The Verdant Collective

The Verdant Collective is a women-centered wellness and learning community based in Boulder, Colorado, focused on embodied wellbeing, erotic intelligence, pleasure, and belonging. Described as a space to explore a free, nourished, and self-directed sense of womanhood, it brings together education, personal reflection, and community practices. Its co-leaders draw on more than five decades of combined experience and describe their approach as New World Women’s Culture, integrating teachings about eros and wellness with intentional community-building.

The Collective offers experiences for different levels of engagement, from free introductory learning to deeper programs. These include a free three-part online class series, Connecting with Erotic Pleasure; self-paced online courses; Wandering into Wellness, an embodied exploration of the nervous system and vagus nerve; and a four-month, in-person immersion in Boulder. Additional offerings include A Year in the Hut, 13 Days of Erotic Wellness, guides, free resources, and writing. The programs emphasize pleasure, self-awareness, and supportive connection, with participants describing experiences of care, safety, and personal growth.
