The Renaissance Woman’s Circle

Established 2019

The Renaissance Woman’s Circle is a spiritual community grounded in connection, reflection, and ritual. It is a place of gathering for women who share an interest in yoga, meditation, and conscious living, and who value practising and reflecting together.

Founded by Avril Bastiansz, the circle is shaped by the guiding principles of Identity, Purpose, Community, and Service. Gatherings are held to mark seasonal thresholds and meaningful moments in life, creating space for conversation, shared meals, presence, and simple ceremony.

This is not a course to complete, but a place to return — again and again — as life unfolds. A steady, familiar circle that offers continuity, belonging, and reflection through different seasons of being and becoming.

Seasonal gatherings are rooted in Being • Becoming • Belonging, held through ritual, shared presence, and community.
