    Guided by Creative Psychotherapist Imogen Pearce. This creative psychotherapy group, is a supportive, welcoming space for Mothers to reconnect with their own needs, wants and desires, away from caretaking responsibilities.

    The intention of the group is to allow space and exploration through creative approaches to therapy, such as embodied practices, art expression, small object work, play and discussion.

    Other themes may arise through-out the sessions and I will follow the lead of where the group needs to go.

    Attendance to a therapy assessment with myself is required before booking onto the group.

    Book with Caroline Reid

    Caroline teaches a heart-warming yoga class, suitable for a wide range of bodies; young, old, flexible or stiff. Discover an approach that is both gentle and deep. You’ll be guided to move slowly, explore and get to know your body. This yoga works with the intelligence of the body, with an emphasis on un-doing and organising movement from the spine outwards.

    Yoga poses unfold with less effort this way.
    This approach is inspired by Vanda Scaravelli (author of ‘Awakening The Spine’). Caroline has been developing and teaching this yoga since 2002.

  • 10am - 11am Mondays

    Pilates is a holistic form of exercise and my classes focus not only on strengthening the body as a whole, but also on the effect that Pilates can have on the mind, bringing an inner-awareness and sense of well-being to the practitioner. Exercises are mainly based around small controlled movements and the belief that it is better to perform two repetitions of an exercise correctly, than twenty repetitions incorrectly.

    Students will experience increased strength, stability and muscle tone as well as better coordination, balance, improved mind-body awareness, and the release of stress and tension.

    For booking and more info.

    • The science of vibration, resonance and therapeutic sound
