As the light reaches its fullest expression, come together to mark the summer solstice with intentional movement, stillness and sound.

A Solstice Gathering is an intimate evening of yoga accompanied throughout by the live music of harpist Ruth. Every breath, every transition and every moment of rest will be woven together with Ruth's music, creating a seamless and unhurried journey from movement into stillness as we mark this significant turning point in the year.

Olivia will guide a sun-inspired hatha vinyasa practice, beginning slowly and building warmth through sun salutations to honour the light of the season. From there we will be guided back to the floor, settling into a long savasana before closing with time for journalling and reflection, all while being cocooned in the flowing melody of Ruth's harp.

This symbolic gathering is an opportunity to pause, reflect, set intentions and release what is no longer serving us at this halfway point in the year.

This evening is open to everyone, whether you're new to yoga or have been practising for years.

What to bring: A journal and pen, and perhaps a small offering for our solstice altar (e.g. flowers, artwork, a shell or anything else which represents the summer solstice for you).
Places are limited due to the intimate nature of the event.

A little late posting this - but on Saturday 21st June after my sunrise solstice class I had the privilege of speaking on with my soul sister on the John Toal show!

We spoke about yoga, the significance of the solstice, I taught John some moves live on radio AND we even got a bodhrán lesson!

You can still listen back on the BBC Sounds app for another couple of weeks (skip to 1:15). Link below but I'll also pop it in my bio 🫶

Thanks to John, Cameron and team for having us 🙏☀️

Some new followers here so I thought I'd introduce myself 👋

I'm Olivia. I'm a hatha, restorative and menopause yoga teacher but I also work full time for a mental health charity as a wellbeing advisor and occasional yoga instructor.

I did my 200hrs in Santosha in Lisburn in 2022 (final exam was 2 days before our wedding, it was a big weekend!!) 🫶

I first went to India in 2019 and travelled around Rajasthan. I wanted to do my 200 hours here but then COVID happened. I'm heading back to India this November to do my 300hrs in Goa and I can't wait! 🥰

I live in Belfast with my husband Shane and our bow tie wearing tabby cat Enzo. 🐈‍⬛

I have one regular class a week at the moment in Lotus Wellness in Bangor. I mostly cover classes in The Den, OM, Yoga Quarter and Queen's PEC. I work with Lagan Valley Regional Park to deliver seasonal outdoor yoga events. I am also able to do corporate yoga or hen parties.

Aside from yoga, I have too many hobbies.
I love going to gigs, hiking, going to the gym, all things art related (I recently got into pottery!), gardening, reading, paddle boarding and I've also been learning how to roller skate! 🛼

Thanks for reading and I hope to see some of you on the mat soon 🙏

What a special morning at the Giant's Ring with a yoga practice to mark the summer solstice 🌞

Summer solstice is a turning point in the year. Where the sun is highest in the sky, the longest day and the shortest night. It was a time of gathering, community, ceremony and fire 🔥 We had no fire this morning (thankfully!) but we had such a lovely sense of community as everyone came together to mark this special day 🌞🌿

It was my second year doing this at the Giant's Ring and the sun was shining on us again this year 🌞

Giant's Ring was an incredible venue for solstice yoga as it is an ancient neolithic tomb even older than the pyramids 🤯 People gathered here before us for thousands of years for ceremony and ritual. It's thought that the site could have been used as an amphitheatre (definitely not for defence as the inner walls are too steep!). You could really feel the connection to the land and our ancestors this morning as we all came together 🌿🌞

Thank you to all the early birds who joined me this morning, it was a pleasure 💕
