deep rest : yin & nidra
slow, passive, soothing
A peaceful evening of mindful meditation, soothing yin yoga and deep guided relaxation.
Yin is a slow, and passive introspective practice that works with time and gravity rather than effort to target the deeper connective tissues of the body and bring about a sense of calm and deep release to both the body and mind.
We’ll close with spiced chai, tasty treats and wholesome chats.
NEXT EVENT: 7-9pm Fri 2nd Oct & Fri 30th Oct

Session will involve a short talk, group discussion and a 60-minute breath-led yoga practice.
NEXT EVENTS: 10-12pm Sun 11th October
£18PP
meditation & sound bath
Join Julie for a soulful, heart-led evening of meditation, mantra and music.
Through simple, powerful chants, we'll create space to unwind, connect, and experience the shared energy of voices coming together, accompanied by the sweet sounds of harmonium and drum.
All welcome, no experience needed. Booking essential.
NEXT EVENT: 7-9pm, Fri 16th October

ashtanga workshop
deepening your practice
A 4-hour workshop to work through the full Primary Series with care and precision and hands-on assists (if wanted) to help you refine alignment, breath, and awareness.
Alongside the physical (asana) practice, we'll turn inward with a discussion on the Yamas and Niyamas - the ethical foundations of our yoga practice, exploring how these ancient principles can deepen and enhance your practice both on and off the mat.
Whether you're working on a particular posture, building stamina in your Primary Series or seeking a richer understanding of yoga's roots, this workshop offers space to break things down, ask questions, and deepen your connection to the practice.
NEXT EVENT: 12-4pm Sat 24th Oct
Kay King
£30PP
live rhythms
free movement with live band
Join the first ‘Live Rhythms’ band in North Devon, and flow to an elemental dance movement inspired by Gabrielle Roth’s 5Rhythms.
As Samhain approaches - when the veil is thin - we honour the departed and our ancestors through free dance and movement.
Come and move with us at Shanti Yoga & Wellness Space in Bideford, as we take you through a carefully facilitated mindful dance session, then gather in circle.
NEXT EVENT: 7-9pm Sat 24th Oct.

ashtanga basics
and intro for beginners
Kay will guide you through a breakdown of the Primary Series, taking time to explain each posture and its purpose so you can build a solid, sustainable foundation right from the start.
Expect plenty of modifications and options to suit different bodies and ability levels, along with lots of space for questions.
This workshop is designed to demystify the practice and help you feel confident and supported as you begin your journey.
Whether you're brand new to Ashtanga or have dabbled and want to solidify your basics, this is a relaxed, welcoming and inclusive introduction.
Perfect for beginners - no prior Ashtanga experience necessary.
