Rise & Shine with Niki (in-person or online)
8.30-9.20am Tuesday mornings (50 mins)
Kickstart your day with this class by working with your body & breath. A physical practice that focuses on strength, flexibility, breath and balance through static or linked poses, mandala flows, and challenging ‘peak pose’ flows to bring you into your bodies and onto your mats, leaving you blissfully energized and ready for your day. In-person or online.
$15-25 (BIPOC - pay what you can)
Yin-Restore with Niki (in-person or online)
6-7.30pm Wednesday evenings (90 mins)
A Yin/ Restorative practice that uses props & longer holding poses to stimulate the ‘relaxation response’. I aim to hold space for folks and guide them to play with their edge, release control and let gravity do the work. Join in-person or online. A link to the online class will be sent once you register.

Connect to your creative spirit at Vocal Tapestry - a safe and fun space to weave together the principles of spontaneous composition, such as rhythm, melody, and dynamics. Each week, we will play games and learn practices that focus on a specific element of vocal improvisation to develop your awareness, skills, and confidence.
Facilitated by Jules Pashall and Scarlet Tunkl, this retreat will explore and celebrate the magic of being present and embodied with fatness in community with other fat folx. We will use touch, movement, noise making and creative play to experience the sensuality inherent in our fat tissue. This retreat will uplift fatness as more than just a descriptor of bodies, but as an energy and access point to sensual presence. Each activity will pull inspiration from the formal qualities of fat: soft, lush, velvety, deep, full, whole. This retreat will have a special focus on touch so that we can learn new things about how we like to be loved, touched and tended.

Join Deep Listening® facilitators, Katie Down and Jane Rigler for this immersive, inclusive and fun 8-week series that offers specific Deep Listening® methods and practices cultivated by their mentor and friend, Pauline Oliveros.

This Body-Mind Centering® retreat will offer an introduction to the organs through the practices of vocalization and contact improvisation. We will explore the principles and qualities of the organs, celebrate the deep visceral knowledge in our bodies, and unwind any holding or tension in our organs.

Join us for a Summer solstice workshop celebrating embodiment, community, and creative expression. In this 4-hour workshop, participants will experience the power of somatics, an intentional change process by which we realize transformation, individually and collectively. Our practice will invite the softening of bodies and breath while staying rooted and engaged with the present moment. Through this work, we will consider and embody new ways of being together in liberation and care.

Calling all performers and creators, to build site-specific installations in forest, water, and open field. Not just structures, but physical invitations: bodies will build, lift, crawl, balance – the installation will remember those gestures. Later, the public will walk through and re-experience those very movements.
