Walk and Talk is a friendly group for people who want to get out more, enjoy walks in the warmer months, and meet new people along the way. The aim is to build a supportive community where we can socialise, stay active, motivate each other, and make walking more enjoyable together. We’ll meet for relaxed group walks, good conversation, and a positive sense of connection.

DANCING EVERY 1ST AND 3RD SATURDAYS OF THE MONTH <3 Tribalheart Ecstatic dance creates space for free-form movement in a chat free zone where you can dive deeply into the heart, reconnecting, expressing, dancing in and out, up and down, learning to let go of anything and everything that holds you back from yourSelf and inner freedom. Let the energy move you, let the spirit of the heart guide you. There is space to dance alone and no pressure to connect with anyone else, just be yourself and honour what you need in the moment. This night is an inspiration and fusion of club culture, dancing yoga, active meditation, cardio fitness, Ecstatic trance dance (blindfolds available) and a sacred Nataraj. If you choose to connect, it is a chance to meet others without words from a place of movement, meditation, energy and soul; eyes and heart wide open. ### We will start the evening with a welcoming warmup to relax the body and mind. Together we will set an intention for the evening inviting the heart to open and awaken within us thus creating sacred space for all. For those that wish to partake, we will enjoy and deepen our intention with a short Cacao ceremony. (The cacao is used to take us deeper into our body, awakening our senses, connecting us to heart energy and aiding a spring in our step) We also embark on some dynamic breathwork to fire us up for the evening. \- Please leave at least 2 hours after eating a heavy meal if drinking cacao\. -Please do not drink alcohol before the event as it is contraindicated with some of the breathwork techniques we practice We inject passion into sourcing the music for our events and aim to deliver an eclectic mix of genres for your heart. From tribal to electronic and everything in between we aim to assist a natural flow peaking and resting to mirror the rhythm and energy of life. Prepare to shake, spin, whirl and twirl. The music becomes the facilitator during the wild ecstatic dance ending with moments of stillness into silence where we can rest and breathe together Each DJ has their own sound and energy to be shared, making each night unique and different... 4/4/2026-DJ TARA 18/4/2026-DJ ATMO Admission **New Venue**-Doors open from 630pm and we start at 7pm.

His mission is to touch 33 million hearts, inspiring others to find their purpose through the philosophy of **Conscious Human Ascensions.** **Hey Legends! :)** Are you tired of fitness and exercise being just about burning calories, diets, boring workout or tough weight training sessions? Are you looking for a movement practice that feels as good for your brain as it does for your body..? Our Founder, Sadiq knows exactly how that feels, as he's been on a creative, fun and explorational movement journey for over 9 yrs now. He started with bodyweight training, then moving into calisthentics and animal flow primal moves over the years of his practice. In a world of static gym machines and digital distraction, the ultimate competitive advantage is **Mobility + Mindful Presence.** Join ***MYNDtopia*** for a primal immersion designed for founders, high-performers and conscious souls who want to bridge the gap between physical peak performance and spiritual evolution. This isn’t just a "workout" session. It’s a **Conscious Infrastructure** for your body. We are gathering a curated tribe to explore the intersection of ground-based movement and the science of human optimisation and peak, high performance. #### **The Experience** **Primal flow state \~** We begin with a mindful warmup, followed by an **Animal Flow** session \~ a bodyweight movement system designed to improve mobility, strength and neuromuscular communication. No equipment, just your own biology **The ascension talk \~** A deep-dive discussion on **Physical Health & Human Optimisation.** We move beyond "getting fit" and explore how to use your body as a vessel for higher consciousness **Community open forum \~** This is a safe space for "Deep-Soul Masterminding." Share your health challenges, ask questions and offer insights. No small talk \~ just real solutions for real growth **High-vibration networking \~** Connect with others who value longevity, biohacking, and intentional living. Build relationships based on shared values, not just job titles #### #### **Who Is This For?** **Founders & Leaders \~** who need to de-stress their nervous systems and regain mobility lost to "desk culture" **Longevity Lovers** \~ those looking to upgrade their physical "hardware" through mindful movement **Conscious Movers \~** people who believe that physical mastery is a non-negotiable priority for spiritual ascension **The Ambitious & Aware \~** anyone seeking a tribe that values deep work and authentic health over surface-level aesthetics ### #### **Why Attend?** In a city of 4 million, finding a "tribe" that prioritises both high performance and deep mindfulness can be rare. MYNDtopia filters for **quality, integrity and consciousness** so you don't have to :) **You'll leave with:** **1) A New Movement Language \~** Foundations of Animal Flow to use in your daily routine **2) Biological Clarity \~** Practical tools for physical ascension + human optimisation **3) Genuine Connections \~** 3–5 high-level collaborators who align with your health vision **Dress Code:** Move-ready / Athletic-wear (Consciously comfortable & respectful) ***FEEL FREE TO BRING YOUR OWN WATER BOTTLES + YOGA MATS :)*** ***HOT DRINKS, WATER + LIGHT HEALTHY REFRESHMENTS WILL BE PROVIDED...*** **Note:** Spaces are strictly limited to ensure intimacy and high-quality facilitation.

**NOVA Sapiens™** Struggling with constant anxiety, stress, fear, or panic attacks? This is for you: **One session. A different level of you.** **When your system feels like it’s “going too fast”** Anxiety is not a thinking problem. Panic is not a personality problem. Fear spirals are not irrational behavior. They are **nervous system activation patterns that have become self-reinforcing.** When this happens, the system can feel like: racing thoughts you cannot slow down sudden waves of fear or dread physical anxiety with no clear reason, looping “what if” scenarios, emotional overwhelm that feels uncontrollable, difficulty making even simple decisions. You are not broken. Your system is **stuck in threat activation mode.** **A neuroscience-led** **clarity & nervous system reset session.** A deeply restorative, neuroscience-informed experience designed for everyone seeking to reset the nervous system, restore mental clarity, and rebuild emotional balance in a supported environment. Set in the natural calm, this session blends modern brain science with structured recovery practices to support sustainable inner change, resilience, ​and self-regulation. ## **NOVA Sapiens™ 19th April** A psychotherapeutic session based on neuroscience ​ **WHO THIS IS FOR** **WHEN YOUR BODY IS IN ALERT MODE… YOUR MIND CAN’T THINK CLEARLY** ​This session is for you if you are experiencing: ⚡racing thoughts you cannot slow down ⚡sudden waves of anxiety or fear ⚡looping “what if” scenarios ⚡emotional overwhelm for no clear reason ⚡difficulty calming your system once it activates ⚡ you experience physical tension, restlessness, panic-like internal states (mild to moderate) Then you already know: **this is not a thinking problem.** **It is a nervous system activation pattern.** **YOU ARE NOT BROKEN** Your system is not malfunctioning. It is: ⚡ over-activated ⚡ pattern-looped ⚡ responding as if something is “not safe” ⚡ stuck in a predictive fear cycle This is learnable, visible, and interruptible. **​HOW THIS IS DIFFERENT** ​This is not: ⚡talk therapy ⚡emotional processing session ⚡long-term treatment ⚡spiritual calming work ​This is: **applied nervous system work for real-time stabilization** **​** ​ **What this session is** This is a **live, structured nervous system regulation session** designed to help ​ ⚡reduce internal threat activation patterns and restore baseline stability ⚡understand your anxiety pattern structure ⚡reduce internal threat activation in real time ⚡interrupt looping fear cycles ⚡restore cognitive and emotional clarity ⚡build a simple regulation framework you can use again ​This is not therapy. This is not coaching. ​This is **applied nervous system work in real time.** This is not a conversation, ​This is a **structured psychological intervention for clarity.** **What happens in this hour.** **​**Working directly with your current activation patterns. **1\. MAP YOUR ACTIVATION SYSTEM** We identify: 👉what triggers your nervous system escalation 👉how the fear loop begins and repeats 👉where cognitive amplification starts 👉 ​what your personal anxiety pattern structure is You stop seeing “random anxiety” and start seeing **a predictable system.** **2\. INTERRUPT THE LOOP** ​Guiding your system toward: 👉reduced physiological arousal and emotional escalation patterns 👉stabilization of attention and perception 👉interruption of catastrophic prediction cycles 👉work withfear amplification cycles and overthinking spirals ​ ​The goal is not to “remove anxiety” bu**t to reduce intensity and restore internal control.** ​**3\. REBUILD RESPONSE STRUCTURE** **​​** **​**You leave with: 👉your personal “when this happens → do this”map 👉 ​early warning signal awareness-recognition of early activation signals 👉tools to stop escalation before it peaks:grounding + regulation steps 👉clarity on how your system responds under stress,clarity on how to interrupt future spirals ​ ​You leave with **a practical regulation guidance** **THIS IS NOT FOR YOU IF…** **you are in acute crisis or need medical/psychiatric care** **you prefer unstructured emotional conversation** **you are looking for long-term psychotherapy** **you want passive relaxation or wellness experiences** **​** **​THIS IS FOR YOU IF…** **your nervous system feels overstimulated or reactive** **you want practical tools to reduce spiraling** **you want to understand your anxiety pattern clearly** **you want immediate structure and stabilization** Led by Ayna Utegalieva- **Psychologist \| Author\|Founder of NOVA Sapiens™** Ayna Utegalieva is a psychologist working at the intersection of **anxiety, nervous system regulation, and identity transition**.Her work is based on a simple observation: many people are not lacking insight — they are overwhelmed by internal patterns they don’t fully understand. Through her framework, **NOVA Sapiens™**, she helps individuals make sense of anxiety loops, emotional overload, and recurring behavioral patterns, and begin to restructure how they respond to them.Ayna’s sessions are designed for those navigating **uncertainty, pressure, or transition**, offering a structured process that brings clarity, reduces internal noise, and restores a sense of direction and self-trust.Her approach combines psychological depth with practical structure — creating space not just for understanding, but for **real internal change**. At the core of this work is the concept of **NOVA Sapiens™** — a perspective that explores how human internal experience is evolving in today's world under conditions of **constant change, uncertainty, and information overload. More here http://www.worldwomen.co.uk/bali-for-transformation.html** **WHY INVEST/WHY THIS WORKS** Most anxiety approaches fail because they: ⚡they don’t apply neuroscience ​⚡focus on thoughts instead of a systematised approach ⚡give generic tools not personalized patterns ⚡don’t work in real-time activation states This session is different because it: **works with your nervous system as it is — not as it “should be”** **FINAL WORD** **You do not need more information.** You need **a structured way to understand and regulate what is already happening inside you.** This session is designed to give you that — in real time. I keep these sessions intentionally small to create a more personal, tailored experience for everyone involved. Because of that, there are only a limited number of spaces available, and once they’re filled, I won’t be adding more. If you’re feeling called to join, I’d recommend securing your spot soon. **READY TO BEGIN?** Book your spot now https://pay.gocardless.com/BRT000502EX9T3T More about us [http://www.worldwomen.co.uk/bali-for-transformation.html](http://www.worldwomen.co.uk/bali-for-transformation.html)

**FI NEWSLEARNS -** A monthly, in-person session where we gather to examine the week’s biggest headlines — scrutinising sources, narratives, and editorial decisions as unofficial editors of an open-source newsroom. **THE CONCEPT** Inspired by *the open-source newsroom model*, this **meetup** brings that spirit into real life. We create a space for honest, constructive analysis of how the news is covered and how the cycle impacts our interests. **WHO IT’S FOR** Originally built for journalists, it’s open to everyone. Media professionals, researchers, students, and curious members of the public — all perspectives are welcome. No credentials needed — just a critical eye. **WHAT WE DO** Each session, participants step into the role of FI editors and journalists. Together, we examine real headlines, using the FI platform live to improve news literacy and encourage civil, collaborative discussion in a non-judgemental environment. **BEFORE ATTENDING;** Before attending, we ask participants to review the monthly news cycle and come prepared with 3–4 editorial observations. These can include red flags (e.g. bias, weak sourcing, misleading framing) or green flags (e.g. strong evidence, balanced reporting, transparency) to discuss with the group.
