📣 Our next seasonal event is here! *now fully booked*

Friday 11th September, 6-8pm

Join us for this early autumnal celebration at a unique event at the Barn in Banchory hosted by Laura, Lynsey and Vikki. As the sun sets behind the hills of Scolty and Clachnaben, we will welcome the seasonal shift from late summer into early autumn with a nourishing yoga flow followed by an autumnal inspired guided meditation before closing with a blissful sound bath. If weather permits, the yoga and meditation will take place outside in the newly opened beautiful walled garden at the Barn before taking a mindful wander back indoors where the event will close with the blissful sounds of the sound bath within the warmth of the Barn.

In the event of inclement weather, the whole event will take place indoors in the Barn.

For those who’d like to extend the evening with refreshments/food after, we have reserved a space in Buchanan Bistro, next to the Barn.

Booking is now OPEN 🙌
https://gymcatch.com/app/provider/6905/events/9911453

As always at our events, we’ll have a number of fully funded spaces available. If you would like to apply for a funded space, or apply on behalf of someone you know (there is no criteria, just someone who you believe could really benefit from being here), the community space application form is here: https://forms.gle/1zi2wTE6N2DukmJU9

🌸 That's a Wrap for Our Teen Wellbeing Programme 🌸 (for now!)

Tuesday marked the final session of our Teens Programme before we take a break for Summer. During this academic year, we've loved sharing yoga, meditation, sound bath and Pilates with such a lovely group of girls 💛

We hope to be back in the Autumn with more opportunities for the teens to move & relax.
Wishing you all a wonderful and happy summer ☀️ ☺️
