Julie’s workshops create time for curiosity, mindfulness, respect and a deeper appreciation for the wisdom of nature. They are shaped by conversation rather than sold as a one-size-fits-all package.
Tell Julie what draws you to the workshop, who would attend and what you hope to learn. She will confirm whether the request is suitable and, if it is, work through the format, timing and practical details with you.
The website does not publish fixed dates, group sizes or prices because those details depend on the enquiry. Nothing is booked until the scope, cost, location and inclusions have been confirmed in writing.
Each workshop is shaped by conversation — dates and remaining details are confirmed through your enquiry.
Slow down and connect with the earth through the art of weaving. This interactive workshop acknowledges the Aboriginal cultural tradition of sitting together, yarning, creating and deeply listening to one another. Using the contemporary fibre of raffia, participants are guided through a hands-on weaving experience that creates space for connection, conversation and learning.
A creative workshop exploring the use of ochre — an age-old natural pigment — through a contemporary art practice. Participants will learn about ochre, its cultural significance and its role in Indigenous traditions, before grinding, mixing and painting with a variety of ochre colours. You will then create your own artwork on canvas, reflecting your connection to and innerstanding of culture and country.
A culturally grounded, hands-on workshop where participants create their own mala bead / Wawu Wawu String while learning simple breathing practices to support calm, focus and emotional balance. Each string is created with intention, with beads representing different breathing styles, giving participants a practical wellbeing tool they can continue to use in everyday life.
Wayapa Wuurrk is a culturally grounded wellbeing practice combining gentle movement, breath, storytelling and connection to the elements. Participants are guided through a simple movement sequence while exploring the relationship between personal wellbeing, connection and caring for country. It offers practical tools to support relaxation, focus and emotional balance.
From country to creation
Designed for organisations, community groups, ranger programs, women’s groups, youth programs and cultural programs across Cape York. This hands-on workshop recognises the bush medicine knowledge that already exists within communities and creates space to share, celebrate and apply that knowledge. Participants explore contemporary methods for transforming local medicinal plants into infused oils and finished balms, including making, packaging and preparing their own product to take home.
This program supports participants to explore Aboriginal perspectives on wellbeing, connection to country and respectful relationships. Through storytelling, yarning, movement, mindfulness, nature-based activities, creative expression and cultural knowledge sharing, participants are encouraged to slow down, observe, listen and reflect. The program creates space to strengthen connection with self, others and the natural world.
Say whether you are enquiring as an individual, family, community group, school, workplace or organisation. Julie can then confirm suitability without assumptions.
Share the area of learning, connection or reflection you are interested in, along with any outcomes your group needs to understand before proceeding.
Include preferred dates, participant numbers, general location, transport questions and any access, mobility or sensory needs.
Cultural learning is not treated as generic entertainment. What can be shared, where it can be shared and how the gathering should proceed remain part of Julie’s responsibility and conversation with you.
Workshops are educational, cultural and nature-based. They are not medical, psychological or other professional health services.
