Breathwork Workshop: "Breathe in Edinburgh's Heritage"As part of the Edinburgh 900 anniversary celebrations, join us for a transformative Breathwork Workshop, designed to connect you with the essence of mindful breathing while honoring the rich, diverse cultural heritage of our vibrant city. This 2-hour session will guide participants through the art of conscious breathing, a practice rooted in various cultural traditions across the globe. In this workshop, we will also explore the language of breath, learning different words and terms related to breathing from various cultures. You'll discover how the simple act of pausing to breathe can be a powerful tool in navigating conversations, especially when speaking a language that is not your own. This session will help you cultivate the mindfulness needed to communicate with clarity and calm, bridging linguistic and cultural gaps. Our goal is to create a space where participants from different backgrounds can come together to share and experience the universal power of breath. By engaging in this practice, we celebrate not only Edinburgh's historic 900 years but also the multicultural influences that have shaped our city. Whether you're new to breathwork or a seasoned practitioner, this workshop offers an opportunity to deepen your connection to yourself and others in our community. Let’s breathe together, learn together, and celebrate the unity in our diversity. This FREE workshop is sponsored by Edinburgh Council- Edinburgh 900 Meeting in the studio at 9.45 and then decide if the weather is fine to go to Saughton Park We prioritize our international community in the area of Gorgie-Dalry-Saughton where our studio is based. By attending this class you release the teacher, Giada Gaslini and Art and Spirituality Cic, from any liability arising out of any personal injuries, emotional or physical release, death, expectations of results, theft in the venue or damages that may happen to people and objects while attending.

Yoga Workshop with Tim Cummins Bruton Community Hall Saturday 24th May | 10:30 AM – 12:30 PM You're warmly invited to a two-hour workshop with Tim, exploring what a complete yoga practice can feel like — from movement to stillness, from your outer body to your inner being. If you have any queries prior to booking, please contact Tim: info@TimCumminsYoga.com What to expect: We’ll start with gentle warm-ups to ease the body and get energy flowing—think joint articulation, fascia release, and Sun Salutations. From there, Tim will guide a focused asana (vinyasa) sequence, offering clear instruction and insight into each posture. We’ll wrap up with a calming seated mudra sequence (using simple arm gestures) designed to bring you into a quiet, settled state—leaving you feeling grounded, refreshed, and reconnected. It’s a rich session, and while we’ll only scratch the surface, it’s a great way to get a taste of these elements in a supportive setting.
