A quiet hour for mothers 🌹🔥

This Mother’s Day we’re opening the sauna early for the mothers in our community.

Motherhood holds a lot — care, devotion, the constant tending of others. So this is a small offering from the school: a quiet hour by the fire to sweat, breathe and be held for a moment.

Sunday 15th March • 8am
Community Mother’s Day Sauna
Free for mothers

There will also be an optional rose and salt scrub available (ÂŁ6) and rose tea waiting in the yurt afterwards.

Spaces are limited so the sauna stays calm and spacious.

If there’s a mother in your life who might appreciate this gentle start to the day, feel free to tag her below so she sees the invitation.

—

We’ll also be opening the sauna for private Mother’s Day bookings throughout the day if you’d like to bring your mum, partner, sister or friends for a quiet hour together.

These sessions include a rose scrub ritual and rose tea in the yurt afterwards.

A little moment from the weekend at the School 🔥

My son and I were out chopping wood for the saunas, doing our small part to keep the fires burning.

There’s something very grounding about it. The simple rhythm of splitting wood, stacking it, preparing the warmth that people will later come to sit beside.

Every sauna you step into here has been prepared by real hands.

And it’s always a quiet joy knowing that the warmth people experience later begins with moments like this.

Here’s what’s coming up at the School this week:

Sauna & Yin: Emerging with Jennie Atkinson Yoga
Sunday 8 March · 6–8pm

Healing Drum Circle with Graig

https://theoldschoolspirituality.as.me/drumcircle

Sacred Sweat – Men’s Sauna with Joe Coyne
Saturday 14 March · 10–11am
https://theoldschoolspirituality.as.me/sacredsweat

If something calls you, you’d be very welcome to join us.

And if you’ve sat in the sauna here before, you’ll know, the fire always seems to bring good people together.

A little behind-the-scenes update from the school 🌿

We’ve just finished our new changing room, which is already making the sauna experience feel that bit more comfortable and held. And outside, we’re currently preparing a soakaway so we can have a simple outdoor shower in place soon too.

It’s all coming together slowly, piece by piece. Nothing rushed — just steady steps towards a space that feels more complete, practical, and welcoming for everyone who comes through.

A big thank you to Chris for his beautiful carpentry work on the changing room. It’s turned out so thoughtfully and really adds to the feel of the space.

Thank you all for being part of the journey. Your presence, bookings, and support help these small but meaningful improvements take shape.

More to share soon🌲🔥

YOGA MOVEMENT DIVERSITY
A slow, lineage-rooted yoga flow with where tradition meets physiology.
Thursday 11th December · 6pm–8pm · The Old School, Ludgvan

What to expect

• Sauna + Bedouin tea
We begin with an hour of gentle heat to support vasodilation, deeper breath and an unforced transition into sweat — working with the physiology of regulation.

• Slow-flow practice in the yurt
Movement centred on fascia: the connective-tissue network shaping structure, proprioception and the nervous system’s sense of safety.

• Postures sequenced through lineage + science

• Osteopathic-informed alignment
Creating joint space, supporting functional lines of tension and honouring the body’s natural tendency toward balance, never forcing shape.

• Qigong + tai chi pacing
Breath-led, grounded, attentive movement that supports internal awareness and nervous system coherence.

This is yoga where lineage meets physiology. Strengthening, softening and letting the body reorganise from the inside out.

Group size: 7
A small, intimate container that keeps each nervous system settled, seen and safe.

Exchange: ÂŁ23

This morning with felt like a quiet exhale for the mothers who gathered here.
Soft light in the yurt, roses on the altar, the warmth of the wood burner and that unmistakable moment when women finally let their shoulders drop.

We moved between sauna heat, cool garden air, and tea in hand, before settling into Anna’s gentle breathwork and sound journey. A space for mothers to be held, to soften and to come home to themselves again.

There was such beauty in the stillness that followed, a reminder of how deeply this kind of support is needed.

Anna is hoping to offer these mornings monthly.

✨ Women’s Wintering Sauna Whisking Sessions With Sarah
Sunday 29th November
🔥🌿 A softening for the season

Sessions:
• 5pm – 6.15pm
• 6.45pm – 8pm

Exchange: ÂŁ18.50
Spaces: 7 per session

Step into the warmth of the wood-fired sauna and soften into winter with Sarah’s guided whisking ritual. A deeply nurturing experience inviting your body to slow, release, and realign with the rhythm of the season.

These sessions are part of her Softening Into Winter series (1 Nov – 10 Dec), gently supporting you to honour the quieter months and listen to the deeper whispers within.

Sarah is a woman of the land — a flower farmer and gentle space holder — weaving together steam, breath, whisks, scrubs, and quiet reflection to guide you into a tender, heart-opening state of presence.

As the trees shed their leaves, we too soften, release, and drop into our own wintering.

In the stillness and the heat,
we breathe
we whisk
we winter

A space to stir whatever your soul is calling for.
You are welcome exactly as you are. 🤍

Beneath the old slate roof, breath returns to the walls.
What was once a school is becoming something new.
A space for rest, reflection and belonging.

The sauna holds its quiet heat.

The yurt opens to song, silence and story.
And the land invites you to slow down and listen.

The Old School of Experiential Spirituality is a place for those on the path of inner growth, wondering what now?
A place to gather, to deepen, to come home to yourself — in community.

The kettle’s on. The fire’s lit.
Come sit for a while. You’re welcome here.
