About this Event
We are delighted to be collaborating with Live Karma Yoga again in June!
As part of The Big Reshape programme and following the success of the workshop in February, Roots to Change and Live Karma Yoga invite you to join us for a yoga, breath work and meditation workshop on Saturday 22 June 2024 from 2-5pm at Battersea Arts Centre.
This workshop will incorporate gentle chair based yoga, focusing on a deeper connection to our bodies and the wisdom they possess, as well as guided breathing practices and meditation to help establish a greater connection between body and mind while encouraging a sense of calm and ease.
Throughout this workshop and the guided practices, you will be invited to celebrate who you are as an individual whilst welcoming in the beauty of those practicing alongside you.
Together we can incorporate the tools and resources of this workshop to create change in our communities while accepting ourselves and collaborating with others.
Come along to find ways to support your general wellbeing while also fostering connection within your community.
This workshop is free of charge and snacks included. All ages and all genders welcome!
Where: Battersea Arts Centre, Lavender Hill, SW11 5TN
When: Saturday 22 June 2024, 2-5pm
The event will also present an opportunity to have a look at The Big Reshape art installation that features community artwork that imagines a nicer, kinder world, highlights from Roots to Change's research report, suggestions on what we could do individually and collectively to help address the issue and more information about The Big Reshape programme.
This exhibition will be up in Battersea Arts Centre from 3 to 29 June 2024.
About The Big Reshape
The Big Reshape (towards equality) is a community-led programme, facilitated by Roots to Change CIC that aims to influence positive change towards building a fairer and more equal borough where women and girls can live free from harm.
It was designed in response to findings from a research study that Roots to Change facilitated and in which over 150 people participated that pointed to the need for a reshape in how we address violence directed at women and girls.
A need for a reshape in... our understanding of the issue, how we talk about it, the norms that condone it and the systems that support it, our ideas and expectations and relations between people.
The full report can be found here.
