About this Course
The Wild Moon is a very unique wilderness living experience and an special opportunity to dive deep into our connection with nature and our own sense of being human. For a whole moon cycle (28 days) we leave behind our civilized life and step into simplicity and clan-living, immersed into the natural rhythms of life.
Living in nature within a clan creates an essential necessity for us to learn about hands-on skills like shelter building, fire making, foraging & gathering, animal processing, basketry or hide tanning, as well as many social skills like deep nature connection, circle consciousness, co-parenting and truthspeaking.
At the end of each day journeying together - exploring ourselves in different activities, learning new things, taking time to deepen relationships, going through different processes, playing with the kids, experiencing fulfillment by living based on our primal physical and social needs - we all come together as a circle around the hearth. We’ll connect to each other, eat together, share and listen to our individual inner and outer adventures of the day.
Part of this upcoming wildmoon - aside from the usual focus mentioned before - will be setting up camp and building new shelters on a big island close to Hävla, Sweden. So there will be a possibility to go more into primitive shelter building, as well as fishing, canoeing and overall exploring of the area by land and water.
If you feel called to go on this journey with us, we invite you with all your individual gifts and your unique being to contribute to our adventure.
On our website http://www.wildmoon.eu/ you’ll find more information about the Wild Moon, and how to get the info package which contains details concerning the application process.

Johan (Amadin Noodin – which means Rousing Wind in Ojibwa, and is my native name) I was a part of starting up the Wild Moon program at Teaching Drum in 2007. In 2008 I together with some others brought the Wild Moon program to Europe and have since then been a part of organizing 20+ something Wild Moons, I have lost count. Mostly it has been as a guide in camp but sometimes also as an outside support person, that brings in the food and takes care of things on the outside. I have completed two wilderness guide programs (WGP) at Teaching Drum (2005-2006 and 2012-2013), along with Guardian Intensive trainings at home and on ground – and a lot of other shorter courses and just living in the wild. I have been on the path of realizing my vision of a wilderness clan living together for over fifteen years now. I have learnt many things over the years and am humbled and grateful for this journey. My main occupation at the moment is running a year-long folk school course in Sweden, where I teach old way skills and awarenesses to the students. I also run an organization called Naturliv in Sweden, through which I for example take people on wildlife tours but also do immersion experiences. Also am a part of the newly started Guardian Way Europe project. I live in a collective family house together with my eleven year old daughter, who at age 3 was the youngest ever graduate of the WGP. Through the Wild Moons I can give further what I have been gifted myself and provide a space for close connection with ourselves, each other and nature – which is what I am called to do in this life; being part of us humans finding a balanced way to live together with all our relations.

Alex (Quick) I am grateful that some turns of the seasons ago the path was shown to me that I was searching for so long. And although I did not recognize this path that had and still has so much impact on myself, I followed. The path that opened up consisted amongst others of different wilderness experiences e.g. several Wild Moon Europe experiences, the Family yearlong as well as the guardian training at the Teaching Drum Outdoor School. With time it felt that I came closer to myself, to who I really am, what gifts I carry and what vision I want to bring to life. Since then trust is evolving, trust in the way of life, that everything is just as it is supposed to be. My wish is to provide a space for people to experience their inner and the surrounding nature, to grow and blossom. To be strong, to speak the personal truth and go into processes that need to be gone through. A space to open up and learn from all our teachers who are everywhere around us.

I am called Anja or StoneMountain. My fascination for nature and being outdoors started as a child, learning from my biologist grandfather and mother. They helped me to connect with the trees and the shrubs and herbs and also the wild animals. I kept that fire, always wanting to learn more about them until this day. Now it‘s been about ten years ago that I participated in my first wilderness weekend course, when I knew this is a path to be followed. Since then I completed a 4-year long wilderness pedagogy training in 2016 and finished my bachelor‘s degree in environmental education. Throughout that time I worked at summer camps for children and families each year. Finally I went to the Teaching Drum Outdoor school, where I did the Wilderness Guide Program 2019/20. During this program I also participated in the Guardian training there, which led me to be part of the Guardian Way Europe project. Exploring how people can live together in community again, has become part of my quest and the wish to make this learning process possible for others. Living in a small house community, taught me a lot about it on a daily basis. Something I also really love with people coming together, is to find new songs and bring them to the circle, celebrating the joy of life. Therefore I am truly honored to be guiding this upcoming wildmoon and being able to share the gifts of this experience with more people.

During my wilderness journey that started in 2013, I received the name 'Rambling Wild Rose' (while still also carrying my birthname Elisabeth). My main focus with all of what I'm doing is to create and hold safe spaces for myself and others so that we can find our way back to our true selves, and follow our wild and untamed hearts, fully living our gifts. I completed a 4-year wilderness pedagogy training in 2016, participated in all kinds of other wilderness courses and experiences in Austria, Germany and the US and in 2019 was part of the 2 month long Guardian Intensive on the ground training at Teaching Drum Outdoor School, after having done almost all of the at home trainings. This lead me to also translating the book on the Guardian "Like A Shadow" by Tamarack Song into German, as well as initiating and running the Guardian Way Europe project. I also integrate the wilderness lifestyle as well as different methodologies for nature-connection into my life and my seminars, coaching-programs and other offers. They all aim towards living a live closely connected to our inner voice and guidance and finding a way to combine that with today's challenges and technology. I am currently also writing a book on my experiences in the wilderness and how we can use this knowledge in our everyday work and live both as individuals and working in teams. All of my play also flows into the Wildliving Project, which encompasses the vision of creating a space and a culture to remember our role in healthy balance with all the beings around us, strengthening our relations. I am humbled each day of how many gifts there are around us, and how much we can still learn from everyone that crosses our path.

About the Organizer
Wild Moon Europe
"The best way to understand how it feels and what it takes to live out in the woods is to do it - then it will come alive for you like it never could with reading a book or learning a skill outside of the context - that is what we invite you to experience with us!"
With Wild Moon we offer you a very unique wilderness living experience: We give you the opportunity to be immersed in nature for a whole moon (about 28 days) without interruption, and you will get a taste of how it feels and what it takes to live in a clan within the natural rhythms of existence.
Besides different traditional skills, both soft and hard, you will be able to learn about environmental and nature protection and sustainable development within the greater context- through literally living it. Together we want to dive into a living experience based on respect and tolerance for all beings.
Living in Nature, surviving and thriving, requires that you know what the land provides for you, for example in terms of food, shelter, warmth and clothing. It also requires that you know how to use, proceed or take care of these gifts of the earth. The following skills are examples of what we offer to make them practically available: firemaking by friction, butchering, hide tanning and making buckskin clothes, shelterbuilding, gathering wild edibles & fishing, primitive cooking and different crafts like basket- and bowlmaking.
It is also essential for fully living with nature based on hunter-gatherer-cultures, that we function socially as a circle. Conflicts and struggles may arise and we need our social skills and possibly learn new ones to get back to balance. In an indigenous clan, this would be embedded in the culture and taught from childhood on, since it would be crucial for the well-being and survial of the whole clan. For us, who grew up in a world, where there is less primary need for a functioning community, this is something we might need to practice when we find ourselfes in a setting where we really depend on eachother - both a challenge and a wonderful gift!
We will be using different tools to get to a place where we can relate to each other and nature with honor and respect. Amongst others, these are different kinds of communicational skills, that guide us to express our thoughts and feelings in a peaceful way. They are used during work and play as well as in the setting of talking circles. Just as important as how we speak, is the skill to deeply listen and acknowledge. Another part of is to get down to the core of the feelings that arise, and take responsibility for these feelings by owning them, as well as doing inner child work and coming to a place of circle-consciousness and awareness.
In some Wild Moons we'll be honored to have children living with us and one focus will be on co-parenting and creating a children’s culture. Children and families are especially welcome since they bring a beautiful quality to the experience. They bring different challenges as well, which is a great opportunity for all adults to grow and mature, since we'll be one big family during the experience. Nevertheless there will be Wild Moons happening without children and different focusses.
Since what we provide is not a workshop but a living experience, it will be up to YOU and your own motivation and passions how much and what you will gain during the moon in terms of the social and practical skills.
Even though Wild Moons can seem to be a whole different and separate world, they are created in a way that we can integrate the experiences, gifts and insights into our everyday life.
In our role as a guide, we function as a bridge over the gap between the modern-civilized and the old ways. We are a group of different people, from different countries, passionate about different aspects of wilderness and clan living, healing and natural craftwork and living skills. We have years of experience in these different fields and a passion for sharing these skills and ways to get back to peace and our unique natural selves. Our common thread is that we all have spent some time living simply in the wilderness in the Northwoods at Teaching Drum Outdoor School (teachingdrum.org).
Welcome to the Circle, within the Hoop of Life! See you in the Woods!
