What we have to say is so valuable and so important. Our loving whispers and our angry ROAR! We will free our voice so that the world can hear us.
And this is just a tip from the iceberg ...
"I no longer feel the same after my inner journey to Avalon. After the initiation into the Path of the Priestess.
Something big has happened. Something has been transformed. Something has been remembered. Remembered who I am. Remembered what I'm coming to do here. Old knowledge has come to life. Knowing deeply. I came home. A lot of old burden of lives fell away from me. I truly died and was born again through this deep inner journey and all the profound rituals in this sacred old place in Avalon.
I am now back in the Netherlands. Back to work.
It looks like I'm doing the same thing but nothing is the same anymore.
I no longer fit in old structures., never did, but now it certainly does not fit me anymore. I can no longer participate in the illusion, in the paved paths. In the box of the mind. In a fear-based life.
The fear seems to have disappeared for now.
The fear that others think of me. The fear of judgment and rejection. The fear of not belonging. The fear of shortage ...
But above all the fear of my own strength.
That fear was the greatest.
Wow what a powerful awakening"
Marianne van den Haak
The training
During the training we will guide you through your personal process to discover and awaken the priestess within yourself; so that you can walk your sacred path and do what you came to eath for.
For thousands of years, women have been walking this Path of the Priestess in sisterhood. It is a path full of authenticity, dedication, strength, vulnerability, healing depth and growth. Through the dark and the light. We will pass through the gates of initiation into Priestesshood.
It is incredibly beautiful, but not always easy. During the training, you will be supported by close sisterhood and professional guidance.
The training is based on practical experience, knowledge and personal development. We use a mix of different techniques, ceremonies, therapies, dance, bodywork and trance. We perform the exercises in groups and you will also receive exercises for at home, so that you will fully experience everything you learn and share. This method will offer you insight into the depth of your process and, above all, into the wisdom that you carry with you.
During the training, we will dance a lot, because in dance your most sincere self can be expressed. You will be able to throw off your masks and come to who you really are under the veils of fear and judgment.

"Becoming a Priestess ...
..is a journey of remembering and courage.
Remember that everything is already in you.
As I marched the path that took me into the depths of my being.
I was allowed to see, know, accept and embrace who I am.
As I walked through that inner forest, I felt my shadows, scared but willing I faced what needed to be healed and placed in the light.
It was hard to break those invisible chains that kept me small.
but I did not have to do this alone, those women who were there to held space for me believed in me.
I discovered Sisterhood.
It is good and real.
I came back through rituals, singing, dance, connection, immersed in ancient wisdom.
Initiated as a priestess.
A woman of inner knowing. At home in itself. Rooted in Mother Earth and connected to life. "

This is a journey for the brave woman who is ready to look at herself at a deep level.
"Dear women ... ... who might consider following the path of the priestess, I followed the path of the priestess in 2016 and I can honestly say that it has changed my life in a very positive way!
On the one hand, it is a very personal path to deep layers in your own soul and in the motivation of life. It's about learning how to be thankful and about learning how to take charge of your own life. It is about no more nonsense, no more excuses and become your most powerful self without shame or embarrassment!
It's about believing that everything that makes you who you are is beautiful and has the right to exist. All your weaknesses, fears and deficiencies are just as welcome. as your beauty and your strength. It is about believing that these things make you who you are and are part of this wonderful unique and authentic person that you are.
Another major part of this path is the creation of this deep and empowering connection with all these beautiful women. Sisterhood! It is about breaking free from the competition that we women sometimes feel against each other. You learn to love each other without judgment and support each other in becoming the beautiful and powerful woman that we are all!
Margo and Emelie create a safe and warm environment where everything they offer is an invitation and you have the freedom to take every step in your own time. They believe that everyone must walk a unique path and that it is all about learning how to be true to yourself
I would really recommend the path of the priestess to every lady and everyone who chooses to take this path so much love and pleasure on this wonderful journey! "
