A gentle and grounding experience to help girls shine from the inside out.
About this Event

This joyful and imaginative workshop invites girls to explore the beautiful colors of their energy through movement, journaling, connection and creativity.

In a time of change, within our bodies, emotions, friendships, and identity—this workshop offers a steady mirror back to our inner light. Inspired by the chakra system and the natural elements, girls will discover how to express emotions, connect to their bodies, and celebrate who they are—all through crafts, music, and storytelling.

Together we’ll weave sisterhood, self-love, and magic into an afternoon filled with color and connection.

A gentle and grounding experience to help girls shine from the inside out.

Ellen is bringing special gifts for each participant!

From Deva Shantay: "Ellen is one of the most dedicated and enthusiastic women I’ve ever had the privilege of knowing. Her energy is contagious, and her passion for mothering and for empowering young girls to become confident, inspired, and strong women is truly remarkable. She leads with heart, and every interaction with her leaves you feeling uplifted and motivated. I’m so grateful for the work she’s doing and thrilled that more people will get to experience the power of her mission.”

Meet your Host

Ellen Bradley is a mother, master yoga teacher, author, and visionary guide devoted to reawakening the innate wisdom in women and girls. After spending eight years worldschooling her three daughters across 40+ countries, Ellen’s life became a living classroom—rooted in presence, connection, and the courage to untether from convention.

She is the founder of The Ohana Project, a global movement empowering girls with holistic tools—yoga, breathwork, journaling, self-inquiry, ritual, and sisterhood—to navigate their emotions, honor their bodies, and grow into confident, compassionate young women.

Ellen’s work gently invites women home to themselves. Through sacred circles, movement, and storytelling, she helps mothers reconnect with their essence beyond roles—returning to rhythms that feel authentic, nourishing, and free.

She is also the author of A Wildly Different Normal and the producer of the forthcoming documentary series Untethered, which explores motherhood, resilience, and the wisdom of women across cultures.

Guided by the spiritual principle of moksha—liberation—Ellen walks a path of truth, soul-led learning, and love in action.
