The intention behind this work is to offer a space that holds queer people softly and gently, and that enhances self-connection and community connection. We can't get too much of this in the current climate!

If you are LGBTQIA+ and you are curious about making connections and practising more self compassion, then this workshop is for you. All you need to do is come and try it out! The aim is for this space to be playful, non-judgemental, and low pressure. We are co-creating the space together and so we get to decide how it looks to make it work for our diverse minds and bodies. You don’t need to do anything beforehand to prepare and, although there will be lots of opportunities to speak and share our experiences of the exercises, this is never a requirement, and I will be led by you in terms of how much you want to participate. Part of self-compassion is about being able to embrace ourselves in all our messy, human imperfections, and being present with our fears of what it means to be vulnerable.  

The workshops take place at Silk Brighton and are priced at £6 per session, £36 per 6-week block. If you can’t afford it, you are still absolutely welcome to come. When you go through the booking portal enter the code FREE in the discount bar and you’ll be able to book in without paying. For those that have the means, it is very appreciated if you can make a pay it forward donation to support the running of the workshop, and the capacity for people to come for free if they need to. The workshop is not for profit.
