Welcome to this training retreat experience to guide you back to your deep intuitive knowing through a programme of intuitive healing arts for life long female health, well-being and empowerment. This is a rematriation, a multi-dimensional nurturing of embodied wisdom. Yoni Shakti is our text book, and our bodies are our guides. This programme is more than a training course - it's a call to action for all women ready to reclaim their vitality and wisdom in a nurturing and supportive environment.
Re-awaken your intuition and reclaim your vitality. Reconnect to the wellspring of deep intuitive knowing. Welcome wholeness and cyclical wisdom for yourself and others.
In capitalist cultures that overlook and exploit the profound power of feminine energy, it’s time to reconnect and embrace your whole self. Experience how trusting your embodied wisdom can liberate vitality and health for you and those you serve.
The Yoni Shakti Training is a nurturing and nourishing learning retreat where you are supported to advocate for intuition as a clear inner compass to guide you, and those you serve, back to wholeness and health. It is a profound exploration for personal and planetary well-being, held with love and nurture by our Yoni Shakti team.
Learn experientially to embody the wisdom of your deeply intuitive knowing. We share a practical programme of intuitive potent intersectional eco-feminist healing arts including primarily (but not exclusively) therapeutic yoga techniques to nourish and restore your energy and joyful connection to life:

What to Expect
Yoga Nidra
known as the yoga of sleep, is a guided practice that facilitates conscious sacred rest. This profound relaxation technique helps you reconnect with your inner guidance and intuition, offering deep mental and emotional restoration.
Yoni Shakti Yoga
involves gentle, rhythmic movements and therapeutic yoga practices designed to nurture the female body. These movements promote ease, strength, and comfort, helping you awaken and harmonise your vital feminine energy.
Rituals of Rematriation
is an honouring of the Earth, ancestors, and the Great Wisdom Goddesses. By integrating rematriation into your practice, you contribute to collective healing and justice, aligning with the cycles of nature and spirituality. As a part of this we include daily devotions though bhakti song and kirtan.
Cyclical Wisdom
focuses on aligning your practice with the rhythms of your life cycles, including menstruation, menopause, and seasonal changes. This approach fosters harmony with the lunar and seasonal cycles, supporting your overall well-being.
Sangha
is the practice of building a supportive community through circle time. This space allows for sharing, connection, and mutual support, enhancing your sense of belonging and collective healing.
Rematriated teaching methods
This cyclical training retreat is taught through stories, sharing and experiential learning by doing and by resting. We share wisdom through experiential anatomy, small shakti circles for connection and advocacy for intuition; yoga nidra for deep rest to recover your embodied wisdom, and bhakti (devotion) to rediscover your heartfelt connection to the pulse of life, and the flow of the life force energy through your being.
Rhythm of the Retreat

Is this training right for me?
Please know that you do not need to be a yoga teacher to do this course! This training is a deep retreat and empowerment for all those supporting (or wishing to support) women's health and vitality. In the past we have welcomed many people to the course who are not yoga teachers, for example: doulas, midwives, women's health physiotherapists, reflexologists, health coaches, psychologists and counsellors, doctors, acupuncturists, healers, massage therapists, medicine people and womb health workers of all traditions. If you have a personal practice of yoga and are feeling the call to join this course, please don't hesitate - you are welcome! The practices of yoga therapy are very transferrable skills and we look forward to sharing them with you. The healing we can share through these practices is rooted in self-practice and intuitive knowing.

Kate Codrington Menopause Facilitator, Speaker & Author
My name is Kate Codrington, and I’m the author of Second Spring and the Perimenopause Journal. I’m a facilitator and speaker with a focus on menopause and ageing and have been a therapist for more than 30 years.
I did the Yoni Shakti course in 2014 in London because I wanted to bring more movement to my offerings and I wanted to do that in a safe and trauma informed way.
While I was doing the course I was inspired by the possibilities for changing the experience of being in a female body by caring for the cycles.
When I finished I felt empowered to offer a safe container for my people to find their own movement that would satisfy their hearts and wombs.
What I valued most was that both the Yogic philosophy, the physiology and the practices were woven together in a digestible way. For someone that struggles to learn on someone else’s time-frame, it was really do-able and nourishing. The course also attracts a brilliant crew of like-minded people some of whom I’m still friends with a decade later.
Doing this course gave me a great delight in my own seasonal-based movement practice, and confidence to bring a wider range of movement possibilities to my clients and retreats, and permission for them to find their own way to what suited them best.
If you were considering doing this course, I would recommend you dive in. Alongside the learning, you’ll likely deepen your connection with your body and this will spread in ripples through your community. We need more embodied people!!
