About this Event

YEAH LOVE! BODY LOVE!

HAPPY NUDE YEAR! We're back, with another gorgeous collaborative workshop to welcome in 2025 in community, and with care and celebration for our incredible bodies!

Yeah Love Body Love is a bumper special edition workshop, led by life drawing and body positivity enthusiasts, Rosy, from , and empowerment guide,

Alis will lead us through a sensual and joyful, body-loving gentle yoga and movement practice with an awesome soundtrack. You are welcome to join naked, in your underwear, in something sensual, or just comfy clothes whatever feels comfortable to you. This body-loving journey will get us feeling grounded, playful, joyful and feeling brave in our bodies, the perfect preparation for Body Love Sketch Club. This practice is suitable for everyone, experienced yogis and absolute beginners alike. You are welcome to join from the mat or a chair.

Body Love Sketch Club is a life drawing class with a twist... Since 2016, we have been running workshops in which you can pose as well as draw Body Love Sketch Club is a life drawing class with a twist, in which you can pose as well as draw (fully nude, fully clothed, or anywhere in between!), whilst we explore ways of accepting ourselves more unconditionally, and expressing ourselves more freely. Our workshops are an artistic adventure in body positivity and creative empowerment, a joyful and tender tonic to feeling disconnected from each other and ourselves, a celebration of bodies in all their (optionally naked) glory, and a place for creative play without shame or judgment.

No experience necessary! All bodies, shapes, abilities, genders, ages and confidence levels are welcome.

THE GOLDEN RULE...

We have one main rule and it's 'be f*cking lovely!' This means that inclusivity, safety, respect, confidentiality, and consent are fundamental principles of the session and that all attendees are expected to uphold them. The organisers reserve the right to ask anyone to leave should their behaviour be deemed to be inappropriate.

TESTIMONIALS FROM PREVIOUS ATTENDEES...

"Today I got to experience human connection, compassion, creativity, kindness, vulnerability, and nakedness in an environment free of shame, guilt, judgement and stigma. The incredible Rosy and Ruby are the funniest and friendliest people and their passion for what they do is so tangible.'

"Alis's workshops are a beautifully guided exploration of connecting with the body in a celebratory, loving way"

"Thank you for this morning's session. It's the first time I'd done anything like this, and I found the whole experience so welcoming and positive and inclusive. What an amazing space you've created - thank you so much - hope to see you again soon."

"Alis's workshop flowed beautifully from start to finish, I left feeling like I was glowing from the inside out"

"A life drawing class like no other where everybody is truly good enough and the only goal is to love the bodies you see and love the way you draw them, however that may be."

"Wearing my underwear was surprisingly freeing and fun especially when dancing to Alis's badass playlist"

"You do so much more than help people with their body image, you help in healing the past and building a wondrously naked and confident future."
