Immersive sound experiences linked with the cycles of nature draw on ancient and evolving communal practice raising our heart centred awareness and reminding us of our interconnectedness within the web of life.  

At Imbolc, a Celtic celebration of this halfway point between the winter solstice and the spring equinox we can honour the return of the light with the first sparks of spring. 

As the sap is rising in the trees and the first shoots are pushing through the earth, we can honour the life force rising from within us after the rest of winter and allow the sonic vibrations and reiki energy to gently expand our connection to the web of life. 

You are therefore warmly welcome to join us for this sound ceremony where a family of full moon Nepalese singing bowls, gong, and other calming instruments along with voice, breath, meditation, and reiki energy will be used to soothe our nervous systems and allow the wisdom of our bodies and interbeing to emerge. 

The event is limited to ten people to create a nurturing space with personalised attention. 

Please note sound immersion is not recommended for those in the first trimester of pregnancy, those with recent metal implants in the body, those with severe mental health conditions and those who have sound induced epilepsy.

Price £30 (some concessions are available - email the studio for details)

Often times when we meet challenges or conflicts head on, muscle through, resist, and fight we make things harder for ourselves. We create struggle, hold tension, and build rigidity, and then tend to face other circumstances with this same energy creating even more struggle, tension, and rigidity. 

Whether on the yoga mat, or navigating challenges in life, sometimes we need to take a step to the side. Create some space, gather some perspective and ask ourselves, what part of this CAN I do?  Where do I need and want to put my energy right now?

This gives us the tools for life. It helps us step towards matters in life with more discernment but also helps us step towards what we’re facing, or juggling, in small manageable ways.  

In this workshop we will play with this theme through arm balancing to build courage, strength, and trust in the self. The arm balances will be sprinkled through a spacious and grounding Forrest Yoga practice, and will be taught in a way where the theme can be fully embodied. All levels welcome.

Now more than ever, we need the gentle power of rest to ease life’s stresses and strains. Whether you’re feeling burnt out, stuck, or simply want to relax and recharge, this session supports you in deepening your connection to yourself—finding balance, clarity, and calm.

You will be guided into deep relaxation while supported in restorative postures and immersed in gentle sonic vibrations. This practice helps harmonise the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual aspects of your being, addressing the root of your needs for deeper, lasting peace.

Benefits promote a restful state by slowing brainwave activity, calming the nervous system, and reducing heart and respiratory rates—helping to ease mind-body tension, enhance mood, improve sleep, and support a healthy immune system.

Please note sound immersion is not recommended for those in the first trimester of pregnancy, those with metal implants in the body, those with severe mental health conditions and those who have sound induced epilepsy.

‘If you can think of times in your life that you’ve treated people with extraordinary decency and love, and pure uninterested concern, just because they were valuable as human beings. The ability to do that with ourselves. To treat ourselves the way we would treat a really good, precious friend. Or a tiny child of ours that we absolutely loved more than life itself. And I think it’s probably possible to achieve that. I think part of the job we’re here for is to learn how to do this’ David Foster Wallace

New year, same you! Time to befriend yourself with some heart nourishing practice and physically enlivening flow. Using mindfulness meditation techniques and yoga asana, this workshop will be an opportunity to meet yourself where you are and where you might be.

A postnatal circle is a baby-friendly space to gather with other mothers, take some deeper breaths, be guided through some gentle stretches and share in the full spectrum experience of being a new mother. As an end of year gathering the theme for this circle will be reflecting on your motherhood experience in 20204, the highs, the lows and everything in between.

What is a circle?

A circle is an intentional and judgement free held space to gather as a group, reflect on your experience, share if you’d like and foster a deeper sense of togetherness.  

Why gather in circle?

Sharing stories reminds us of our connectedness. Sitting in community reminds us that we’re part of something bigger. In what can so often be an isolating and intensive time, circle is an opportunity honour what feels true and reconnect to a sense of shared experience in the postnatal period. It’s a powerful thing to hear someone speak and think ‘I feel that too’.

What to expect

• We’ll all gather in a circle on the floor (supported by bolsters and blankets)

• You’ll be led through a simple sequence of slow stretches to release some tension and feel a bit more grounded in your body

• A check-in question will be offered as a really gentle introduction to sharing

• The circle is then open for anyone who wants to share a high, a challenge or a theme that feels current (there’s absolutely no expectation to share if you’d rather listen)

• As the circle closes there will be time to chat within the space and drink some tea before a slow exit

Who is it for?

Anyone who feels called to be part of a postnatal community-focused space. New mothers and mothers of second, third, fourth etc. babies are welcome!

What you’ll need

All props will be provided; you may like to bring a blanket for your baby to lie on and some toys. There’s no need to prepare anything to say, no expectation to share and no perfect way of sharing. Crawling babies along with babes in arms are welcome! Equally you don’t have to bring your baby. This is an open, baby-friendly space. You’ll be able to feed, rock, change and walk around with your baby as you would at home. Tea and biscuits will be provided!

Have you given yourself time to reflect of late?
What feels stagnant and needs to move through?
What feels ready to emerge within you?

In this ever-evolving journey of life, we possess the innate ability to transform, just like nature gracefully transitions through its seasons. We hold the power to awaken our true selves and blossom into the individuals we aspire to be. My intention during our time together is for us to embrace the winds of change, reawaken our spirits, and emerge stronger, wiser, and more vibrant than ever before.
In each 90-min session together we will explore our personal relationship to ourselves and how the breath can be a powerful vehicle to reawakening what we hold most dear and may want to pursue.

Sundays Nov 17, 24 and Dec 1, 12-1:30pm 

£50 (or £20 per session)

 We live in a world where our strength; our ability to push through, “do and be it all”, and being busy is celebrated. Even our yoga practice reflects this energy as we rush to our mat and muscle our way through.

This way of living doesn’t sustain who we are. It cuts us off from our natural energy source, creates struggle, and leaves us feeling more disconnected.

When we slow down, and really take care of ourselves, we can drop into a softer, more receptive version of ourselves. We are able to access a version of our strength that is intuitive and wise. Steady and graceful. A form of strength that is sourced from within. Embodied.

In this workshop we will explore how to access a quality of softness and receptiveness within a strong, grounding Forrest Yoga Inspired practice.

You will experience what it is to hold space for yourself as you slow down, and ultimately you will leave feeling more comfortable in your own skin.

One of the things that attracted me to the practice of yoga was how playful it is. My relationship to my body had been one that was taxed through rigorous ballet training through my teens and early adulthood. When I was ready to try a new discipline I was looking for fun, and I found it in yoga and so much more.

THE RESET is a 2 hour layered descent into a deep state of grounding, calm and expansiveness using movement, rest and sound. Starting with slow somatic movement to unravel tension and soothe flightiness, the session will gradually move towards stillness. Using props such as blankets, bolsters and blocks you’ll be guided into a comfortable lying down position before being bathed in the sound of the gong + crystal bowls. The beauty of a sound bath is that the sound itself meditates you. This deeply immersive sound healing experience will invite you to journey into a state of profound relaxation and inner exploration. Lying in a comfortable restorative yoga pose, the vibrations from the instruments penetrate deeply to calm the nervous system & promote a sense of peace and well-being. Using ‘bottom-up’ (body to brain) strategies to regulate your nervous system, THE RESET serves as a soothing balm for tired, tense bodies and full brains.  

If you’re craving a full body reset, this is for you.

 If you’re in need of deep rest, this is for you.

 If your head feels full and your body tense, this is for you.

Stress affects us all at points in our lives. Whilst short bursts of stress can be necessary to stimulate and activate us, operating in this mode over long periods of time simply depletes us. When suffering with stress we can feel a huge tiredness in our bodies but spinning activity in our minds which make the rest that we crave hard to access. This workshop will explore what happens in our bodies when we get stressed and yoga tools that we can reach for to restore a sense of calm and access deep rest. The session will incorporate the gentle, but powerful 'pawanmuktasana' joint-releasing series which will ease tension from tip to toe, allowing energy to flow freely but calmly through the body again. Once the body has found some ease we will drop into restorative stillness to soak up deep rest. Open al all. No experience of yoga necessary. 

Cost: £35

As we enter a new year, there is often a refreshing feeling of a new beginning and perhaps, if we're being honest, an accompanying feeling that we are not (or what we have is not) enough. In come the resolutions, and while they may be positive in intention and nature, would it not be better to ask why we feel distant from this vision of ourselves in the first place? What small, achievable practices could we practice daily that would help us feel more connected to ourselves? Through yoga, we systematically declutter all of the stuff that covers our true self, or Ātman. We recognise and see beyond the things we identify with - the stories and beliefs we've learned to tell ourselves - to reveal our true nature which is always there, unchanging. A yoga practice can often end in this feeling of re-remembering - a blissful, peaceful connection to our deepest self. From this space, our truest intentions unfold. 

Rosie and Katrina have created this day retreat as an opportunity to drop in after the rush of the holidays and the new year. To draw your energy back to yourself and begin the new year feeling aligned and centred. We'll present simple, daily practices to take home with you and a small gift to help remind you to recentre when you need. Beginning with a dynamic yoga practice, we'll pause for a nourishing lunch together. We'll then move through a restorative practice which will end in a blissful sound bath by Breige, sending you out in the new year feeling grounded and connected to yourself again.
