Gut Health workshop with Bella Hookway from Enlivenwellnutrition, Saturday 11th October, 11:30–12:30pm
In this workshop, Bella will cover the gut microbiome, what it is and why it’s so important and how gut health influences hormones, mood, and overall wellbeing. She will share natural remedies, key nutrients, and supplements to support gut balance, along with practical tips to improve digestion and reduce common symptoms like bloating. Bella will also debunk common gut health myths so you know what actually works.
Release & Renew: Breathwork and Reiki for Emotional Healing with Imogen French from Cosmic Flow Healing: Saturday 8th November, 11:30–12:30pm
Ever feel weighed down by old emotions or stuck in a cycle you can’t quite explain? Chances are your energy body is sending you signals. In this workshop, you’ll discover what it really means when emotions get “stuck,” how to spot the warning signs, and simple ways to release that energy so you can feel lighter and freer. We’ll finish with a powerful practice: breathwork to shift stagnant energy, followed by a blissful Reiki-infused relaxation to restore balance and flow.

✓ Strength-focused guide
✓ Training program to continue on your own
✓ Private group chat for connection and accountability
✓ Exclusive Wellbelle tote bag
Program Structure:
Weeks 1-2: Build the Foundations
We will focus on mastering the basics including correct technique and form, foundational sagittal plane movements, and double-leg and double-arm strength exercises performed in a superset format to minimise rest.
Example movements: squats, deadlifts, lunges, hip thrusts, chest presses, bent-over rows, bicep curls, tricep extensions, and shoulder presses.
Weeks 3-8: Progression
Once the basics are established, we will introduce single-leg and single-arm variations, exercises that require more control and stability, and movement through all three planes of motion. We will also provide education on functional strength and injury prevention.
Example movements: lateral lunges, lateral step-ups, curtsy lunges, staggered stance hinges, and single-arm presses with rotation.
Each week builds on the last by introducing new movement variations, tempo changes, range of motion tweaks, and guidance on creating challenge and progression over time. By the end of the program, you’ll feel strong, confident, and capable in the gym, understand key strength training principles, know how to safely progress your own training, and be introduced to the concept of progressive overload - including why strength gains typically begin to show after about six weeks.
