embodiment” can be understood to mean “coming back into the body.” Of course, as long as we are alive, we are always in our bodies. But that does not mean we are aware of what is happening in our body.

Embodiment is the process of becoming alive to the signals of our bodies. The awareness of the signals of the body can also be described as sensual recognition. Being with the full array of sensory and emotional perception—the sublime as well as the ugly—allows us to savor the full human experience: body, mind, and spirit – alive, open, and integrated. You will receive practices and exercises that facilitate embodiment regardless of the different level or experience of each participant. These exercises are designed to reveal each participants unique connection to her body and empower her to engage with embodiment in a deeply personal way.

Creating meaningful 

intimate relationships

It all begins with our relationship to our own body. Before we can connect with and feel others, we need to become sensitive to and educated about our own energetic dynamics. Once you understand your own reasons for any numbness, tension, and strain that you may carry in your body, you can easily undo the related habitual body patterns and restore yourself to a state of pleasurable aliveness and sensual well-being.

From there we can connect within an intimate relationship from a place of empowerment. Being able to feel ourselves also allows us to set appropriate boundaries and with that we can be more generous when we actually want to interact.

The practices of sensitization, relaxation and full feminine expression through the body allows us to be more available, sensitive and expressed with the intimate partner of our choice. You’ll be able to play within the full range of expressions, without getting stuck in “go” mode and heady disconnect.

The practices you will engage in - and learn to facilitate -  in this training are designed to offer sensitization, relaxation and expression for each participant and in turn allow for a deeper connection to others.
