Workshops

Hi I’m Amy and I love practicing yoga and guiding others in their yoga practice through group teaching and one-to-one therapy. Commitment to my practice has helped me manage challenging times in my life; from injuries to pregnancy to loss/grief. Yoga always helps me to feel better in my body and mind by relieving physical and mental tension. 

For me, yoga is the antidote to the pressure and expectations of modern living, it’s a magical coping mechanism that can be deeply healing and fun. I feel stronger and more open, I make healthier decisions, I’m a more patient person and parent, a better listener, and I’m more compassionate, understanding and accepting towards myself and others. 

My experience calls me to share this ancient wisdom with others so you too can become more able and resilient. Together we explore movement, breath-work, mantra and meditation practices that will reestablish our connection to the Earth and our physical bodies, allowing us to build trust, and feel lighter, more spacious and at ease.  The benefits are truly limitless and unique to each person.

In a world of swipes, small talk, and surface-level interactions, what does it really mean to meet someone? To see them, to feel them, and to connect in a way that is deeply authentic and alive?

Awakened Dating is a transformative and experiential journey into the art of conscious connection. This workshop invites participants to step beyond the limitations of traditional dating and into a space where attraction, intimacy, and presence are explored through the body, the senses, and the heart.

Drawing on Tantric principles, embodiment practices, and authentic relating, this session will guide attendees through a series of exercises designed to cultivate:

 Deep Presence – Learning to meet another from a place of openness and truth.
Embodied Attraction – Moving beyond the mind to feel connection through energy and intuition.
Playfulness & Curiosity – Engaging with lightness, joy, and a spirit of exploration.
Sacred Intimacy – Discovering what it means to be fully seen and fully received.

This is not about speed-dating, performance, or forced interactions. It is about real, soulful connection—whether for romance, friendship, or a moment of shared presence.

Perfect for singles, couples, and the curious, this workshop offers a safe and heart-opening space to explore love, chemistry, and relational alchemy in a whole new way.

Why This Workshop?

As we are here in celebration of love, freedom, and deep human connection, Awakened Dating perfectly aligns with our ethos, creating a container where we can experience the beauty of relating from a place of truth, joy, and embodiment.

This session is an invitation to rediscover the magic of connection, beyond words, beyond expectations, beyond the ordinary.

Are you ready to meet yourself and others in a way you never have before?

Let’s create something beautiful together. 

 Come join us for a 2 hour plus taster course in spoon carving that will guide you through the safe use of tools needed to carve a spoon. I have a variety of different tools to choose from to help you decide on what tools fit for you if you choose to continue learning.

Participants need to be 14 years and older, if there are issues such as attention etc. adult supervision will be needed.

I'll also demonstrate the bits we don't have time to cover such as axing and sharpening tools so you get a complete picture of the whole process start to finish.

This workshop will have material costs 

Voice workshop with S-J

We have S-J back again offering us an opportunity to use our main power instrument within us- our voice, to balance, align and harmonise ourself and eachother.

S-J will first get us to tune into our chakras using our voice and then adding the spirit drum within the circle to blend the two to give us a powerful healing experience to replenish or release, soothe and balance our energy system.

Followed by singing our favourite folk, truth, freedom, uplifting unity songs, some Accapella and with background music.

Some percussion instruments will be provided however feel free to bring drums or percussion instruments with you.
