THE CALL YOU'RE FEELING
Maybe you're drawn to this work but aren't sure where to begin. Women are craving deeper connection, ritual, and sacred community.
Holding space in circle is powerful. It heals. It connects. It creates the kind of authentic community people are craving right now. If you're feeling called to facilitate circles, that calling matters. People in your community need what you're here to offer: sacred space, genuine connection, ritual with meaning, and the kind of holding that allows real transformation.
What you need is comprehensive training to do this work with skill and confidence. Training that covers cultural integrity, circle structure, group dynamics, and sustainable business foundations. Training from someone who's spent a decade holding this work professionally and wants to share everything they've learned.
This training gives you the skills to hold space beautifully, the cultural wisdom to work with ritual respectfully, the practical knowledge to structure circles that work, and the business foundations to build a thriving practice.
You know circles are needed right now. You can feel the hunger for authentic connection, ritual with meaning, spaces where people can be real.…

Study the Celtic Wheel of the Year—Samhain, Imbolc, Beltane, Lughnasadh—from lived ancestral tradition. Understand seasonal and lunar cycles. Learn which practices require permission and how to honour what's not yours. Work with sacred tools meaningfully. You'll facilitate ritual with depth and respect.
03/ Master circle structure and group dynamics
Learn the arc that makes circles work—opening, witnessing, integration, closing. Understand how to navigate the talker, the silent one, the resistant one. Know when to intervene and when to trust the process. Bring embodied movement into your circles. You'll confidently hold whatever shows up.

Women are done with surface-level connection. They're investing in depth over distraction. In-person community gatherings over digital exhaustion. Rituals that create real change, not just aesthetic spaces.

Simon - Renowned UK sculptor, Breathwork instructor, sound bath practitioner & Yoga Nidra teacher.
""Of all the trainings I've taken, your Sharing Circle course has been the most profound. The depth, safety and authenticity it allows has changed the way I hold space. The retreats I offer now touch people in a way that simply wouldn't have been possible without your guidance. Thank you, Pip, for teaching not just a method, but a way of being.""

Emma - Tarot Guide and Circle facilitator
I had already run my own circle for almost 2 years, but wanted to expand my offering and deepen my knowledge in ritual.
Pip is great at offering perspective with compassion and professionalism. She showed me how create a more immersive experience, as well as help me with the confidence to hold large groups.
My intention was to double the size of my monthly circle, which has since happened. I’m so pleased to have joined and I would highly recommend it to space holders.
I'm Pip Wylde. Published author on women's pagan rituals of the British Isles and have hosted 60+ international retreats holding ceremonies and rituals.
I’m a Certified Somatic Coach, Certified Ritual Facilitator, Senior Yoga Teacher & Yoga Teacher Trainer & Certified Embodied Healing & Womb Wisdom Practitioner and Certified Sound Healer and I’m living the Celtic pagan practices of my ancestral lineage from my rural Dorset cottage.
I don't teach from books alone. I teach from the land. From the seasons. From the Celtic wheel I turn with each year.
I've published research on the pagan rituals of the British Isles.
I hold ceremony at the cross-quarter days in my witchy cottage.
I know these practices because I live them, not because I read about them.
This training exists because the sacred deserves more than surface-level teaching. And you're ready to go deeper.
My journey into ritual facilitation began in India, where I studied yoga and ritual practices for 5 years, I was moved by the profound reverence of sacred practices in Varanasi, during a powerful Ganga aarti. Since then, I’ve explored healing ceremonies from across the world, and brought these powerful practices back to my retreats in Ibiza, Glastonbury and online spaces. I’m honoured to guide you on your journey to becoming a confident space-holder, to empower you with the tools, wisdom, and confidence to hold your own transformative circles and rituals.
