Super Powerful & Healing
Byanca Franco
Super powerful experience full of Love and healing . Not only did I learn skills to better help future clients , but was able to get understanding on my own postpartum healing that I never received 5years ago .
Excellent Teaching
Angela Leon
The workshop is a thoroughly experiential and sensuous training! For me, the markers of a good learning experience include telling (through theory), showing (through demos), feeling (through practice), and processing (through sharing, crying, laughing). Tema included all of these components with gracious expertise. The workshop is wonderful for both community members who are looking to support birthing people in their life as well as birth workers who have been immersed in the calling for many years.
Simple yet Mindblowing
Hanna Malm
It was a workshop where we were made to feel we were just as important as our clients and wee needed to first treat ourselves and take care of ourselves as much as our clients. Which intellectually I know but this workshop made it such a real practice. I can only take as good care of my clients as I take of myself, simple and mind blowing ant the same time.
Inspiring & Truly Magical
Anayeli Cruz Cazares
Inspiring and truly magical. I would say that its a safe space to learn and to practice and not feel judged. The practices I learned were very valuable and the content of the workshop and flow was smooth.
Grounding & Transformative
Farra Miron
Grounding and transformative. A truly healing space to explore and learn in.
Amazing, healing and beautiful!
Sherry Jones
Amazing, healing, beautiful and opportunity to connect with yourself and gain hands-on tools to use in your birth work practice immediately. A wonderful experience all around.
I like Tema's Teaching Style
Wendy Acosta
I like the way that tema teaches. Something that really drew me in was her teaching style. Her class has a flow to it and she makes that happen through her respect for the work along with the things that arise throughout the class such as questions, thoughts and experiences that are shared by her students. She has many teaching tools she uses such as storytelling, touch and song that allows you to pick up the material with your whole body. I loved each moment and I had the opportunity to learn from her.
Everything I wanted and more!
Celeste Guerra
Everything I was looking for and then more. A beautifully supported learning environment that discussed what healing is, what it may look like, and why it is needed.
Exceeded Expectations
Ariana Martinez
I have been trying to describe how life changing the workshop was for me to friends and it’s hard to put into words. So far, I have been saying that yes, it was full of hands on learning and information but even more it was an invitation into first honoring the medicine in our own lives. Our workshop honestly exceeded my expectations! I really enjoyed that the whole day was filled with learning and intention. But at the same time, we free flowed with the energy of the day.
Follow my Heart
Berenice Dimas
am definitely integrating all that I learned in my current practice as a doula, herbalist, and bodyworker. Many people in my community are benefiting from the knowledge Tema shared. What the journey also offered me was an opportunity to reflect on my own path. Since then, I've decided to follow my heart and apply for a midwifery program. I am so grateful for all that Tema offered us at the retreat. It has literally shifted the course of my life so that it is aligned with my heart.
