Frequently Asked Questions.
What is Ancient Womb?
Ancient Womb is a vessel for rebirth, transformation, and return.
Through breath, movement, sound, touch, Ayurveda, and deep listening, this work supports the many ways you may be ready to change, soften, strengthen, and reconnect with yourself.
It is a space to transform and transcend old patterns while allowing the body to lead the way. Ancient Womb is not about fixing you. It is about creating the conditions for what is ready to be born through you.
What is The Experience?
The Experience is a one-on-one session designed to reconnect you with your body, breath, and inner rhythm.
Each session may include breathwork, movement, sound, intuitive touch, guided awareness, stillness, or conversation. The work is responsive, meaning it follows what your body and nervous system need that day.
What is The Deepening Mentorship?
The Deepening Mentorship is ongoing support for those ready to build a deeper relationship with themselves and their body.
Through regular sessions, we work with patterns, rhythms, body awareness, emotional landscape, and personal intentions. This container supports integration, clarity, accountability, and embodied transformation over time.
What is the difference between a class, a session, and mentorship?
A class is a shared group experience.
A session is one-on-one support created around what your body needs that day.
A mentorship is ongoing guidance for deeper integration and transformation.
Do I need experience before booking?
No. You do not need previous experience with breathwork, yoga, movement, sound, bodywork, or embodiment practices.
You can come exactly as you are. Each session is guided at your pace and adapted to your comfort level.
How do I know which offering is right for me?
Choose The Experience for a single session to reconnect, reset, or explore the work.
Choose The Deepening Mentorship for ongoing support, deeper integration, and long-term transformation.
Choose Classes or Retreats if you feel called to practice in a shared group setting.
What happens during a session?
Each session begins with a simple check-in. From there, the work may include breath, movement, sound, guided awareness, intuitive bodywork, stillness, or conversation.
You are always welcome to ask questions, pause, rest, adjust, or redirect the session at any time.
Is this work trauma-informed?
Ancient Womb is held with sensitivity to the nervous system, consent, pacing, and choice.
This work is not about pushing through or forcing release. You are always allowed to pause, rest, ask questions, change direction, or stop at any time.
Is this therapy?
No. Ancient Womb is not therapy, counseling, psychotherapy, medical treatment, or mental health care.
I am not a licensed therapist, counselor, psychologist, or medical provider. Sessions are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or replace care from a licensed medical or mental health professional.
Is touch included?
Touch may be included in some sessions, but only with your clear consent.
All touch is respectful, professional, and fully clothed unless otherwise clearly stated for a specific bodywork offering. You can say yes, no, pause, adjust, or change your mind at any time.
Are there times when breathwork may not be recommended?
Yes. Certain forms of breathwork may not be appropriate for everyone.
Please let me know before your session if you are pregnant, have a heart condition, high blood pressure, epilepsy, recent surgery, severe asthma, a history of panic attacks, or any condition that may be affected by breath-based practices.
Sessions can always be modified.
Can I book if I’m pregnant, injured, or have a medical condition?
Please let me know before your session if you are pregnant, recovering from injury, experiencing chronic pain, or managing a medical condition.
You are also encouraged to consult your healthcare provider before beginning any new body-based, breath, movement, or wellness practice.
Do you work with children or teens?
Children and teens may be supported on a case-by-case basis with parent or guardian consent.
Sessions are adapted to the age, comfort, and needs of the child.
How long are sessions?
The Experience is typically 60–75 minutes.
The Deepening Mentorship includes regular 60-75 minute sessions.
Classes and retreats vary in length and will be listed clearly when offered.
Where do sessions take place?
Sessions are offered in person at the studio. Some offerings may also be available online depending on the type of support needed.
Location details are shared when your session is confirmed.
What should I wear or bring?
Wear comfortable clothing that allows you to breathe and move freely.
You may bring water and a journal if you’d like. There is nothing you need to prepare or perform.
What happens after my session?
After a session, you may feel grounded, open, emotional, relaxed, tender, clear, or more connected to yourself.
The work may continue to unfold afterward. Give yourself space when possible, drink water, move gently, journal, or rest.
Do you offer private groups, retreats, or events?
Yes. Ancient Womb offers private sessions, group classes, retreat support, and custom experiences for communities, organizations, and special events.
Each experience is created around the needs of the group.
