Creatively Fit 2024

Upgrade your human experience with cosmic truths

Led by Kim Krans

The role of the artist is to awaken dormant energy – in the self and in the world.

Together we explore the infinite force of creativity through the lens of alchemy, archetypes, dreamwork, yoga philosophy, and shamanism. Along the way we will be making, sharing, and learning to appreciate art like never before.

Kim Krans

Kim is a prolific artist influenced by a wide range of spiritual traditions and working across various creative industries. She’s most known for her NY Times bestselling The Wild Unknown Tarot Deck and Guidebook. Originally self-published, Kim’s occult-turned-mainstream drawings can be spotted on tarot cards, handbags, books, snowboards, and tattoos across the globe.

With a master’s degree in fine art and Jungian Psychology, her seeker's heart has brought her to study in-depth practices of Kundalini and classical shamanism in India, Africa, Europe, and the UK.

What To Expect

What is Creatively Fit?

Thirteen weeks of online classes culminating in a 5 day in-person event in Malibu, California. Each week Kim leads a two-hour class, and a one-hour study hall (Kim prefers to call the study halls “studio time” because you’ll be making art together in real time, followed by Q&A). Through the arch of this 13-week course you will be taken through the alchemical journey of creativity, with Kim as your guide and a supportive community as your ally.

Who is Creatively Fit for?

This course is for those with hidden talents and stirring dreams. It’s for those willing to work through awkwardness and nervousness for the sake of honoring the creative force. It’s for those who’ve hit a creative plateau, who used to make art but stopped, for those who can’t finish a project or are feeling distracted, lost, or can’t remember why creativity matters at all. We’ll practice reliable, go-to techniques to strengthen and sustain the creative life. This course is particularly suited to those interested in the artist as alchemist - how our breath, body, imagination, symbols, dreams, and intuition can become the source of our power.

Who is it not for?

This course is not for those unwilling to try new techniques, practices, and prompts that are designed to awaken creativity. This body of work requires courage, as we will put “pen to page” by means of writing, drawing, collaging, performing, reading, and listening. This course is not for those unwilling to engage with the deep mysteries of creativity. The role of the visionary artist requires us to ask questions that are unanswerable. If you are not willing to wonder, to open new eyes and ears – this is not your course.

"Kim Krans has done for the shadowy world of tarot what Nirvana did for the underground punk scene: Make a dense art form relatable enough to bring its spirit alive for the masses."
