Read more on the day's offerings and learn about your practitioners.
Pilates and Art - Vida Cleland
Starting with an hour of moving, breathing and centring to inspire us, we will explore and design our own Pilates workout based on what felt good, what we enjoyed and the cues that sparked our imagination. Options for colouring in, drawing, or writing will result in a take-home visual reminder of how we love to move.
Workshop with Cards - Bee Watson
Working with Bee's own beautifully designed 'Tarot' cards explore how to discern your own needs for movement, rest and nutrition and how this may change through the shifting seasons.
Moksa Guided Skincare Ritual
A beautiful, restorative skincare experience led by Chloe, founder of Moksa, bringing together her love of natural skincare, Ayurveda and mindful ritual. You will be guided through a slow, sensory facial ritual using Moksa’s natural, organic skincare, from cleansing and warm-cloth therapy to facial massage, Ayurvedic marma points, an Indian Rose Mask and nourishing facial oils.
More than simply skincare, the ritual is an invitation to slow down, breathe, release tension and reconnect with yourself. A chance to step away from everyday life and enjoy some much needed time to pause, be present and feel nurtured.
And, if you fall in love with the products used during your ritual, there’ll be an opportunity to shop the full Moksa collection afterwards with an exclusive retreat discount.

Martha Chester - Prem Studio
I am a Kundalini Yoga teacher and trainer with over 20 years' teaching experience. My yoga practice has led me to train as a trauma-informed Somatic Bodyworker. My motivation is driven by the question "How do I cultivate more peace in each moment?" and this transfers into my teaching and 1-2-1 work. I deliver practical tools for everyday life. I am married and have 2 children.
