Transform Your Life with Bloom

---

Date: Sunday 19th April 2026

Time: 2.00pm-5.00pm

Venue: Yoga Sangha, Cheadle

Step into a journey of deep renewal at our upcoming Yoga Immersion, where the wisdom of asana meets the healing touch of Reiki and the ancient art of acupuncture. This is more than a workshop—it's a full-body reset. Move through grounding practices curated to open the body, then surrender into stillness as we use energy work to guide you toward balance. Whether releasing blocked Qi through fine needles or receiving Reiki's gentle life-force energy, you'll leave feeling aligned, restored, and deeply held.
