Workshops
Fin and Cath have combined their skills, knowledge and wisdom with their love for cacao, to create journeys of inner-transformation and self-discovery. With their touch of alchemy they guide you on a journey using movement, music, shamanic journeying, breath-work and ritual.
Fin
Fin Walker bridges movement and healing through body psychotherapy, somatic practices, and conscious coaching. Her work explores the deep relationship between past experiences and present-moment awareness, using the thinking, breathing, moving body as a pathway to transformation. Drawing from years of somatic study, including Feldenkrais, Alexander Technique, Body-Mind Centering, Contact Improvisation, Skinner Release, yoga, qi gong, and Vipassana meditation, Fin has developed an improvisation-based approach that fosters authentic self-connection and embodied presence.
Cath
Cath Walker’s healing path began with holotropic breathwork, sparking a lifelong quest for deeper understanding. Her journey has taken her through spiritual retreats in Australia, sacred ceremonies with the Hopi, sweat lodges in the Mexican desert, ashram life in India, and silent Vipassana retreats across the globe. In the rainforests of Chiapas, Mexico, she encountered ceremonial cacao, a sacred plant medicine that now lies at the heart of her work.

"Thank you so much for running the Cacao Workshop, it was truly a wonderful enlightening experience. I loved everything about it, from the moment I walked in to the calm gentle space, the enriching somatic movement, the pranayama, the visualisation journey opening a pathway to my younger self and drinking the beautiful cacao. Such a special healing day that has stayed with me."

"My experience at the Chakra Workshop with Cath and Fin was truly special. The space they created felt calm, safe, and deeply nurturing, it allowed me to relax and connect with myself in a way I hadn’t for a long time.The details, structure, music, and movement were all so thoughtfully curated, every element flowed seamlessly and contributed to a sense of grounding and balance. Cath and Fin guided the experience with such presence and care, creating an atmosphere that felt both sacred and welcoming.I’ve also had the opportunity to work privately with both Cath and Fin together, and I can honestly say it was one of the most beautiful and memorable days of my life. The energy, compassion, and intuitive guidance they bring is truly unique, a perfect balance of calm, wisdom, and warmth"
