This is not just a dance training. This is a remembering.
There comes a time in a woman's life when something within her begins to stir.
A longing to move differently.
To live more instinctively.
To stop shrinking, pleasing, performing and apologising for the space she occupies.
A longing to feel her body again. To trust her rhythms. To remember the wild, sensual, creative and sovereign woman beneath all the expectations.
SHE MOVES WILD was born from that longing.
An invitation to return to the body as a place of wisdom, expression, pleasure and belonging.
To dance with the seasons.
To honour the cycles of the Moon.
To understand the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda.
To find sanctuary in Sacred Rest Yoga.
And to rediscover the extraordinary medicine of women gathering together.
Because a woman's body is not a problem to fix.
It is a rhythm to remember.
A new way of holding space for women
SHE MOVES WILD is an emerging embodied feminine facilitator training created by Andrea Jackson, founder of The Wild Woman Academy.
Drawing upon over 30 years of experience in yoga, Ayurveda, Goddess wisdom, sacred movement, ritual and women's circles, this training brings together ancient teachings and contemporary embodied practice.
At its heart is free, intuitive, expressive dance.
Not choreography.
Not performance.
Not moving to look beautiful.
But moving to feel.
To express.
To explore the many landscapes of the feminine.
To become more deeply at home in your body.
And alongside the dance, we weave the practices that help us remain rooted, nourished and connected.
Movement and stillness. Expression and integration. Wildness and rest.
This is the dance of the feminine.
The Five Sacred Threads of SHE MOVES WILD…
1. Embodied Dance — The Liberated Woman
Dance is at the heart of our journey.
Through intuitive movement, elemental dance, rhythm, shaking, spiralling, breath and free expression, we explore the body as a living landscape of sensation and wisdom.
We learn to move beyond choreography and perfection, allowing movement to become an authentic expression of who we are.
We explore the Wild Woman, the Lover, the Mother, the Creatrix, the Queen and the Wise Woman through embodied archetypal journeys.
We don't dance to become someone else. We dance to remember ourselves.
2. Ayurveda — The Nourished Woman
Ayurveda reminds us that we are part of Nature, not separate from her.
Through the wisdom of the five elements, the doshas, daily rituals, seasonal nourishment and mindful living, we explore ways to support our wellbeing.
We learn to recognise our individual rhythms, understand the qualities of each season and cultivate practices that nourish rather than deplete us.
Not another set of rules to follow.
But an invitation to live in greater relationship with ourselves and the natural world.
3. Sacred Rest Yoga — The Resting Woman
Wildness is not always loud.
Sometimes the most radical thing a woman can do is stop.
Within SHE MOVES WILD, Sacred Rest Yoga offers a counterbalance to expressive movement.
Through restorative postures, supported stillness, breath awareness, Yoga Nidra and deep relaxation, we explore the art of slowing down.
We learn to honour our limits, listen to our bodies and make space for integration.
Because liberation is not about constantly doing more.
It is also about giving ourselves permission to rest.
4. Seasonal & Cyclical Living — The Rhythmic Woman
We are cyclical beings living in a world that often demands constant productivity.
Within this training, we explore the wisdom of the seasons, lunar cycles, feminine life stages and the changing rhythms of our energy.
We honour the Maiden, Mother, Enchantress and Crone as symbolic expressions of the feminine.
We explore menstruation, menopause and the transitions of womanhood with respect for each woman's unique experience.
We learn to work with the rhythms of Nature rather than continually pushing against them.
And we remember that every season of a woman's life carries its own wisdom.
5. Ritual, Goddess Wisdom & Sisterhood — The Sacred Woman
Women have gathered for generations to share stories, mark transitions, celebrate, grieve, sing, dance and honour the mysteries of life.
SHE MOVES WILD draws inspiration from this tradition of gathering.
Through Goddess archetypes, lunar rituals, seasonal ceremonies, journaling, meditation and sacred circle work, we explore the power of intentional space.
We learn to listen deeply.
To witness without judgement.
To honour boundaries.
And to create spaces where women feel welcomed, respected and free to be themselves.
Because women need women. And sisterhood is something we can consciously cultivate.
The Elemental Journey…
Our proposed year-long training follows the turning Wheel of the Year, moving through four elemental gateways.
EARTH — The Rooted Woman…
January – March | Winter
I belong to myself.
We begin by returning to the body.
Grounding, belonging, ancestral wisdom, wintering, nourishment and creating foundations of safety.
Our dances are earthy, rhythmic and rooted.
We explore the wisdom of slowing down, the qualities of Kapha, the importance of rest and the art of creating welcoming circles.
WATER — The Sensual Woman…
April – June | Spring
I give myself permission to feel.
We awaken the flowing, sensual, creative feminine.
Through spirals, undulations, fluid movement and intuitive dance, we explore emotional expression, pleasure, receptivity and creative energy.
We deepen our relationship with lunar wisdom, feminine cycles, the senses and the Goddess as the flowing expression of Shakti.
FIRE — The Liberated Woman…
July – September | Summer
I reclaim my voice, my desire and my power.
Fire invites us into courage, passion, boundaries and authentic expression.
Through shaking, rhythmic dance, strong movement and expressive practices, we explore the woman who is no longer willing to make herself small.
We meet the archetypes of Kali, Durga and the untamed Wild Woman.
We explore the transformative qualities of fire, alongside the Ayurvedic wisdom of tending our inner heat without burning ourselves out.
AIR & SPIRIT — The Sovereign Woman…
October – December | Autumn
I am free to be fully myself.
Our final gateway invites integration, wisdom, spaciousness and surrender.
Through breath-led movement, expansive dance, ritual and stillness, we explore freedom, intuition and the wisdom of the Crone.
We deepen our understanding of Vata, autumn rhythms, sacred rest and conscious endings.
And we begin to bring everything together as women preparing to hold space for others.
From Embodiment to Facilitation
This journey is not only about your own experience.
It is also about learning to share embodied feminine practices with other women.
The proposed facilitator pathway will explore:
Creating and holding women's circles with care, consent and clear boundaries.
Guiding intuitive and elemental dance without relying on choreography.
Designing embodied journeys inspired by seasons, lunar cycles and feminine archetypes.
Weaving appropriate Ayurvedic lifestyle wisdom and Sacred Rest Yoga into gatherings.
Working with music, rhythm, storytelling, journaling and ritual.
Understanding trauma-aware facilitation, accessibility, safeguarding and the limits of your professional role.
Supporting integration and recognising when additional professional support may be needed.
Developing your own authentic voice and style as a facilitator.
Practising and receiving feedback on your own circle and embodiment sessions.
The intention is to support women in becoming confident, compassionate and creative facilitators, able to share this work within the scope of their training.
The final qualification, assessment requirements and accreditation arrangements are currently being developed.
Who is SHE MOVES WILD for?
This journey may be calling you if…
You are a yoga teacher longing to bring more intuitive movement and feminine wisdom into your work.
You already hold women's circles and want to deepen your understanding of embodiment, ritual and cyclical living.
You love dance but have never felt drawn to choreography or performance.
You are a coach, holistic practitioner or space holder seeking new ways to bring embodied practices into your offerings.
Or perhaps you are a woman standing at a threshold in your own life, feeling called to explore your body, creativity, voice and feminine wisdom more deeply.
You do not need to be a professional dancer.
You do not need to move in a particular way.
You simply need curiosity, openness and a willingness to meet yourself through movement.

Andrea Jackson
Founder of The Wild Woman Academy™
For over 30 years, my path has woven through yoga, meditation, Ayurveda, Goddess wisdom, sacred movement, ritual and the extraordinary power of women gathering together.
But somewhere along the way, I began to feel a deeper calling.
A longing to move beyond the shapes and structures.
To dance.
To express.
To reclaim the parts of myself that had been quiet for far too long.
And the more I allowed myself to move freely, the more I remembered something essential.
I didn't need to become a different woman.
I needed to give myself permission to be the woman I already was.
Wild. Sensual. Creative. Wise. Expressive. Free.
SHE MOVES WILD is an expression of that remembering.
It brings together the wisdom I've spent decades gathering, with the movement and freedom that make me feel most alive.
And my vision is to share this work with women who feel called to take it into their own communities.
To create more circles.
More movement.
More sisterhood.
More spaces where women can simply be themselves.
Because the world doesn't need more women trying to be good.
It needs women who feel free to be fully themselves.
Something Wild Is Beginning…
SHE MOVES WILD is currently in development, and I would love to hear from women who feel called towards this new facilitator journey.
If you can feel something stirring as you read these words, perhaps this is your invitation.
An invitation to move.
To remember.
To reclaim.
And one day, perhaps, to hold the space for other women to do the same.
