Cost £15

Are you longing to connect creatively with your body, to release and relax, unfold and unfurl, pause and breath and allow your body to sing it’s own song?  This workshop is a permission slip for you to do just that and to luxuriate in movement that feels delicious to body and soul.

I offer a structured warm up and gentle prompts to guide you into moving.  No steps or choreography, just an opportunity to move and to be with playfulness, presence and curiosity.  We’ll work alone, in groups and in partners, offering and receiving mindful touch to support ease of movement.

No experience necessary.  These workshops aim to support you to feel into your unique bodily expression.  Move at your own pace and according to what feels good to you.

Even if it’s warm I recommend you wear a long trouser as opposed to shorts. Bring socks in case you want to slide on the floor (yes, behaving like a kid might be what feels nourishing to your body) and a warm layer (in case your body wants to be still and silent).

I am a registered Dance Movement Psychotherapist and I have a background in community dance and somatic movement.

Either bring your partner or a friend, or come alone and pair up with someone for some exploration of games and techniques to build trust, communication, connection and most of all have fun!

Most people that attend a beginners Acroyoga workshop end up leaving feeling empowered at doing something they never thought they could do. It’s much more accessible than you might think! No experience necessary but having a yoga or movement/exercise practice is a bonus.

Next Workshop coming soon

10.00-13:00

On this 3-hour workshop we will continue working on the Hui Chun Qi Gong, a set of five balancing seated practices related to the Five Elements of the Daoist tradition. After covering the Water and the Earth sequences, we will move on to the Wood element.

We will also be reviewing more broadly the details of the principles of practice – including alignments, movement, breathing and mental awareness, through standing and seated postures.

Everyone is welcome, beginners to experienced practitioners, no limits of flexibility, age or prior knowledge. There will be a break half way through the morning.

£30 (concessions available). Please email or message me to book a place
