At the heart of our work is holding space.

We run specialised yoga classes and courses for women and non-binary people who have experienced domestic abuse and gender-related harm. We also offer classes for people who have experienced marginalisation.

Our classes are held in community spaces and we also collaborate with charities and local services to offer classes and workshops as part of their client/member support.

Our classes are also suitable for people who are on waiting lists for services or for those that no longer receive specialised support but still wish to attend a class that feels respectful of their lived experience. A trauma-informed ethos is embedded in all our classes.

Please note that some classes are by referral only. This will be clearly marked on the timetable.

Please check the Events for all our current events.

Dāna - ‘cultivating generosity’

Dāna (दानम्) is a Sanskrit and Pali word that describes the practice of generosity. Our Dāna Classes are for the public and we welcome all movers and practitioners to join.

We consider this a profit-for-purpose endeavour. All profits raised go directly back into our Community Yoga Programme so communities that need wellbeing practices can access them without financial constraint.

Please check the Events page for upcoming classes.

We work with and for the community.

We collaborate with community organisations and local services to deliver trauma-informed classes as an adjunct to therapeutic support or as a holding space while people are waiting to access services.

We’re proud to have worked with established organisations in London and have a continued relationship with North London Rape Crisis.

If you are a programme coordinator for a charity or non-profit that supports people impacted by domestic abuse or gender-related harm, please get in touch.

We support yoga teachers, people facilitating wellness spaces and support workers in caring professions.

We offer resources such as Yoga Assist Tokens and training to yoga teachers, yoga studios and yoga teacher-training courses on how to integrate a trauma-aware ethos into general yoga classes.

We also offer trainings to people in helping professions such as counsellors, therapists, teachers or clinical staff on how to integrate yoga and body-based practices in the support toolbox.
