About this Event
This is an afternoon to slow down, turn inward and reconnect with your body, held in a space created exclusively for Black and Brown women.
Through breath, gentle movement, rest and reflection, we’ll make room to listen to what the body has been carrying, release what’s ready to go, and reconnect with the womb space as a place of softness, wisdom and care.
No experience is needed. Everything is offered as an invitation. Move at your own pace and take only what feels right for you.
What to expect
Welcome & intention setting
We’ll open in circle, with each woman setting an intention for her time with us, building a sense of safety, connection and openness from the start.
Grounding, breath & visualisation
A gentle practice to arrive fully in the present moment. We’ll connect with the breath, soften the body and use guided visualisation to turn inward.
Somatic womb yoga
A slow, nourishing movement practice. Through intuitive movement, breath and embodied awareness, you’ll be invited to listen to your body, release tension and reconnect with your womb space.
Relaxation & visualisation
Time to rest deeply and let the body integrate the practice. A guided relaxation to cultivate stillness and softness.
Circle sharing & journaling
We’ll come back together for quiet reflection with journaling prompts, and space to explore anything that came up during the practice. Sharing is always optional.
Closing with tea & connection
We’ll close with a moment of gratitude, then stay a while over a warm cup of tea and gentle conversation.
Who this is for
Black and Brown women, whatever your relationship with your body, your womb or your cycle. You’re welcome whether this is your first time on a mat or you have a regular practice.
What to wear/bring
- Comfortable clothes you can move and rest in
- A journal and pen (paper will also be provided)
- Anything that helps you feel at ease, like a blanket, cushion or water bottle
Mats and tea are provided.
A gentle note
This practice is gentle and adaptable. If you’re pregnant, recovering from surgery, or living with anything that affects how you move, you’re still welcome. Just let us know beforehand so we can support you with options on the day.
