About this Event

Summer and the Fire Element: The Season of Expression and Connection

The Five Elemental Workshop Series is a seasonal programme of five workshops, each rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine, exploring the Five Elements - Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water. Throughout these series we delve into the benefits of living harmoniously with the seasons and why the way we inhabit our bodies and our spaces matters.

The Element of the summer season - Fire

During this workshop we will explore what the Fire Element asks of the body, how to move with it rather than against it, and how to sustain that inner spark during the summer months. You will walk away nourished and renewed, with tools and simple practices to carry you forward.

This workshop will cover:

Flavours of the season; tea offering
The Fire Element; Connection, joy & authentic expression
Qigong - combining gentle movement with rhythmic breathing
Demonstration of key pressure points keeping our Fire in balance and how to use them to promote balance, allowing thriving during the Summer season
Reflection, setting intention & guided meditation

Please note that no prior knowledge of TCM or acupuncture is assumed or needed from participants. These workshops are designed for people who are curious about living more seasonally and with intention.

Participants will also take home a gift bag including:

An acupressure pen
Acu seeds
Scent of the season - Homework fragrant
A booklet and pen.

Preparation:

Participants will work from yoga mats throughout the session, with a combination of seated and standing exercises taking place over the course of the workshop. Adjustments and alternative setups can be provided to ensure the experience is accessible and comfortable for everyone attending. We suggest you wear loose, comfortable clothing.

Location:

Studio Kumari is located in the West End, a 3 mins walk from Kelvinhall Subway Station or a 10 mins walk from Partick train station. On-street parking will be free of charge as the event is taking place on a Sunday.
