Gong Bath and Sacred Sound Journey with Tom Stacey
Friday 12 December | 7-8:15pm | £20
Gong Baths are a form of inactive meditation, where you "bathe" in the vibrations of the sound. The sound and vibration of the gongs works as a tool to balance the physical body, mind, emotions and energetic body. Known as the sound of total resonance, the sound of the gong gives the body a sonic massage helping to stimulate circulation, activate the parasympathetic nervous system and encourage a meditative state.
Tom will use symphonic and wind gongs plus Himalayan singing bowls to create a transformational space for deep release.
Bring a blanket to stay warm and cosy and a yoga mat or other comfortable mat to lie down on.

Theme: The Art of Letting Go - Intelligent Surrender for Yoga Teachers
This December session invites you into the powerful and timely practice of letting go. Not as giving up, but as intelligent surrender. A beautiful theme following on from our Sustainable Yoga Teaching Circle.
The kind that restores clarity, steadies the nervous system, and softens the places where we may be holding too tightly in our teaching and our lives.
This session will be beautifully balanced between insight and embodiment:
Part One: Theory & Guided Discussion
What 'letting go' really means in a modern teaching context
The difference between healthy surrender and burnout
Where teachers often grip & over-effort
How intelligent surrender supports longevity, creativity, and grounded leadership
Part Two: Restorative Practice & Mini Yoga Nidra
We will then move into a deeply nourishing restorative yoga practice, followed by a short Yoga Nidra for release and renewal. This is an opportunity to embody what we have explored through the body, breath, and nervous system, allowing yourself to truly land and reset at this busy time of year.
You are welcome to join live on Zoom or catch up later via the replay.

Yin and Myofascial Release Workshop with Anya Hawkes
Friday 16 January | 6:30-9:00pm | £25
A Yin & Myofascial Release Journey for Body, Mind & Soul
Beneath the surface of the muscles lies a living webbing, our fascia. An incredible matrix of connective tissue which holds stories, emotions, and tension patterns we often don’t even realise we’re carrying.
In this deeply restorative and intelligently guided workshop, we’ll explore the myofascial meridians - the pathways that link every part of the body through this connective tissue network. Through slow myofascial release techniques and long-held yin postures, you’ll learn how to approach the fascia with awareness and precision, allowing the body to unwind, reorganise, and return to its natural ease.
This is a practice of soft liberation. Using self myofascial release, gentle pressure, stillness, and mindful movement we melt the physical and emotional layers that weigh us down.
You’ll leave feeling lighter, freer, and more connected from the inside out.
Perfect for yoga teachers and practitioners curious about fascia, functional movement, and embodied stillness and a beautiful introduction to your Yin & Myofascial Training.

Finding ways to massage that can be sustained over a career is all important, so you can maintain that love and passion for what you do."
