ABOUT ISHKA

Ishka is inspired by the Gaelic (Scottish + Irish) word for water - uisge or uisce.

Water is both soft and strong, a single droplet and the vast sea. It replenishes, gives life, and over time carves through mountains. Like water, Ishka represents resilience, transformation, and connection - to ourselves, to nature, and to the wisdom of our ancestors.

Rooted in the land of Scotland (Alba), we honour ancient techniques and natural medicines - breath, sound, energy work, community, and plants - as powerful tools for wellbeing.

We are life partners and creative collaborators. Together, we founded Infinite Sky in 2016, a mural painting and community art organisation.

We also both worked for many years as Managers for ScrapAntics, a Dundee-based social justice enterprise, which gave us invaluable experience in community work and inspired our passion for bringing opportunities - often reserved for the privileged - to those who need them most.

Over the years, we have held many circles and workshops, worked with underserved communities, managed large scale projects, participated in ceremonies and retreats around the world, and learned from diverse cultural practices.

In 2025, we spent time with the indigenous Shipibo tribes in the Peruvian Amazon, connecting deeply with their plants and traditions - wisdom that we now weave into our work with Ishka.

We founded Ishka out of a shared passion for holding spaces where people can experience the transformative wellbeing practices that have changed our lives and continue to support us on our journeys.
