A Bit About Me
Victoria R.G. Newburn (Tori) is a deeply intuitive teacher, guide, and author devoted to soulful embodiment, energetic alignment, and conscious evolution. With almost two decades of professional experience, she weaves together ancient practices and modern insight through yoga, meditation, cosmic design, intuitive development, and multidimensional healing.
​
She is the founder of This Gentle Way, an online sanctuary offering mentorship, group trainings, and immersive courses that explore the sacred rhythms of body, soul, and spirit. A seasoned educator, Victoria has served as a Senior Teacher and Director of Continuing Education for YoYoYogi in Portland, Oregon, and contributed to numerous teacher training programs across the U.S.
​
In 2025, she released her debut memoir The Weaver & The Welder: A Memoir of Sacred Musings, a poetic and mystical exploration of archetypal integration, soul evolution, and sacred daily practice. The book is supported by a companion study guide and course series, inviting readers into deeper reflection and remembrance.
​
Victoria holds a Master of Fine Arts from American University and a Bachelor of Arts in Studio Art from DePauw University. Her teaching has touched communities across Washington, DC, Seattle, Portland, and beyond—both in person and through
international retreats and residencies. She continues to train in advanced esoteric studies including kundalini energetics, ancestral healing, quantum activation, and true sidereal astrology.
​
Whether she’s guiding a breath practice, facilitating a soul dialogue, or writing under the stars, Victoria serves as a luminous bridge between worlds—offering a grounded yet expansive path for those ready to live with intention, reverence, and heart.
