A Journey of Connection

About the workshop

Join Jack from Bear & Bird at the Yoga Garden, Knepp Estate, for a morning dedicated to presence, stillness, and reconnection. This three-hour workshop brings together the heart-opening qualities of cacao, the cleansing power of breathwork, the grounding flow of Qi Gong, and the depth of immersive meditation. Held in the sanctuary of the yurt and, if the weather allows, in the wild beauty of Knepp, this is an invitation to soften the mind, restore balance in the body, and open fully to the quiet wisdom within.

A short break halfway with tea and light snacks Some of the practices will be held in the yurt, while others may take place outside depending on the weather, making use of Knepp’s natural surroundings - please bring suitable outdoor clothing and footwear. Suitable for all.. no prior experience of Qi Gong or breathwork needed.
