Baba Yaga speaks to us in many ways. She is not only a witch, but also an initiator and guide of souls. During the workshops, you will be able to get to know selected aspects of this mysterious figure, delve into her meanings and areas of activity as one of the most powerful mythological witches. Then each person who takes part in the workshop will find out who Baba Yaga is for them. When she appeared in a given life and how she can help. Joint discussion and work on her character will lead to the discovery of your own Baba Yaga, whose hand-painted portrait you will be able to take with you.
The workshop will be run by
