Move Deeper with
Nikola Magerkorth
Sunday 22nd November
3pm - 5pm
$55
Join Nik for a deeply moving two-hour practice beneath the palms, as spring gives way to summer.
We’ll begin with a strong, flowing practice to build heat, open the body and move with breath. Then we will slow right down to receive. Longer holds, stillness, breath. Time to soften and let go.
A practice that asks a little more of you, then gives you the space to settle.
Set beneath the palms at Bali Garden, this is a chance to step away from the pace of everyday life and move deeper into your practice - leaving you feeling grounded, open and reconnected with yourself.
Light refreshments will be offered. Suitable for all levels. Come as you are.

When women come together in community real magic happens.
If you’re looking for a place where you can have some breathing room and get to heal in a space without judgement, join us for our women’s circles.
In this space we use transformational breathing to open up our bodies and move any stuck energy that might be keeping us from moving forward and attaining our goals.
Monthly Men’s Breathwork with
Jonno Roberts
LAST WEDNESDAY OF EVERY MONTH
Next session: Wednesday 25th November
6pm - 7pm
$25 (or use your Bali Garden Membership)
This deceptively simple breathing medicine is as transformative and healing as you are ready for it to be.
You will learn to create a warm and supportive relationship to your inner self, and through this you will enable your inner voice to grow away from judgement and disapproval into wisdom and acceptance.
This inner work will ignite your creativity and your deep intuition, and peel off layers of conditioning and programming that inhibit your compassion, growth and forward movement.
Sound Bath Healing with Jazmyn Green from
Soul Overtones
Friday 27th November 2026
6.30pm- 7.30pm
$40
Join Jaz for a Sound Bath Healing, where you will nourish mind, body and soul through the healing powers of sound and vibration.
In the womb, the first sense we develop is hearing. We are soothed by the heartbeats of our mothers, a constant, resonant drum. Our entire body is receptive to sound vibrations, it is just our ears that can process and interpret them. So, when we work with sound in the healing capacity, it is not just being received via the ears, but via the entire body. Every ripple finds the most resonant home in the receiver, wherever their system needs it most.
Sound Healing can help with stress, tension, mental or learning disorders, sleep issues, migraines, chronic pain, trauma, among many other things.
Sound healing can simply be a chance to relax on a deeper level, or it can be a chance to experience profound mental, emotional and physical healing. You may fall asleep, you may feel tearful, you may feel extreme happiness, you may journey to another place and time. Regardless of how you experience a sound bath, the healing work is being done.
During the session, you will simply lay down and listen/feel. A variety of therapeutic instruments including but not limited to crystal bowls, Tibetan bowls, a drone harp, drums, and chimes will be used.

Crystal Sound Bowl Journey with
Anna Coventry
Sunday 29th November 2026
10.30am - 11.30am
This sound journey is a sanctuary of relaxation, healing and wellbeing.
We begin with gentle breathwork and a guided visualisation to help you feel grounded, embodied and receptive. As the vibrations from the crystal bowls wash over you, they will help you to effortlessly let go of thinking, release tension, and guide your nervous system into a state of deep relaxation and nourishing rest.
Some people float into a meditative state, others drift off to sleep, and some stay quietly aware. It's common to sleep deeply the evening following a sound bath, as the frequencies stay with you even after the session ends.
We usually practice lying down in a comfortable, supported position, though you're welcome to be seated if you prefer. We have plenty of props, blankets and eye pillows for your comfort.
Please wear warm clothes and cosy socks, as the body cools during relaxation.
All levels are welcome; no prior experience is needed.
Please note: This event is non-refundable. If you're unable to attend, you're welcome to gift your place to a friend.
