Being an empathic, intuitive, only child raised on a small farm in upstate New York provided much time and opportunity to indulge in the delight, exploration and connection to that which is termed “Nature”, both within and without. It is upon this foundation of awe, respect and the openness of her 5 year old self that she now builds her adult learning and experiences. At the age of 30, her childhood love and connection with animals blossomed when Dina was inspired to attend Gaston College and earned a degree in Veterinary Medical Technology.  During her 15+ year career as a Veterinary Technician, including serving in upper management, Dina discovered a powerful desire/ability to provide more than medical support to hospitalized pets and to serve clients in a deeper way. The desire to balance the immediacy/harshness of emergency medicine with the softness of intuitive healing led her to attain the training to become a Reiki Practitioner which she used at the clinic, Hospice and continues to use often in her medicine work.

In 2015, Dina traveled to answered the “call” of Mama Africa and her life was illuminated and blessed in such a way that it reverberates through every aspect of her life including her medicine work and Rastafari tradition. The discovery of the inextinguishable light of Creation in the worst of circumstances, her desire to live, love and do healing work in Community and to live a life of inclusion and harmony with the most humble of us was birthed by living it at Botshabelo Orphanage and School. The medicine of dancing the Fire Dance in South Africa  created a powerful connection to Creation, Ancestors and healing that Dina accesses as an Earth Spirit Medicine Practitioner and Ceremonialist. Her education and medicine work calls upon the Old Ways– the traditions and wisdom of many indigenous practices brought forward into this time and place for the purpose of healing. Her passions are working to create and support Community, guiding and teaching Young People (The PathFinders), the Divine Feminine/Masculine and learning indigenous traditions and wisdoms to discover similarities while delighting in the spice of the differences. She most often works with plant medicine (Tulsi and Cacao), Earth Spirits, shamanic/intuitive guidance, medicine wheel, and Reiki.

Lady Raven, who also styles herself “The Wyld Witch” has spent most of her life searching and discovering many avenues that lead to true spirituality! She approaches her practice with the belief that there are many different paths and no two journeys are the same. After studying elements of paganism, shamanism, vodun, judaism, christianity, Candomblé and Stregheria, she has learned that the path to the divine is as unique as each one of us.  Raven has been a Witch for over 20 years, a spiritual herbalist for more than 15 years and a High Priestess for more than 10.

Raven holds that spirituality is not religion, but instead is about how we relate to the world around us.  It is a way of asking and answering deep questions like “How do we find our place? Our peace? Our mission?” She believes that that is a crucial part of finding out why we are here and where we are going.

Raven offers readings in Tarot, Oracle cards, and traditional bone/crystal casting to help her clients get clarity and guidance on their paths.

Raven’s study of Shamanism has led her to a deeper understanding of how our energy is interconnected with everything around us, and that we received guidance from our animal totems, spirit guides and ancestors.  In this path, Raven has learned to work with personal energy in a new way, to help her clients remove unhealthy cords, complete ancestor clearing ceremonies, remove attachments and negative constructs and Soul Retrieval. Raven works to help her clients connect with their spirit guardians so that they too can join in and be part of the client’s inner growth!

“I have helped many find their own path into the divine.  I have used my gifts of empathy and mediumship to guide those that are truly interested in discovering their own best selves.  As a Third Degree High Priestess, Spiritual Herbalist and ordained minister, I can help you find the unique path that will connect you with your higher and best self!” — Lady Raven

Sharon’s compassionate, empathetic and loving nature is fueled by a very genuine desire to be of service. She was given the spirit name Raven Song in the Earth Medicine Tradition. 

Raised in a small village in upstate NY, she immersed herself in the woodlands that surrounded her. She loved to spend time with animals and wildlife; communing with nature was very natural to her. Sharon’s childhood was richly blessed with opportunities to talk to and help injured animals, playing with plants, stones and water, and talking with Spirit.

After high school, Sharon joined the US Navy and requested to be stationed in Iceland. This proved to be a stroke of destiny, for as soon as she arrived she realized Iceland was the home of her heart, the place where she needed to be.

After the military she returned to the land of her birth; however it wasn’t long before she moved back to Iceland where she got married, raised her family, finished her BSc and MBA whilst working fulltime as a Quality and Safety Manager for an airline. 

Sharon’s drive to succeed and desire to serve resulted in an increasing array of responsibilities, many of these related to the welfare of the people in the company and the environment. She felt she couldn’t say no, so she pushed, persevered, and accomplished every task until Spirit intervened.

Her “breakthrough” brought her a great blessing: it returned her to the pathway of her childhood– the path she walks today. Sharon’s Medicine path is the culmination of her genuine caring nature and love for people, and her love and respect for animals and the natural environment. These are the focal points of her Medicine, which she uses to help, balance, and heal. 

Sharon walks her Medicine path her own way, seeking truth and clarity for herself and helping others be their best. Working with others she brings Earth Healing, participates in Fire Dances, both as a dancer and crew, and is very aware that now is the time for her message to be realized “be the Beacon”.

She is an excellent mentor and amusing to sit with in circle. 

She is here serving and saying “yes” for you.

Tinna Sverrisdóttir works as a medicine woman and an artist. Tinna started her spiritual journey quite young and has been seeking inspiration & guidance since she was 15 years old. She studied Yoga Of Sound And Chocolate at The Mystical Yoga Farm at Lake Atitlan where her emphasis was on sound healing & how to work with the Cacao plant in a sacred way as medicine through ceremony. In 2019 Tinna graduated as a medicine woman from the Shamanic Arts Immersion // Otter Dance School of Earth Medicine, taught by Robbie Warren. Tinna was granted the honour to continue working with Robbie as an assistant and a mentor for the Earth Medicine School in Iceland.

Tinna studied acting at the Iceland University of the Arts, and graduated in 2012. She has been teaching children acting for the last 7 years & has worked in several projects both on stage & in television and movies. She is also a professional musician and has toured the world playing at different festivals & venues. Music and expression are close to her heart, and she uses sound and vibration extensively in her work. Her voice is her main instrument, but Tinna also plays the drum, crystal bowl, and gong.  

Tinna received the medicine name “Laughing heart” in 2019 from Robbie Warren which suits her very well since she is light hearted empath and has a special ability to see the humour and the beauty in all things. Tinna’s emphasis in her work is on self love and self acceptance. She works in a very creative way where she weaves together her acting background with shamanism, sound healing & intuitive work.

Tinna is the founder & owner of Andagift Inspire // Cacao temple in Reykjavík, Iceland. There she holds cacao ceremonies, wild women empowerment courses, shamanic workshops, Kirtans & retreats both in Iceland & abroad. The seed of Andagift was born in Guatemala in 2017 when Tinna felt a deep calling to work with the sacred spirit of the cacao plant. 

Tinna has a dream to build a society where all humans feel free to express their uniqueness in an authentic & creative way so we may celebrate ourselves better and from there build a stronger ground to celebrate the relation of all things. Her truth is that with more love & awareness we have the ability to meet fear, comparison, jealousy, feeling of lack, hatred and violence in a more peaceful way.

“We all have the ability to feel & from there we heal. So let’s start with getting to know ourselves before we judge ourselves or try to be someone else”.

Brandy Winn is an apprentice to Robbie Warren Hill, Otter Woman Standing and Healer and Earth Medicine Ceremonialist.  Her love for education and learning allowed her to pursue her MBA, this journey opened her to the world of travel.  Her first traveling experience to China allowed Brandy to have a life-altering experience on one of the world’s seven wonders, the Great Wall of China.  It was on this historical forte that the seed of her life’s purpose was planted and her pursuit of spirituality began.

After successful careers in Corporate America, Brandy made the decision to begin her path of service by joining the nonprofit workforce.  This difficult leap lead her to another life-altering experience in a small village in Burundi Africa, Brandy began the adventure of remembering her divine essence and discovered her soul’s purpose to be of service to Mother Earth and Humanity.

Upon her return stateside, the reshaping of Brandy’s Life began.   It is during this transformational time she became a student of the The Native American Traditions, sometimes called, the Red Road and Robbie Warren.  In addition to becoming a student,  Brandy also began sharing her skillset with the Otter Dance communty.

As passionate steward and member of the Otter Dance community, Brandy Winn has been able to weave together her love of education, learning, travel, and experiences from her past corporate career to propel her forward on her path of service. Brandy’s introduction to Otter Dance was through a course called, Core Shamanism. During this 6-month course is when all her Educational Degrees, Corporate Vocations, and Spiritual Awakening came together in perfection. After this course, she truly understood her life’s purpose and how to express it.

Since then, Brandy has served the Otter Dance Community and The Otter Dance School of Earth Medicine in a variety of ways and roles. She is humbled, honored, and grateful to serve as a teacher. She knows first-hand the impact of participating in the School’s offerings changed the trajectory of her life, and it is her goal to support other students on their journey as they join the Otter Dance School of Earth Medicine family and dive into their own spiritual exploration.

Brandy’s ability to connect with Spirit and People allows her to guide others in remembering their own truth and empowering others through ceremonies, private sessions, and more to assist each of them to weave the life that is divinely theirs and of service all that is.
