Light on Your Feet: Releasing the Spine for Effortless Walking

2 Hour Saturday Afternoon Workshop on Saturday 16th May

Do you ever feel like your legs are "heavy" or your stride has lost its spring? Often, the secret to free-moving legs isn’t in the muscles of the thighs—it’s in the spine.
What to Expect:
In this somatic movement workshop designed specifically for those 50+, we will explore the organic connection between your back and your hips. By gently releasing the deep tension held in the spinal column, we "unplug" the restrictions in the lower body.
The Result:
* Discover a smoother, more fluid gait.
* Reduce hip and lower back discomfort.
* Learn how to let your spine support your legs so walking feels like a breeze again.

Sacred Stillness - A Journey into profound rest - Full day retreat

A beautiful collaboration from Ania, Claire & Aleksandra

Ania's Offering

Slow-paced, mindful yoga, breath awareness, and quiet reflection, we’ll explore sacred stillness .
This is not about striving or doing, but about being: noticing, allowing, and cultivating sacred peace from within.
Together, we will:
• Move with intention and tenderness
• Rest deeply in guided relaxation
• Practice presence and inner listening
• Reconnect with our inner wisdom
• Returning home to ourselves
No experience is needed—just an open heart and a willingness to slow down.
Come as you are. Leave with a little more peace ✌️ ”

Claires Offering

Are you constantly feeling stressed, anxious, or just "on edge"?

Dive with us into the autonomic nervous system, the quiet conductor of our body's most essential rhythms: breath, digestion, and heartbeat. It's also our built-in alarm system, helping us sense and respond to danger. In its healthy state, it's a nimble system, reacting to stress then gracefully guiding us back to equilibrium.

Yet, for those who've walked through early trauma or prolonged stress, this intricate system can become trapped. It gets "locked" in survival mode, endlessly cycling between fight, flight, and freeze. When this happens, vital energy and resources are tragically siphoned away from critical functions like digestion, immunity, and even the very repair of our cells.

Understand and explore Sensory Motor Amnesia (When the brain ‘forgets how to fully relax or properly control certain muscles, leading to chronic tension and movement restrictions)
Gently guide your body out of survival mode
Reclaim vital energy for healing and wellbeing

Followed by lunch and some free time.

In the afternoon Ania will offer self massage techniques from a seated position
Followed by Claire offering a seated somatics practice to give you practical tools to take away.

We will end the day with a sound bath in the Church with the lovely Aleksandra.

Sink into a blissful Sound Bath experience with Aleksandra from www.positivefaithhopelove.com in Norwich.
Tibetan singing bowls, crystal bowls, and other instruments create a symphony of healing vibrations. Let the waves wash over you, clearing blockages and inviting deep relaxation.
Your spirit will thank you.
