Hi, I’m Ranier Amiel

welcome to my little corner of the internet...

  • Work Out with Me

    Welcome to the best butt of your life. YES Tiger is a dance-based strength training workout class/community in Santa Fe.

  • Transform with Me

    Blood + Honey is a community, an evolving set of teachings, and an experience to support your authentic reclamation of self. Welcome to you.

  • Art with Me

    What would it feel like to be seen? In your entirety. I paint the essence of a woman as translated through her most intimate geographies. I witness you and the depths of who you are.

Here is the space where you can find what I’m up to currently.

I have been an artist and a mover and a business and brand maker since I was wee tiny and currently teach classes- both for the
body and for the soul, and make art (of the body and soul) and own a coffee shop.

I love people and movement and color and am a one woman cheer squad for people’s radical authenticity. I believe all grace should come with a measure of grit, and like a good bit of irreverence in all that which I hold most holy. I like old boots with my tutu and cardamom in my coffee.

Hunt truth.
Make beauty.
Love.

These are the guiding tenants and my primary ‘to-do’s. Welcome to my world.

xo,

R

Who are you?

  • The BLOOD+HONEY coursework is designed to unlock, inspire and create the container for you to find: You. Your power, your deep knowings, your sex and magnetism… They are all there, in your body. Waiting. You hold the keys and know the pathway- we just help you find them (and hold a dance party at the doorway). LEARN MORE

  • Want something beautiful that reflects who you are back to you? Want to be Witnessed in your most intimate unseen places and take home a visual talisman of that conversation? Want to witness an art performance and/or own a piece of the aftermath? How about blob creatures? Want a curious and wondrous painting from Blobville? Each or all of these things is possible. LEARN MORE

  • I originally designed my movement method (YES TIGER) to cross train dancers. The goal was strength with length in a format that still felt a little like dancing. Over the last 12 years of teaching this method, however, it has grown into some other kind of wild thing. Part fitness class, part dance party- little bit rock concert, little bit church- YES TIGER has become a community and a way of life. LEARN MORE

  • Maybe you want to change your life, and reclaim your power, and SLEIGH THE PATRIARCHY, and fill your home with magical art works or maybe… you just want a damn cup of coffee. Or a matcha. Or to sip a ‘glory of unicorns’ while sitting in a velvet chair… If any of the above apply GO HERE
