New Year, New Moon
with Amber Ricchetti and Shanna Nardone
Gather in a circle of women* under the magic of the New Year’s New Moon for an evening of intention-setting and connection with your inner goddess.
Our evening together begins with an energizing Kundalini Yoga Practice to awaken your inner Shakti (divine feminine power). The organic, expressive yoga will set the stage for your inner goddess to come out and play.
Kundalini yoga is a combination of breath, movement, and sound. The idea is that we all have energy gathered at the base of our spine and, through the practice of Kundalini, we bring that energy up our spine through the seven chakras, and out the crown of our head.

With our Shakti freely flowing we will invoke the Goddess Kali’s transformational energy to release what’s in our way and align with our deepest truth and purpose.
We will share a Sacred New Moon Ritual and create a crystal grid to amplify our intentions and anchor the lunar energies over the coming year.
The experience will also include reiki energy, aromatherapy, meditation, journaling, sound, oracle cards, and more. This is a beautiful opportunity to gather in sisterhood and harness the magic and new begins of both a new year and a new moon. Namaste!
*This event is open to all those who identify as female, including both cis and trans gender.
About your Guides
Amber
Amber, who specializes in pre/postnatal yoga and Barre, is an enthusiastic and supportive instructor. Amber’s first yoga class as a high-school student was right over in Princeton Harbor. Further exploration from there led her to a regular Bikram practice as a young adult. Eventually, Amber’s interest in yoga pivoted to the comfort, peace, and community it provides. Her formative experience in taking and teaching yoga in Madison, WI, led her to teach Yin, Barre3, Yoga for Kids, and Pre/Postnatal. She is also a certified Reiki Master.
Amber spent her first decade in Southern California until her family settled in Half Moon Bay, where she graduated from HMBHS. She attended UC Irvine, where she received her BA in English. After college, she worked as a journalist for the HMB Review and gained further experience in marketing. Once Amber found healing from postpartum depression through yoga, she walked away from her traditional career path and dedicated herself to helping new mothers to find support through the practice.
Shanna
Meet Shanna Nardone, a Certified Life Coach and the founder of Maternal Grove. Her company is focused on self discovery, empowerment, and individual transformation.
As a woman, wife, mother of two, entrepreneur, and more, Shanna learned first hand the importance of finding acceptance and the beauty within herself to live a spacious and balanced life. She chose to stop allowing societal pressures to define what it meant to be a “good mom” and woman and started living an authentic life for herself.
Her mission is to support other maternal figures in rediscovering and reconnecting with themselves, their inner beauty, creating boundaries, prioritizing themselves and their time, and exploring new outlooks.
