We’re so glad you’re interested in going deeper with
The Wildwood Path!
Find out more about our one-day and short-term public workshops HERE.
We currently offer two all-online cohorts and four hybrid online/in-person cohorts.
Applications are coming in now for our ongoing learning circle, with this year’s commitment starting in October 2020 and running through June 2021. Applications for all of our long-term cohorts are accepted on an ongoing basis, until the cohort is full or the program begins. Programs often fill quickly!
The all-online program dates do not conflict with each other or the in-person cohorts, so you can join up to 3 cohorts: two online and one in person. The in-person cohorts are part of our long term learning Circle, so when you apply and are accepted into the circle, you can choose to enter one of several cohorts, as outlined below. The all-online cohorts are open to all genders and the in-person hybrid cohorts are women and/or trans only.
Our application process is two-fold: Please complete the following application and send it to our mentors via this form. We will contact you to schedule a phone interview to discuss your interest in the program and to go over any questions or concerns… If it’s a good fit, we’ll officially invite you into the circle, you can say “Yes!” or “No, thank you!” and can begin the at-home preparation for our first session!
We would love to have you join us for a wild, wonderful wander of learning, sharing, and transformation!
In person/online hybrid Cohorts (Women and/or Trans):
If it’s your first time joining the an in-person cohort, you must begin with The Bear Cohort and can choose to expand into The Wheel Star Cohort or Light of the Land Cohort if you continue for multiple years.

Please note that you must join this cohort with at least one other participant who can get together with you in person for embodied skills and practices.
Woodward Cohort: Regenerating Economics through Nature Connection … an adventure in learning from the wisdom of nature as we develop our thinking and practices around investing in ways to relate with exchange, multiple forms of capital, reciprocity, and abundance in the systems of our world. A cohort embarking on a journey of shared natural and cultural practices that inform emergent economic questions– all of which comes together in support of practical manifestations that will be unique to each member’s circumstances.
