“We are connected to nature. We are part of creation just as any animal or plant or river or tree. Yet we are the only ones who spend our lives trying to disconnect. Remember where you come from and let yourself feel the wildness and the beauty of creation.” Robbie Warren, Otter Woman Standing

Otter Dance is dedicated to the Spiritual Path of Earth Medicine, Animism, and relational connection with all of creation. We honor the Spirit in all things.
EVERYTHING is sacred from the largest mountain to the smallest plant and animal. A lesson can be found in all things and experiences and everything has a purpose. To sum up Earth Medicine; it is about HONOR, LOVE, and RESPECT. It is being in touch with oneself and everything around you. It is knowing and understanding that you are part of everything, and everything is a part of you. Our Elders hold the answers, and our children hold the future. We are all One.
We believe in supported autonomy. These tools, practices, and principles will empower you to be fully engaged in your own life, to deepen your connection to your divine path. Modern animism and shamanism reconnect us to our ancestral lineages with the resources for the integration of your individual experiences.
Our purpose is to support you on your own path with these resources and opportunities for the Modern Animist. Whether you are just beginning your exploration or you are a seasoned practitioner of animistic and shamanistic practices, we support your personal growth and connection.
