This workshop is a part of Terrapia School of Transformation Open House

https://www.terrapia.org/single-post/terrapia-school-of-transformation-open-house Join us for a one-day Solstice retreat to honor the closing of 2025 and welcome the returning light.


This powerful day invites you to move, reflect, sing, dance, and walk through the fire — releasing what’s complete and awakening the strength, clarity, and joy you’ll carry into the new year.


At the heart of this journey lies the Firewalk — a timeless ritual of transformation and courage.


As you step barefoot across glowing coals (or hold space with drumming and song), you cross the threshold between what was and what is becoming.


It’s a profound, embodied experience of trust, presence, and renewal — an initiation into your next cycle of life.


Through movement, song, meditation, and elemental ceremony, we gather as a community to celebrate the turning of the light and the wisdom of the passing year.
