In this insightful workshop you’ll learn how to tap into your brain’s neural circuits in a new and profound way, helping you to achieve an alert mind in a relaxed body – the optimum state of being.

Mindful Movement is an alternative approach to Mindfulness that uses the moving body as the primary meditative tool – making it one of the easiest and most powerful ways to integrate Mindfulness into your everyday life.

Discover how to:
- Practice Mindfulness anytime, anywhere
- Master your own mind through movement

More About the Workshop:
A unique blend of Mindfulness, Martial Arts practices and neuroscience, this workshop explores the fascinating links between Mindfulness, movement and the brain. Led by neuroscientist and leading Mindfulness expert Dr. Tamara Russell, it includes a mix of theoretical knowledge and pioneering meditation exercises.

Perfect for:
- Busy people who struggle to find time to practice
