What past students are saying:
"It’s hard to beat a live ancestral skills gathering but Woniya’s virtual gathering is a way of taking in new information slowly and implementing things right away in real life. Endless veins of expansion in all her tracks, accessible to anyone in any lifestyle, all that’s required is care for our natural world. Woniya is wildly knowledgeable, passionate, and inspiring…and just perfectly wild." Jennifer Medley
"It is such an incredible wealth of information. Woniya's level of knowledge and skill in so many subjects are incredible. She is also an awesome teacher, really engaging with her students, motivating, and super kind. The class structure is set up so well that it gives you a good understanding on a subject, you go out and try it yourself, and then you're also provided with resources to help you dive deeper if you want. Super effective, and I feel kind of amazed and proud at all of the things I know how to do now, and I've just scratched the surface! I also love that she has created an online community to connect with and share with other like-minded people all over the world, even after the gathering is over. 10/10 recommend, totally loving it!" Andrea McFarland
"I've never been a huge fan of learning online, let alone learning ancestral skills over the internet; however, Woniya's Buskin Revolution Online Gathering (BROG) has changed that. Given that I live at the bottom of the planet, getting to participate in training like this can be expensive, not to mention the flights! I found Woniya to be incredibly responsive and generous with her time in answering my questions, and the course material was clear and concise and highlighted things I need to develop my knowledge and abilities in."
