Spirit Alchemy Collective was founded from the belief that healing spaces should reflect the diversity of the world around us. As a Queer woman of colour & community leader, Founder - Janelle has intentionally cultivated a training environment that celebrates diverse identities, perspectives, and lived experiences.

Our faculty includes allied teachers from varied backgrounds, and we are dedicated to creating a space where BIPOC and LGBTQIA2s+ students feel represented, supported, and at home. This isn't about fitting into a wellness stereotype. It's about coming together in authenticity, connection, and community.

❋ Intentional Structure

We blend guided moments, open exploration, and space to reflect, so the experience feels both focused and fluid.

❋ Collaborative Energy

Connection is a core part of the process. You’ll learn just as much from the group as from the content itself.

❋ Expert Facilitation

Led by experienced guides who know how to hold space, encourage participation, and keep things moving with purpose.

❋ A Supportive Space

Our trainings prioritize comfort, safety, and respect. So you can show up as you are and fully engage in the process.

What People Are Saying…

The sisterhood I didn’t even know existed.”— Julia Kankis

“Truly transformative.”— Ally Asis

“Such an incredibly connecting and soulful experience.”— Sarah Mcdonald

“Doing my yoga teacher training with Soul School at the beautiful Yandara Yoga Institute in Mexico was such an unforgettable experience. After completing the program, my first yoga teacher training, I have the confidence to design and teach my own classes in asana, breathwork and meditation. The classes were creative, engaging and fun to participate in. The container they created was such a loving and safe space for me to experience personal growth and to really connect with myself and build my personal practice and teaching skills.

I started my journey with Soul School in Peru at their SACRED retreat and it was so transformative that I decided to do their YTT without much experience in yoga. I had a feeling that this would be a great opportunity to continue on my path of healing/self discovery and it totally exceeded my expectations. Soul School attracts the most beautiful souls and provides the most loving container for doing this type of work. Learning the true meaning of yoga has helped me come to terms with a lot of parts of my life that led me astray and I finally feel like I am on the right path. Soul school, I cannot thank you enough for helping me to do this work. My perspective on life has completely shifted since the start of this journey 6 months ago.”
