The hag school founder
Danielle Dulsky is a heathen visionary, storyteller, painter, and word-witch. The author of Woman Most Wild, The Holy Wild, Seasons of Moon and Flame, and The Sacred Hags Oracle, she teaches internationally and has facilitated circles, embodiment trainings, communal spell-work, and seasonal rituals since 2007. She is the founder of The Hag School, the lead teacher for the Flame-Tender Teacher Training, and believes in the emerging power of wild collectives and sudden circles of curious dreamers, cunning witches, and rebellious artists in healing our ailing world. As an Irish-American, Danielle’s witchcraft is deeply rooted in Celtic philosophy and Irish mythology. She believes fervently in the role of ancestral healing, embodiment, and animism in fracturing the longstanding systems supporting white-body supremacy and environmental unconsciousness, is committed to centering the voices and teachings of POC and LGBTQIA+ folks in her work as founder of Living Mandala Yoga, LLC and The Hag School and supports organizations and initiatives that do the same. She graduated from Arcadia University in 2004 with a degree in painting and has been making mischief and mixed-media art ever since. Parent to two beloved wildlings and partner to a potter, Danielle fills her world with nature, family, and intentional awe. Find her praying under pine trees, wandering through the haunted places, and whispering to her grandmothers’ ghosts.
The hag school council
The Hag School council is comprised of witches, storytellers, social justice educators, ritualists, dancers, astrologers, and others who meet regularly to revision, pare down, and reflect upon the school’s role in a wounded world. All council members are also guest teachers for the Flame-Tender Teacher Training as well as the Hag School retreats and were instrumental in designing the curriculum.
