Jane is a shamanic healer, yoga teacher and author. A focus that is both global and hyper local brings community, communication and co creation to the core of what she does. Jane explored the world as a travel and wellbeing author of books and articles before a feeling of being lost from herself consumed her.

A mother, and now an elder and am passionate about our connection to our earth and ourselves. I love to support people thrive and fully embody their lives, living from the place of heart, love, compassion and connection. I have worked as a nurse, an academic, a hospice educator, a death doula and celebrant. I love holding ceremony and facilitating circles. I have recently been part of a group setting up an intentional home education community and am finally at the age of 70 learning to play again.

A self-taught musician, Sol (formerly known as Pete York) learnt to play guitar and bass in his teens. He quickly found a passion for music and moved from London to Brighton looking for musical direction. Sol has always intuitively followed his heart and the journey that unfolded before him was everything he could of imagined and more!

A Space 2 Breathe brings together everything Sol has learnt along the way, the healing power of sound, discovered through his love of music, his ability to connect with others, to teach and inspire. Guiding others to connect with their hearts, find the joy and abundance of living an authentic, heart-felt life, filled with passion, possibility and potential.

Join Vaughan for a workshop combining movement, sound and breath as tools to bring us to a place of deeper self awareness and self compassion.

Our goal is to bring you into a deep sense of embodiment and connection to self, leading to a healthier mind, body and soul.

Feel alive in your body and connect with nourishing energy through lush movement, mindful breathing and meditation.

This involves chanting a set of ‘seed’ sounds to correspond with our seven main chakras, up to 12 times each; expanding our diaphragms and exploring our 5 litre lung capacity.

We'll discuss more about the role of our chakras and notice if our chanting differs from one chakra to another and what this reveals.

Extraordinarily fun… If you get tired, you can lie down and enjoy it as a sonic massage! No pressure.

Shamanic healing is a powerful practice helping you regain balance and harmony. Louise channels energy using hands-on techniques whilst incorporating sound healing.

The sound healing practised by Louise has its roots in both Celtic and Taoist healing forms, combining sound tones and breath. The healing sessions work on your energy fields - physical, emotional, mental and spiritual, helping to release blocks and allowing you to re-integrate and re-balance these different energetic states.
