Our Mission

At Soma Shakti we reawaken the ancient feminine wisdom that lives in the body. We guide women home to their intuitive knowing, cyclical power, and the sacred lineage of birth, nourishment, ritual, and remembrance.

Through teachings, trainings, and embodied community, we braid Ayurveda, womb‑wisdom, earth medicine, ancestral midwifery, and spiritual practice into a living path of sovereignty, devotion, and embodied leadership.

This is not a medical certification — it is an initiation into holding mothers through deep transformation with reverence, presence, and skill.

Students Words

The course with Soma Shakti has been incredible. Not only did I gather so much profound, gentle, natural knowledge, it was delivered by true embodied teachers. With each class depicting not just a general back and fourth lecture, but a sacred ceremony, an exchange, where we would complete our practice together, meditate together and then learn together through transmission.  Even the teachings felt like they were being taught beyond the intellectual level, like something was being reawakened within me. Ancient codes within my womb and heart rejoicing at my mind remembering”

“After reading the course description, I knew this was the training for me. Every class session was beautiful, filled with heart and truth. The Ayurvedic wisdom and the knowledge and experience of our teacher Dani and many other guest teachers. The self paced learning made it very achievable and allowed space to reflect, revisit and digest. The learning platform was easy to use, engaging and created a sense of community. The skills and knowledge learned on this training will last me a lifetime and for generations to come as I share and practice what I have learnt. The ripple effect of tending to these new mamas with my training, leaves a lasting and profound effect on them and their children. Working as a Ayurvedic postpartum doula is so rewarding and I can’t rate this training with Soma-shakti highly enough.”

”To me the sign of a good training, is one where not only do you gain the skills and knowledge to implement the content but one where you also have been transformed through the teachings.”

”The Soma Shakti Traditional Midwifery retreat was honestly life changing. It propelled me into the practical world of birth work and gave me the confidence to finally offer my services to the community. I now am able to walk with women through birth and love providing ritual and ceremony for birth — which was all learnt on the retreat. Invaluable and deep learning, I would go every year if I could”

”This has most definitely occurred with soma shakti, the start of this course almost instantly sparked my passionate pre conception journey + inspired me for what is possible for my future postpartum journey. ”

”Deeper trust is being forged between my mind and my bodies ability as a result of the teachings.”

”I feel honoured to be able to spend my “work” in devotion to the feminine because of soma shakti.”

”A fire has been stoked in my heart and I am filled with excitement to let the waves of creation flow from this inspiration.”
