Autumn Tranquility
“There is something so special in the early leaves drifting from the trees – as if we are all to be allowed a chance to peel, to refresh, to start again.”
- Ruth Amed
As the vibrant colours of autumn give way to the serene and contemplative tones of late season, the leaves give us their last dance, we're invited to dive into the deeper depths of ourselves. This is the season that invites us to let go, a preparation for winter and a returning to earth and inwards.
You’re invited to come along for a weekend surrounded by nature, softness and community. Think movements that feel delicious, nutritious foods, cool and crips air, cozy blankets and a warming fire. Our aim is for you to leave feeling well cared for, rested and renewed after this weekend.
During the practices we will visit different themes taking us closer to our own edges, using Tantric philosophy, somatic movements, myofascial release and sound yet leaving enough space of quiet and stillness.
