Today's late-stage capitalist society is causing us to suffer a huge disconnection from our inner selves, we ache for a place to be vulnerable, and to soften in a safe environment.The circle is a creative space for those who need a long moment to be present and alive in the archetypal womb. This workshop is gender-inclusive, giving people on the entire gender spectrum the opportunity to experience an act of symbolic menstruation.This ancestral practice can become a ritual for helping us to reconnect with ourselves and others more deeply, moving towards communion and self-transcendence.The workshop, led by two experienced guides, will immerse you in a space adorned with red velvet and atmospheric music. We invite you to take part in interactive performance art, including movement, breathwork and open dialogue on themes of life, death and rebirth as a ceremony. Audience participation is encouraged during the event, since together we complete the circle.

Since you’re here…

… we have a small favour to ask. We don't want your money to support a hack's bar bill at Abattoir, but if you have a pound or two spare, we really encourage you to support a good cause. If this review has either helped you discover a gem or avoid a turkey, consider doing some good that will really make a difference.

You can donate to the charity of your choice, but if you're looking for inspiration, there are three charities we really like.

Show me the charities

Mama Biashara
Kate Copstick’s charity, Mama Biashara, works with the poorest and most marginalised people in Kenya. They give grants to set up small, sustainable businesses that bring financial independence and security. That five quid you spend on a large glass of House White? They can save someone’s life with that. And the money for a pair of Air Jordans? Will take four women and their fifteen children away from a man who is raping them and into a new life with a moneymaking business for Mum and happiness for the kids.
