Self-love

Self-Love – a somatic movement workshop with Ian Young

SUNDAY | 12:15 – 13:30 | BODY

In this workshop we will do lots of delicious somatic movements to create more ease in our somas (bodies). Somatics is often described as like giving yourself a massage every day as the movements squeeze into the tension in your body caused by everyday life and stress and then help to release that tension so that we can feel and move better. You will work through different areas of the body so we reach all the parts which we so often can’t release tension from. You will learn lots of practices to take away and learn a lot of awareness of habitual patterns which might not be serving you well so that you can begin the journey to change those habits so you don’t create so much tension in your body to begin with. Movements are gentle and accessible to all and mainly done on a mat but can be surprisingly powerful.

Joy Rhythm Connection

Joy Rhythm Connection – Ecstatic Dance with DJ Amada

SATURDAY | 20:00 – 21:30 | BODY

This session is an invitation to explore how our bodies can bring us joy through free-form movement once we connect with our inner dancer. It’s about being open to finding our own unique rhythm, what makes us feel alive in the moment when the mind isn’t needed and we can just tune inwards and let our bodies move as they please. This is very much in line with the ethos of Ecstatic Dance where we dance openly with whatever surfaces through our dance.

Dance of Serpent, Flight of Eagle

Dance of Serpent, Flight of Eagle – an elemental somatic dance with Helene Su

SATURDAY | 15:00 – 16:30 | BODY | £20

Dance with two of the most powerful animals in the ancient world, the snake for awakening our vital life force; and the eagle who connects us to the divine. 

We renew from inside out, for new beginnings, to dream big and bold.

For the Chinese the power of the snake is nothing short of awakening, initiation and total transformation. We renew from the inside out, as we redefine our sense of self.

And as we shed our outmoded layers, we call in the clarity of the almighty eagle. In native american medicine the eagle has the power to soar above the mundane in life, and gain a higher perspective.

This is a dance…for new beginnings

to go far and beyond

to gain a higher perspective

to aspire to dream big and bold.

Courage & Connection

Courage & Connection – a yoga, breathwork, meditation & sound workshop with The Bodart Practice

FRIDAY | 15:00 – 16:30 | BODY

East meets West as we blend traditional psychology with yoga, breathwork, meditation and sound healing. 

We start by exploring modern love. What is love? What does self-love look like and how do we connect lovingly with others? What blocks or resistances might we find along the path to love? 

We bring in the body connection as Cheryl guides a kundalini kriya and breathwork practice. The kriya will focus on opening the body up to feeling sensations and grounding in the 4th chakra (Anahata) and what it feels like to connect to the heart space. We will build a safe container to explore where we hold our emotions and any heaviness or anxiety through the gentle awareness of body sensations. With conscious and somatic movement and breath, we learn how to shift our emotions and release unconscious mind-body blocks. We allow time to relax and integrate the kriya, and breathwork with the sound of gong / nidra yoga to help the nervous system self-regulate and experience a stillness and calmness to go within. Finally we anchor the heart centre through meditation. We connect to the emotional body and feel the core of our being vibrate and talk to us in the silent language of the body. 

We hold space for reflections and sharing as we come back to the present moment and reconnect to each other.
