Thousands of people worldwide have already experienced the transformational power of Wayapa Wuurrk®. Now it's your turn to share it.
The problem
We live in the most connected era in human history, yet loneliness, burnout and anxiety are at an all-time high.
People are spending billions on wellness apps, gym memberships, and self-help books. But deep down, something still feels hollow. Because true wellbeing can't be found if the Earth — our very source of life — is unwell.
For over 100,000 years, Australian Aboriginal people lived in harmony with the land, sustained by an unbroken connection to Country, community, and Spirit. That connection didn't just feel good. It was the foundation of everything — physical health, mental clarity, purpose, and belonging.
That thread hasn't been lost. It's been waiting.

The solution
Introducing Wayapa Wuurrk®, the world's only accredited earth mindfulness practice
Wayapa Wuurrk® is a sacred practice of Earth mindfulness and action, born from ancient Indigenous wisdom.
It begins with a simple, powerful truth: caring for the Earth is the first step in awakening true harmony of Mind, Body, and Spirit.
Through movement, visualisation, storytelling, and deep listening, Wayapa guides people back to what they've always known — that they are not separate from nature. They are nature.
And when you become a certified Wayapa Wuurrk® Practitioner, you carry that gift into the world.
Who it’s for
This training is for you if you are…
A wellness professional looking to add something genuinely transformative to your practice
A teacher, coach, therapist, or community leader who wants to facilitate deeper healing
Ready to leave behind the surface-level and step into something with real roots
Feeling called to work at the intersection of personal wellbeing and planetary care
Wanting to build or grow a business around work that actually matters to you
We've trained hundreds of practitioners from all backgrounds, cultures, ages, and professions: yoga teachers, psychologists, nurses, educators, corporate trainers, and more. You don't need any prior experience. You just need to be 16 or over and ready to show up fully.
The experience
A 7-day immersion unlike any training you've done before
We don't do workbooks. We don't do lectures. We train you the ancient way, now called experiential learning.
Over 7 transformative days (50 hours), you'll learn through storytelling, deep listening, lively discussion, body memory, and lots of Wayapa practice. By the end of the week, you won't just know Wayapa. You'll be Wayapa — ready to deliver it with confidence and authenticity.
Day 1–5: Immersed in the philosophies, concepts, knowledge, and elements of Wayapa Wuurrk®. You'll learn how to teach it as both a physical practice and a guided visualisation — guided by 2 accredited Wayapa Trainers in a group of no more than 10 participants.
Day 6–7: Each participant delivers the Introduction to Wayapa® Workshop to the group. This is your real-world rehearsal — your moment to step into your role as a practitioner.
Training runs 9:30am–5pm daily, with breaks included.

What others say
What happens when you spend a week in Wayapa
After a week immersed in ancient wisdom, storytelling, and deep practice with a like-minded tribe, our graduates consistently describe the same thing:
That's the Wayapa effect. And it doesn't stop at the end of Day 7. It ripples outward into every session you deliver, every person you reach, every community you touch.
“I went into the Wayapa Diploma course with a huge admiration, respect and love for our Aboriginal people and their culture, however I still felt very disconnected from them and I didn’t understand why until going through the 7 days intensive with Jamie and, everything fell into place right at the last day before my presentation! I not only feel more connected to this amazing culture but more connected to the earth and what that means! My indigenous earth soul has been awakened!”
