Otter Dance School of Earth Medicine

Welcome to the Otter Dance School of Earth Medicine, a place where ancient traditions merge harmoniously with the demands of modern life. Our mission is to educate, inform, and empower individuals, fostering a deep connection with ancient wisdom and ensuring its seamless integration into contemporary daily practice.

At the Otter Dance School of Earth Medicine, we serve as a bridge between the ancestral teachings and the complexities of today's world. In our shamanic courses, we provide a nurturing environment for exploration and personal growth, acknowledging that each of us brings unique life experiences to this transformative journey.  We believe in supported autonomy for each individual who embarks on this exploration of learning and discovery.

Shamanism, an ancient tradition, and way of life practiced across diverse cultures worldwide, serves as the cornerstone of our teachings. Central to shamanic philosophy is the profound connection between humanity, the Spirit World, and the Natural World, with an unwavering commitment to the well-being of all beings.

Our shamanic curriculum delves into essential elements such as journeying, ceremonial rituals, and practices to support growth and depth of connection to the Spirits. These techniques envelop participants in the community of the shamanic circle, uniting our process with strength, healing, and connection.

The structure of this course will be deliberately immersive, with a focus on exploring shamanic practices on a deeply personal level. The study consists not only of teaching the individual practices of shamanic healing, but also of learning how to connect with the healings, integrate them into our personal practice, and feel our way into a deeper understanding of the nature of this path of service.

If you are ready to take a deep dive into the teachings and mysteries of Shamanism, then the Shamanic Arts Immersion will take you on a path of exploration and self-connection.

We will explore the depth of shamanism and the path of being in service to all of creation.  The shaman is not a title you carry, but rather a way of life to be in service.

Students will learn to create their own relationship with the Spirits and to step into creating Ceremony. Students will be given the tools and practices to create a personal connection to each teaching, and throughout the course, there will be individual work to deepen this understanding between sessions.

If it is time for you to step onto this Path, this teaching will help you open your heart and see the deep knowing within your DNA.  This course will challenge you to bring forward the authentic and tangible truth that is within you.  It will also empower you to remember your connection to all that is Sacred, to all our relations, and to Mother Earth.
