Wild Resonance
November 7th-9th
Co-Facilitator & Artist - Maya Victorine
Maya Victorine has traveled the world, seeking the practice of Butoh Dance. Learning from many different butoh masters, such as Rhizome Lee and Atsushi Tak Enuchi, local teachers on the west coast, and also living in butoh communities. The butoh practice helps one develop increased awareness of one’s self and body, your surroundings, and the natural environment, and turns the “listening” into a dance expression. Maya has continually focused on “eco-resonance”, creating an unbiased ear and authentically relating to nature as “really, really, real”. Maya leads exercises for hyperawareness, and channels guided meditations that push forward the imagination and our listening skills. Maya is also a massage therapist, spoken word artist, photographer, breathwork teacher and core shamanism practitioner.
Co-Facilitator & Artist - Siena Radice
Starting her entertainment career at the young age of 3 years old, Siena became a professional performer and is very excited to collab with butoh artist, Maya Victorine. After taking a break from dancing after a severe injury, there is nothing more Siena would rather do than combine her love of intentional movement and mindfulness with her love for the wild at heart. After some traveling and “out of matrix” experiencing, Siena has become dedicated to creating her path of life and helping others seek out and communicate to their own. Having gained further education in somatic therapy, plant based medicines, and multiple cultural healing arts, Siena is a grounded healing facilitator ready to share the peaceful techniques she has found along her life journey.

Butoh Movement Sessions during the Retreat
During the Wolf retreat, Maya Victorine will lead the group in eco-resonance movement classes outside. We will develop a core practice of “sensitivity", “momentum”, and “not moving till moved”. We will use breathwork and qi gong to initiate inner movement and an intimate connection with the nature around us. With these skills in tow, we can then start to create dance that brings forth our own perspective from within nature. We will get the experience of resonating with the wolves and finding our own wild dance from within. A shamanic drum journey will be provided to further connect you to the magic of the animal spirits.
This is primarily an outdoor event, so be prepared for all weather and to connect deeply with your own understanding and limits.
*Further information about the retreat and what to expect will be emailed to you prior to your arrival. If you have any further questions about your time with us, please feel free to reach us at siena.radice@wildspiritwolfsanctuary.org.
We are so excited to have you!
