What You Will Learn

Learn how to create meaningful and empowering ceremonies to celebrate every stage of our feminine journey.
Cultivate Sisterhood as Medicine

LEARN AKAN CULTURE AND AKOM SPIRITUALITY
Understand the Akan concept of Nyame (God) and the Universe plus the various attributes of Nyame and the layers of the spirit world which intertwine with the physical plane of existence since the inception of humanity.
