Knowing In Nature is underpinned by Indigenous ways of being & knowing facilitating nature-based activities for sharing and learning together. Utilizing Nature as our “Classroom” or as my preference of saying “our Sharing place!”
Experiential learning and discovery are integral in recognizing and developing an awareness of our relationship to the environment and cultivating a relational intelligence, with the land, the animals, and plant life and with the living spirit of life that threads all together in Kinship.
All people of all capabilities are welcome! We acknowledge all are able to both share and learn and nature does not discriminate nor limit possibilities!
At K.I.N our intent is to support in inspiring respect for life and enhancing health within communities.

Cultural Identities Yarning Cirles (workshop)
Aimed at developing awareness through dialogue and interactive processes. The CIYC workshop offers participants the opportunity to expand the thresholds of current thinking and relating in regards to Indigenous and non Indigenous (Australia). The workshop walks each group through relevant history to the present moment, through kinship awareness and deep ecology awareness through an indigenous lens in a personalised and enriching manner. Participants are supported in reconciling the differences that seem to keep the population separate as a nation and inhibit free flowing authentic connections. This a five hour workshop held in Nature for groups and organisations to develop both professionally and personally.
