Relax, Release, Restore with Suzie Keogh, Sunday 18th 2.30 - 4.30pm

Join Suzie for a lazy Sunday morning of uncurling and unfurling …
This workshop is an invitation to drop deep into the body space, ground into stillness and allow some of the layers of tension and holding to soften. Through myofascial unwinding and core integration work, you'll explore the body's capacity to release, reorganise and reconnect with its deeper support.
A little space to breathe, settle, restore and come home to the body.
