FORMATIONS


Unique events for anyone seeking transformative experiences that inspire self-expression, connection, and personal growth.

What are Formations?

Formations are individual events typically revolving around topics that we believe create fertile ground for living the fullest expression of your authentic self. Think: nature, vulvas, movement, freedom, pleasure, creative expression…

Birdie Paddle Classic: Hey Birdie’s 5th Bird-Day Party

Thursday, June 11, 5:30 - 8:30 p.m.
Moodswing, Denver

Five years ago, Hey Birdie began with a simple intention:to bring women together in a way that feels real—grounded in connection, curiosity, and compassion.

This Bird-Day, we’re celebrating not just the milestone,but the community that has made it possible.

Join us for an evening that blends play, presence, and people—anchored by The Birdie Paddle Classic, a pickleball tournament with guided instruction designed for all levels.

Whether you come to play or simply to be part of the energy, the night will include:

  • The Birdie Paddle Classic (tournament + light instruction)

  • A curated group of Flight Guides + local partners

  • Small bites + sips

  • Space to connect, wander, and be in conversation

WHO THIS IS FOR

This gathering brings together the full arc of the flock—Birds currently in Flight Club, those who have flown with us, women who are curious about joining, our Flight Guides, and the partners and collaborators who have been part of the journey.

If you’ve ever been part of Hey Birdie—or felt the pull toward it—this is a place to step in.

Seasonal Mini Ayurveda Retreats

A seasonal gathering series rooted in Ayurveda, embodiment, and ritual.

Each gathering is an invitation to reconnect with your body as a source of intelligence — and to begin noticing the rhythms already shaping how you feel, move, and live.

Through teaching, movement, sensory ritual, and shared nourishment, we explore what it means to live in relationship with the season — both around you and within you.

This is not about doing more. It is about learning how to listen.

Each experience supports:

  • A greater sense of steadiness and resilience in your body and mind

  • A deeper connection to your own cues, needs, and energy

  • Simple, seasonal practices you can actually integrate

  • Being held in a supportive space as you explore and reconnect

Participants receive a Seasonal Ritual Card at each gathering, creating a year-long guide to living in rhythm with their bodies.

    • a clearer understanding of what your body needs in this season

    • a few simple practices you’ll actually use

    • a felt sense of calm, spaciousness, and reconnection

    • a Seasonal Ritual Card to support you beyond the gathering

  • This is a 3-hour, group gathering designed to feel both structured and spacious.

    You’ll be guided through:

    • a seasonal teaching grounded in Ayurveda

    • embodied movement and breath

    • a hands-on ritual practice using cooling oils

    • a participatory nourishment experience

    • time to integrate, reflect, and connect

  • Formations are individual events offered by Hey Birdie that allow you to participate without the commitment of a longer program. They are designed to intentionally hold space for you to honor your curiosities, unleash your fullest potential, and connect with others in a spirit of joy and compassion. Formations revolve around various topics that we believe will help you live your fullest life and bring your authentic self to the surface.

  • To join a Formation, simply visit our website or subscribe to our newsletter to stay informed about upcoming events. When a Formation is scheduled, we will announce the details, including the date, time, and topic. Registration information will be provided, and you'll have the opportunity to secure your spot by following the instructions outlined on the event page. Please note that spaces for Formations may be limited, so we recommend signing up early to guarantee your participation. We look forward to welcoming you to our vibrant community of curious and courageous women in the Hey Birdie Formation events!

  • Each Formation event is curated around a specific topic of interest chosen by Hey Birdie. It could be anything from nature exploration to discussions about femininity, solstices, or embracing the essence of womanhood. Formations offer an opportunity to engage in exciting activities and meaningful conversations related to these topics, allowing you to gain new insights, connect with like-minded individuals, and expand your perspective.

  • During a Formation, we expect all participants to show up with an open mind, ready to engage in respectful and meaningful conversations. We strive to create a safe and inclusive space where everyone can share their thoughts, experiences, and perspectives without ego or judgment. By holding space for one another in this way, we can create a supportive environment for personal growth and connection.

  • Formations are held at various times throughout the year, based on our current curiosities and availability. Dates, times, and activities for each Formation event are set in advance and will be communicated to you when you register or check our website for updates.

  • No, there is no long-term commitment required for Formations. Each event is standalone, allowing you to choose the ones that align with your interests and availability. Feel free to participate in as many or as few Formations as you like, based on your own preferences and schedule.

  • Absolutely! We encourage you to invite your friends, family, or colleagues to join you in a Formation. It's a wonderful opportunity to share meaningful experiences, deepen connections, and explore new topics together within the Hey Birdie community.
