Fire Tenders play an essential support role in firewalking events, helping ensure that fire is held with care, respect, and attention to safety. This class offers an educational and experiential introduction to the responsibilities involved in tending a ceremonial fire.

Participants explore fire as a natural element, learning to observe its behavior, care for it responsibly, and understanding its role in both practical and symbolic contexts throughout history. The class covers foundational fire safety principles, basic tending techniques, and an overview of commonly used tools.

The Art and Practice of Fire Tending is a two-part class combining online learning with hands-on, in-person practice. The experience also includes an introduction to Trilogy mythology, an overview of fire anatomy, and key safety protocols, providing a grounded framework for supporting firewalking events in a thoughtful and responsible way.
