Spirit Ridge

Josi gives gratitude to Beth Rutty, founder of the private studio space, that shares movement classes, and further healing modalities. They are excited to support fostering a community space, that shares times for us to breathe, move, and be together, in a safer and more accountable space. The studio holds space for small group classes, as well as special events to facilitate good relations and support for the local community.

Fall Classes

Modified Intentional Movement (MIM) is based on yoga, functional movement, and breathing practices, that are adjusted with props and a simplified range of motion, that can shift over time. The MIM series is curated to support our overall wellbeing, and designed with our intentions, everyday efforts, and joys in mind, be it with family, friends, animals, and/or nature. Josi is facilitating both a summer & fall session for the MIM series with Spirit Ridge studio.

Josi continues to study and practice with the many branches of yoga, and within the past 16 years, has facilitated movement & breath practices from Canada to Peru, Ecuador, and Bahrain. Josi has studied with multiple teachers in meditation (dhyana), yoga asana, pranayama, and philosophy worldwide. They are a certified Hatha Yoga teacher, with additional studies and teaching certifications in Anusara yoga, Reiki, and is a mobility specialist in Functional Range Conditioning.

“I’ve experienced so much growth working and studying with Josi. Yes, she brings years of experience and knowledge through yoga, meditation, energy work and intuitive connection. But what has allowed for such transformation for me is being in the space she holds, the circle where we explore and grow our personal empowerment and create unconditional support for all in community. Working with Josi has been part of my personal practice for several years and more to come.”

josi's hands on a log

"Josi, you are an amazing human being and I will forever be grateful for our paths to have met! Practicing with you lit a passion and light within me that has only grown stronger and brighter with time. And your mentorship and guidance has always been there for me. From yoga and meditations, to the deep conversations on spiritual awakenings, you have always supported and enriched my knowledge. And now, although we are miles and miles away, you have provided such a wonderful platform for me and so many others to share our journeys, a safe and comfortable space where we can share and grow together. Your enormous pool of knowledge and experience with spiritual and energetic work has been extremely helpful in my journey as a yoga teacher! You have a beautiful gift of sharing from your experiences so openly and so comfortably which I appreciate so much as a student. You have always provided such practical and useful tools that can be applied to day to day practices which are helping me grow and evolve each and every day!

local energy connections

Josi is a teacher of subtle energy practices and a tarot diviner, for well over 13 years. They have taught Reiki for 12 of those years, which has supported further connections to their ancestral medicines and ways. As an energy medicine practitioner, they share subtle energy body treatments, as well as services to support cleansing/protection of your home. These are shared to assist in your overall well-being, maintenance of pains/discomforts in body and mind, as well as to secure more space to feel safer and more at ease in.

tending to Body Earth

Our body and our home can share good harmony, and further support our overall safety and wellbeing in mind, body, and heart. Josi's services are in connections with the land you are on, the place you are in, and your soul that resides within you. They are assisted by ancestors, the elements, and those most Divine.

“Josi is a kind, compassionate and powerful healer. She possesses a deep respect for the teachings that she shares very generously. It has been such a pleasure to learn from her. She pushes you to expand your mind and develop your gifts feeling fully held and supported along the journey. I am so grateful to have been able to learn from such a grounded teacher. The tools I have developed through her guidance have allowed me to feel more confident and able as an intuitive energy healer. Josi you are so loved and respected. I would recommend her to anyone who is ready to open to the world of energy medicine and spiritual guidance.”

By Donation/Exchange

For house consultations, please email to arrange an initial phone call, where i can assess what's needed.

Body energy treatments are with Josi, Reiki, and Ancestral medicine helpers, as needed.

My energy services are offered in sacred reciprocity, via donation, or exchange. When done locally, cash/e-transfer is preferred. I tend to share these private services in your home, but a private studio space can be arranged as needed. When a service occurs at a private studio, or i must travel by car more than 30mins, a request for gas money/studio rental fee is shared.

From the monies received of your donation for agreed-upon energy services, a portion is always shared forwards to Black &/ Indigenous support initiatives in the local/global areas. Updates of all mutual aid support is shared on Josi's Patreon.

All bookings requests can be made by email:

please share your contact number, area, and some good times to reach you, so we can then arrange an initial phone chat, leading to a confirmed booking for energy support services.

“Josi is an amazing healer. I had never experienced energy work until I worked with Josi and it truly blew my mind; the physical sensations, as well as the calming and grounding that I experienced internally. Josi is confident and strong, combining that with being gentle and compassionate at the same time. I have no hesitation in recommending Josi. She is a joy to work with and to learn from, and I miss our sessions greatly. I am truly thankful for having met Josi and for her introduction to the beautiful energy of Reiki”

“Life is such a truly remarkable thing, Josi and I met 15 years ago through a marriage. Little did I know that she would become such a catallistic part of the healing that would take place while on my journey. I don’t think I’ve ever personally known anyone that is driven by such passion or for such a unique goal as to actively create a safe and healing community. I am deeply grateful for the time that I’ve been blessed to spend under Josi’s healing wing. She has relieved my troubled heart and mind in such a resounding way on numerous occasions. Josi is a gracious and knowledgeable teacher and true healer. I’m amazed at her knowledge and gift to relay information about energy so that anyone can understand it and access it. Her divine energy healing and teaching has lifted me to the secure and focused place that I find myself in now.”
