Accessibility & Inclusivity Note;
This workshop all takes place on the ground floor with toilets, and wheelchair access. There is no on site parking, but plenty of roads nearby with free parking (please check for parking restrictions).
​
Chairs are available and the movement practice can take place sitting down. This is an invitation to move in a way that feels safe and available to you.​
Join Sophie Rey for an explorative Somatic Yoga & Art Workshop to brighten your soul, connect to your body and breath and explore your creative side in a safe, welcoming environment.
​
Sophie will guide you through a gentle Somatic Yoga practice, helping you connect to your body with compassion, and find joy in movement, followed by a short guided meditation to help create a calm and receptive state of being, encouraging more clarity and imagination; very much needed for making art. You can choose to lie down or sit up in a chair.
​
Finally, brighten up your soul & connect to your creative side with a colourful and expressive art session; which includes watercolour paints, oil pastels and collage. Sophie will guide you through some initial warm up practices, providing tips and techniques, and will encourage you to try out a few different materials. You will then have the opportunity to create your own Summer Solstice inspired affirmation card!
​
