Can you be a Building Babies Brains Champion in Torbay?

This free series of workshops provides an opportunity to come together with like-minded people in the local community to learn the user friendly science behind what babies and toddlers need from us to build strong and resilient brains. Our building babies brain champions tell us they gain more skills and confidence in passing on key messages to carers and love the ethos that ‘It takes a village to grow a child’.

There are 5 Face to Face sessions on 16th May, 23rd May, 13th June, 27th June and 18th July 2024, and there are 2 Group Online sessions on 30th May and 20th June 2024. Sessions 1-6 are 1.00pm – 3.00pm and Session 7 is from 1.00pm – 1.45pm.

We are delighted to be bringing Park Yoga to Torbay again.  It promises to be fun & yet enlightening whilst guided by science beginning on the 5th of May 2024.
(look out for the Park Yoga flag, just in front of the Spanish Barn)

Open to people of all ages, backgrounds and abilities.  Held every Sunday between 5th May – 15th September

You will find tales of old explained behind your favourite poses.  Myths that mirror realities we find in our everyday lives.  Igniting a conscious awareness & evolving the human psyche.

Each & every session will have a focus on your breathing.  I intend to bring two different breath techniques to every session we teach.  Each reducing everyday anxieties and nervousness.

Combine this with the rich and interrelated history of movement and dance in yoga ascribed to Gods and myths of the past and you will hopefully grove away with us triumphantly.

This is a support group for young parents – whether you are still waiting to meet your little one or if they have arrived.

This group is aimed at parents who are 25 and under – We meet every Monday 10-12 at the Beehive (except Bank Holidays) – Refreshments are available.

If a session is not running, we will inform you on Social Media.

No need to book – Just turn up!
