Upcoming Circles, Groups, and Workshops
We come together to be in community, learn from each other, and receive guidance from experienced facilitators.
Mamas Circles
Circles start August 26, October 5, and November 30
Mamas Circles and our special Mamas Circle for newly 2nd & 3rd time moms are open, supportive communities for moms and pre-crawling babies. We talk about changing identities, relationships, and how to get through the day (and night) with little ones. A place to know you're not in this alone.

Women's Weekend - Pottery & Yoga Retreat
September 10-13, 2026
Join us for a restorative weekend of pottery, yoga, nature, nourishing food, music, and meaningful connection. We'll gather at the historic Claymont Mansion, just 90 minutes from DC, surrounded by 360 acres of forests, pastures, streams, and walking trails.
Pottery: Over the course of three daily workshops, you will learn to harvest wild clay, hand build your own vessels and participate in an outdoor wood fire. Novice and experienced potters welcome.
Yoga: Each morning we will gather for an all-levels yoga class to wake our bodies, set a daily intention, and move and breathe together.
Community: Come with a friend, bring a sister, or arrive on your own. We look forward to welcoming you all into our community for the weekend.
We'll share delicious vegetarian meals and gather in the evenings for music, bonfires and stargazing. There will also be ample free time to explore nature trails, indulge in the sauna house and spring-fed cool plunge, or simply take time to rest and restore.

Motherhood: Redefined
Program starts in October
We know you feel overwhelmed. No matter how much you do, it doesn't feel like enough. You and your burnout are invisible to the world, where there’s too much judgement and not enough connection. Let’s change that. In this community we value interdependence over independence. Join us to redefine motherhood for yourself and your family in a welcoming and inclusive space. We will be real, creative, and messy as we gather to explore what motherhood means to us.

Men with Babies
Groups start September 25 and November 6
The Men With Babies group is an opportunity for fathers (including all male-identified parents) to get together and discuss the ups and downs of caring for a baby between birth and one year old. We’ll share questions and suggestions, reflect on our changing perspectives on work, home, and relationships, and hang out with our adorable babies in the company of men doing the same.

Pregnancy Circle
Circle starts September 28
Pregnancy circle is a place to connect with others as you navigate your changing body, birth options, and prepare for life with a new baby. You'll get to build your village (even before your baby is born!) and have consistent, experienced support during time of uncertainty and constant change. The circle is strengthened by diversity, openness, vulnerability and sharing and is an inclusive community for parents and families of all kinds.

Present Parents: Showing up for Our Kids and Ourselves
Group starts October 2
In the Present Parents Group, we come together to support each other in deliberately practicing being present—mentally, interpersonally, and emotionally present. We can learn to pay attention to ourselves and our children in a whole new way, leading to a kind of parenting that feels empowered and responsive instead of stuck and shut down. Over eight weeks, we'll shift into a new approach to family life, in which we slow down, observe what's happening inside us, and respond with resilience to the pressures of our homes and lives. Side by side with other parents who are committed to the same shift!
