ABOUT OUR CLASS

Join our tutor, Amanda Wagstaffe, for guided, mindful walks through the woods. We'll slow down, tune into our senses, and really notice the world around us. These walks are not just for physical health, but mental health as well. Join us for fun conversation and a little bit of exercise!

What's it all about?

Unplug and unwind: Leave the stress of daily life behind as you immerse yourself in the tranquillity of the woods.
Reconnect with nature: Feel the earth beneath your feet, listen to the birdsong, and breathe in the fresh, clean air.
Practice mindfulness: Learn simple techniques to bring your awareness to the present moment, reducing anxiety and boosting your overall well-being.
Gentle movement: Enjoy a leisurely walk that's suitable for all fitness levels. No need to be an athlete – just come as you are!
Connect with others: Share this peaceful experience with like-minded people in a supportive and welcoming environment.

Think of it as a little gift to yourself. A chance to recharge, reconnect, and come away feeling refreshed, grounded, and ready to face whatever life throws your way.

Please wear suitable shoes and clothing for the weather and terrain.
