"The word transgress comes from the Latin word transgressus or transgredi and means to step (trans) across (gredi), to go beyond or to cross imposed limits. It is interesting that this act of stepping away from the well-worn path has become so strongly associated with morality and is often defined as wrongdoing, sin, offense, and violation. We have taken transgression—the stepping beyond and across—and equated it with evil. This understanding of transgression as evil is not coincidental, since hierarchical systems of power-over rely heavily upon blind obedience, judgment, and fear.
They need us to stay within the lines, to comply. They need us to stay obedient.
We have often equated disobedience with evil. But they are not the same thing."

What is the Disobedience School?
The Disobedience School is a community devoted to gathering in kinship and unlearning ways of being that harm us and remembering ways of being and knowing that bring us into wild belonging. We learn ways of being and knowing that usher us out of the relentless pressure to tame our lives into compliance to the status quo enraptured by the fantasy of improvement, into an ecological vision of our wild lives. Rooted in depth psychology, shamanic perspectives, archetypal sensibilities, and ecological spirituality, we befriend our wild lives as tender wild creatures given to our stewardship. We equip ourselves to practice disobedience as we move deeper and deeper into our belonging and sovereignty.
This is a monthly membership circle that you can join anytime and cancel at any time.
What's involved?
Weekly Circles
Once a week, we gather for a 30 minute circle. This time is meant as a touchstone during the week. In this circle we have an opportunity to root in the deep wild psyche, remember ourselves at the center of our own circles, and strengthen our courage in community.
Montly Gatherings
Once a month, we gather (via Zoom) for a 90 minute circle. Weaving story, teaching, reflections, depth practices, and discussion, these circles offer us a time to listen deeply, connect with kindred folks, and strengthen our courage. We encourage each other as we walk out of blink obedience and into deeper knowing and sovereignty.
Reflections & Resources
As a member of the Disobedience School, you will receive related reflections, resources, and bonus teaching videos, mini-courses, and podcast episodes.

"We have tried to put ourselves into the forms of the world, but we are not contained there, beautiful even as they are. We constantly spill over the borderlines and boundaries, and while in the early years of our awakening we lamented, now we are contented to be wandering bougainvillea. Let us no longer try to be unfree. Yes we are free! Something has broken loose and we are finally free to pour out this immensity."
