This will help to enable a deeper sense of clarity for you within the workshop, making the work we do even more powerful and beneficial. However don’t worry if you dont have time or space to do this, as there is dedicated time within the event to do this as well.

Does your recovery sometimes take far longer than usual?
Join Olive to explore the different phases of the menstrual cycle (including peri-menopause and post menopause) and learn how to align and support your training during these different phases.
We will cover:
– the different phases of the menstrual cycle and how each can influence performance in training, movement and day to day life

– ⁠we’ll also talk about peri and post menopause and how to navigate some of the changes
It’s for you if:
You are interested in the effects that the menstrual cycle can have on training / movement and you want to put into practices changes that will help you feel healthier, stronger and have more energy.
You will leave the training with clarity on how to maximise your gains, how to balance your energy, how to work with your hormones rather than against them, and how to schedule your training to feel better.

Touching The Bones: Shamanism, Sound & Yoga Workshop
2024-05-04 13:30 - 16:30 | Energy for Life Fitness & Yoga, 75 Sussex Street, Brighton, East Sussex, BN2 0GQ, United Kingdom
Join Joanna for an afternoon of Shamanism, Sound, Yoga and Creativity.
Beginning on the 4 May – the season of Beltane, the threshold of summer – we start our monthly journey into reclaiming our deepest selves.
• Connecting with our body and rebalancing through gentle yet powerful yoga, pranayama and mantra
• Clearing and harmonizing our energy field through the healing sounds of gong, Himalayan and crystal bowls, percussion and voice
• Deepening our connection with Spirit and Nature through traditional Shamanic practices, Celtic mythology, Goddesses and folklore
• Each month we will use creativity, journaling, journeying, art to invite those parts that we have silenced, or perhaps have never known, into the light.

This isn’t therapy but sacred play. Through this process and practices you will be guided to clarity and connection to your beauty and strength as well as exploring and releasing your fears and vulnerabilities.
With Beltane as the focus for this month, we stand in the doorway into the brightest part of the year. Let us fill up with light and fire and energy! Blessing our day with the first draw of spring water we will dream and sow seeds of possibilities for the year ahead. Welcoming warmth and hope from fertile and fiery Brigid, we acknowledge the messages of the wintery crone that is Cailleach saying goodbye for another year. You are welcome to bring offerings for the alter.
“The things that women reclaim are often their own voice, their own values, their imagination, their clairvoyance, their stories, their ancient memories. If we go for the deeper, and the darker, and the less known we will touch the bones.” – Clarissa Pinkola Estés, ‘Women who Run with the Wolves’
These healing sessions are not gender specific, but an opportunity for us all to lead from the feminine, with active support from the masculine. These terms are energy based not gender based. Bringing balance to these energies will support not only us but our families, neighbours and communities, and ultimately, Pacha Mamma, Mother Earth.
In the principle of Ayni – sacred reciprocity – we offer this healing with no expectation of return, giving thanks for all that we have received.
Each session can be experienced as a stand-alone experience, however each month, as we get to know each other, and you become familiar with the practices, you may find yourself going deeper into your healing process.
Please bring with you anything that you need to be comfortable – blanket, socks, water bottle etc
Future Dates: May 25th, June 22nd, July 20th, Break for the Summer, Sept 21, Oct 19, Nov 16, Dec 14
About Me
I have spent my life seeking God and balance within my physical, mental and emotional life. My journey has taken me to many places, both in my outer and interior world, through poor mental health, addiction and recovery, lived and family experience of neuro-diversity and healing family trauma. Along the way I have learnt a lot about myself and the tools I used to help me find this balance and healing. These include Therapeutic Sound (Sound Healing), Shamanic practices including Andean Energy Medicine, Celtic Shamanism and Native American Medicine, Hatha and Kundalini Yoga, breath work, dance, ritual and silence. These tools I am delighted to share with you, your families and our communities, for healing, spiritual expansion, and alignment to the peaceful presence within.
I am currently studying and living the traditions of the Q’ero Indian Medicine Wheel and the Munnay Ki rites with the intention of bringing the power of ceremony and ritual into our communities. I have trained with the College of Sound Healing, the British Academy of Sound Therapy, Don Conreaux, Carolyn Cowan, Ali Rabjohns, Sevanti of Unity Studios, and Deb Dana. I enjoy bringing together the esoteric with science and am passionate about the link between harmonious sound and the Poly Vagal Theory, which explores the interplay between trauma and stress within the body, with anxiety, addiction and lack of social engagement – I am currently researching a PhD on this topic. My TEDx talk on the link between vibrations, harmonious sound and serendipitous moments currently has over 1.9 million views
I live and work in Brighton and London.
About Shamanism
Every country in the world has its own version of Shamanism. Each tradition has its own methods and I am very grateful to have direct lineage training of the Q’ero Indian Shamanic practices, through Ali Rabjohns and Don Augustine in Peru, and Wallace Black Elk through Simon Heather. I have also been influenced by the teachings of Alberto Villoldo, and Caitlin and John Matthews, authorities on Celtic wisdom. I appreciate I am not of the Andean and Native American heritage, and I hope you accept my gratitude in the ability to work with them as I honour their different approaches. All is One x
Mother- Sister, Jaguar. Otorongo
You who help us to own our shadows so we may hold our light,
Help us to reveal our stories, our voice.
Through your strong, clear and clean medicine,
may we transform our suffering and fear into power and life!
Help us to cross the rainbow bridge.
We honour you! Be with us – Ho!

Cacao Group Sound Meditation - Tabather fundraiser
2024-05-10 19:30 - 21:30 | Energy for Life Fitness & Yoga, 75 Sussex Street, Brighton, East Sussex, BN2 0GQ, United Kingdom
Initially this event was set to be a very special collaboration between Tabather, Craig (an amazing Handpan musician and sound therapist) and Luca Selvaggi (a very special soul and percussionist based in Malta). However, it’s now changed into something even more special! Tabather’s hip surgery has been brought forward and unbeknown to Tabather her friends wanted to show their generous support and run the event as a fundraiser for her. To honour and support Tabather’s healing moment as she will need to pause from her regular offerings.
This will be a beautiful event based in appreciation and support. Romi shall be opening the ceremony with Cacao for all, and then Luca and Craig will be curating a gorgeously replenishing sound session.
Everything raised shall be given to Tabather aiding her during her recovery time.
Click the link below to be directed to Craig’s website and scroll down for the “Tabather fundraiser Cacao Group Sound Meditation 10th May”
Additionally, a direct donation link has been set up for those who either wish to donate more than their ticket, or cannot make the session but would still like to support. You can find the link at the bottom of the same page.

Yoga Arm Balances and Handstand Practice: Fundamentals and Play
2024-07-07 14:00 - 16:00 | Energy for Life Fitness & Yoga, 75 Sussex Street, Brighton, East Sussex, BN2 0GQ, United Kingdom
Join Charlie for this immersive workshop, offering you a sequence integrating arm balances, and handstand practice. Expect to build your experience and confidence in these poses, with fun and encouragement.
In this session, we will warm through the body, with a specially designed sequence to access the fullness of your strength and flexibility, focusing on the areas you’ll need to access arm balances and handstands. From there, we’ll be exploring arm balances and some inversions with different methods and options so that you build your confidence and feel encouraged, whatever your previous experience. Yoga is after all, always about little shifts and exploration.
You can expect the session to look like this:
Tuning into the body: warming through the back muscles and spine, whilst providing some space in the hips, as foundations for the arm balances.
Arm balance play: woven through this practice, we’ll encounter different arm balance postures, linking together into a sequence to help you develop from one to the next, with plenty of options.
Turning your perspective upside down: from head stand possibilities (optional, with specific stages) to cultivating your handstand practice. This will be a great way to experiment, safely, with the shared energy in the studio. Everyone will be encouraged and supported from where they are in their practice.
Deep savasana: to relax and provide space for all your practice to be integrated into your body. Leaving feeling refreshed, and inspired for your future practices.

Deep rest: Yin and Restorative Yoga for the Autumn Equinox
2024-09-20 19:30 - 21:30 | Energy for Life Fitness & Yoga, 75 Sussex Street, Brighton, East Sussex, BN2 0GQ, United Kingdom
Join Charlie for an immersive yin and restorative yoga workshop, where you can delve deeper into the layers of rest and replenishment. Expect to be held through postures where you can really allow the body and mind to rest, helping you to recharge and ground.
We will begin with some very gentle stretching, to help create a fluidity in mind and body, before moving into the deeper space of yin yoga postures, with the support of bolsters, blankets, and blocks. Providing the opportunity to release tension in the key areas around the hips, back and shoulders, a whole body and mind experience.
With all the expectations placed on us in society, this will be the perfect opportunity to connect with your deeper capacity for rest, nourishing the nervous system in a calming environment. This creates space for a holistic stretch and release through the muscles, connective tissues and joints.
The postures will be offered in various options, so this workshop is for everyone, from beginners to people who practice yoga regularly.
Charlie is thoughtful and mindful of people’s bodies and experience and will guide you along the way. He believes it is often the paradox of change that is most resonant: that we don’t need to become more or do more, but often we deserve to allow layers to fall away, to rediscover a truer sense of ourselves. A beautiful way to pause and find peace in the modern world.

Responses can be wide ranging from deeply relaxing; to the release of trauma, grief and anger; to a connection to the divine and feelings of bliss and euphoria. Whatever your experience during the breathwork, the ultimate outcome is insightful understanding and greater access to feelings of peace and comfort.
“Amazing experience! It was held so beautifully in a very professional but loving way. I felt really safe and had a very profound experience.”
Each session includes some mindful movement to help us sense into our body and release any tightness. We will then proceed to a 1 hour psychedelic breathwork journey and finish with some grounding healthy snacks and an option to share our amazing experience with others.
“A fantastic insight into how something as simple as breathing can have a deep healing effect on the physical, mental and emotional bodies. Jasmine is clear and focussed and completely present, creating a very safe and expertly-held environment.”

Please note, time of event is 7.15-10.15pm
Love the feeling of freedom you get from dancing but you’re after something more wholesome and soul enriching than the normal night out? Then this one is for you.
Join Tabather and Kasia on an evening of discovery as you travel through the elements in this ceremonial cacao, conscious dance and healing gong bath evening, which will take you on a journey into the heart.
Beginning with a ceremonial cacao ceremony, a gentle dose of this heart medicine will be the perfect opening to the dance. Kasia will expertly guide you to move your body, inviting curiosity to express yourself freely. Through gentle guidance you will first awaken to the element of Ether within. Then this will transform into Air, then Earth, into Fire, into Water, and finally dancing back into the new quality of Ether. Together these 5 elements make up the entire Universe and form the fabric of your inner world. Each element becomes a different stage of moving into the heart. Afterwards gently rest and receive the healing sound of the Gong delivered by the beautifully intuitive Tabather.

“Kasia & Tabather’s unique offerings complimented one another beautifully. The event was held in devotion and intention which helped me connect to what was alive in me with ease and grace. I noticed profound changes the following day at work when I managed to do something I’ve not been able to do ever before! Which I really wasn’t expecting! The evening had a similar effect as that of a really juicy therapy session which then got me thinking what incredible value! Thank you both so much ❤️”
“Tabather and Kasia’s into the heart evenings are amazing. They create and hold such a safe space that allows me to express myself in a way that feels powerful and liberating without fear of any consequence from this. It is a perfect blend of playfulness, authentic connection and grounding that makes it such a nourishing evening. All the little touches including opening and closing circles and the immersive sound bath at the end help to build that sense of connection and safety. My favourite ecstatic dance in Brighton 💛”

Shakti Magick: Cacao, Shakti Dance, Gong
2025-11-07 19:00 - 22:00 | Energy for Life Fitness & Yoga, 75 Sussex Street, Brighton, East Sussex, BN2 0GQ, United Kingdom
Join Tabather and Jo for a journey through the senses supported by gentle guidance and the heart opening medicine of organic Ceremonial Cacao, Sacred Sounds, Shakti Dance and the pulse of the Gongs.
An evening of discovery and exploration, coming home to the home within your own body and the sensations you feel whilst held in the container of the group energy.
We will begin with a short ritual of ceremonial cacao, drinking a gentle dose of this heart opening plant medicine. Then you will be guided to move into the Yoga of Dance combining creative movement, breathwork and sound to connect to your inner knower, your being, your soul. A way to tune into your own creativity and to release blockages that may be held within the mind, body and heart. To activate a new way of opening to the language of your body and your whole being. We will finish laying down, resting and receiving the vibrational sound of the Gongs to integrate your experience and end with a closing circle.
