Pure Practice London Day Retreat

A day to reconnect and come home to yourself in London! Join us for a day of yoga, community and connection! This is the perfect opportunity to step away from the grind, slow down and give back to yourself.

Our home for the day, Inner Landing is a versatile private wellness space in the heart of North West London. The venue has been remodelled into a Live-Work space combining historical significance with modern industrial design, making it a unique and inspiring location.

You will feel immersed and at home, with neutral earthy tones to drop into the moment. The space is fully equipped with yoga mats and all yoga props so you won’t need to bring a thing! Equipped with state of the art infra-red heating panels, the space ensures a comfortable and inviting atmosphere year-round. With a small serene private garden provides an intimate outdoor oasis for a breath of fresh air.

There is a bathroom, kitchen and dinning room, with some comfy lounges to chill and have a chat during the lunch break. You will feel right at home. The space is used for workshops and teachers from different backgrounds and lineages who share the core beliefs that inclusivity is key and community is everything.

Bring: Please bring a water bottle and small towel. Wear comfortable clothes you can move in and we suggest to bring some warmer clothing and cosy socks for sound healing.

Amy will guide you through long, slow, and deep is one way to describe yin yoga. Postures are low to the ground and are held for longer periods of time to bring stillness and restoration to the body and mind. We believe in the balance, ease, and wholeness that Yin brings to students. There will be time to rest and digest and drop into a state of deep relaxation.

2:00pm – 2:45pm: Sound Healing Journey

Sound healing is the practice of using different sounds and instruments to create a deep connection with yourself, your intuition and improve your emotional well-being. Amy will guide you through sound healing sessions using pure quartz crystal singing bowls, incorporating mediation techniques, and using mantra and intention setting to allow you to dive deep into relaxation. Sound healing baths will be practiced lying down using props to support the body, offering a space to rest, unwind and heal through the frequency of sound.
