Saturday 18th October
Take a moment to nurture yourself on your pregnancy journey. Whether it’s your first time or you’ve walked this path before, this afternoon offers a safe and supportive space to unwind and honour this special chapter.
We’ll start with a slow and strengthening flow blending yoga and pilates-style movements designed to support and strengthen your changing body. From there, we’ll transition into restorative stretches to ease discomfort, calming prenatal breathwork to soothe your nervous system, and a guided meditation to help you connect with your baby.
The experience culminates with an extended sound bath accompanied by the soothing sounds of crystal bowls and soft chimes, which will leave you feeling deeply rested.
Finally, enjoy herbal teas and cake as you connect and share with other parents-to-be. Join us for this nourishing afternoon dedicated to you and your growing little one.
Wednesday 22nd October
Your intentional time to rest, recover, and transform. Aligning with the new moon's renewing energy, we take the opportunity to plant seeds of intention while granting ourselves the space to deeply rest and reset. Through the practices of yin and yoga nidra—or sleep yoga—we transition from the day's busyness to a profound state of calm. The session guides your brain into the restorative alpha and theta states, creating a deep connection between your conscious desires and subconscious mind and paving the way for a life lived with heightened awareness and presence.
Friday 24th October
We'll gather in late October where we’re invited to notice the spaces in-between. Humans work in seasons and cycles. But what about the mid season moments? This breath and sound ceremony is a celebration of liminal time, which is no less sacred that the turn of a season.
This evening we’ll gather to explore that pause through the union of breath and sound. Conscious connected breathwork will open the body and clear the pathways, while the soothing sounds of singing bowls, chimes, crystal pyramids and more will soften the edges, guiding you into deeper presence and connection.
Together, we’ll attune to the subtler rhythms of this moment in the year — the spaciousness, the stillness and the possibility of renewal.
Saturday 25th October
In partnership with Club B.
A monthly meet-up for movement and connection for mums, birthing parents, babies, dads, co-parents, and caregivers—because raising a child takes a village.
Kin is a postnatal yoga class for moms/birthing parents to stretch, breathe and take a moment for themselves. While the class is just for birthing parents, we’ve set up our downstairs lounge as a cosy space for co-parents, dads and caregivers to kick back, look after baby, and make some new mates too. After class, everyone comes together downstairs for tea, biscuits and conversation.
Coming solo? No problem. Pre-crawlers are welcome in the practice room with you during class.
