Welcome to Gathering Essence

We are a Movement and Meditation centre offering classes in Edinburgh and online. Our expert-led classes, workshops and retreats blend somatic flowing movement, breathwork, stillness, and a deep sense of embodiment and presence.

Rooted in reverence for the body’s innate intelligence and in the science of Biodynamics, our teachings offer a toolkit for conscious living that can be applied to everyday life to nourish body, mind and spirit.
