Yes, all the workshops and classes are suitable for beginners. The yoga classes are flow and Yin. There will also be options for more experienced students wanting a challenge. The meditation workshops are mindfulness meditation - a simple, secular style suitable for all levels using attention regulation techniques to train your mind to  be present and focussed. The labyrinth meditation is a walking meditation used to quiet the mind, connect with the intuition and release thoughts and emotions for great clarity. The sound healing is a relaxing meditation to the sound of crystal bowls and other vibrational instruments. All equipment is supplied for all the meditations.  

A fire ceremony is an opportunity to release any thoughts, emotions, habits or patterns of behaviour.
