Explore mindfulness through poetry with Nana Yaa Adu. A creative, calming workshop for all levels. Find your voice, feel grounded.
About this Event

We are excited to present our Poetry for Wellbeing series, designed to lead you on a mindfulness journey through the medium of writing.

"Silence is part of the enterprise [of poetry] and silence is sacred" – Wendell Berry

Join us for a series of poetry workshops where you will explore your poetic voice through sessions focused on gratitude, breathwork, grounding techniques and seeing life through the eyes of your inner child! Whether you're a beginner or an experienced writer, this workshop is perfect for you if you are looking to explore mindfulness and poetry within a safe and welcoming creative space.

We are delighted to welcome Nana Yaa Adu, a gifted spoken word poet, writer and facilitator whose writing and workshops urge established and budding writers alike to make room for the tenderness which underpins moments of joy, pain and everything in between.


The Royal Foundation of St Katharine is a Retreat and Conference Centre in the heart of East London, founded in 1147.

The majority of our Community Events are on a 'Pay What You Can' basis. There are multiple prices to choose from, and to help you with this decision, we have included a recommended price per ticket which support our charitable activities - you can see more on this here.
