Open Practice Mornings 🙆

Find it hard to motivate yourself to commit to a regular personal yoga practice? Or lack the space or equipment to do your yoga practice (and therefore yourself) justice? Or maybe you start practising at home but then notice the dust-bunnies under the sofa and the constant reminders about you of work / home pressures and to-do lists and get distracted? (We know the feeling too well)

Mostly the practice is quiet, with Rachel being present but not teaching as she is there to practice herself too.

People go about their own set of asanas mindfully on their mat. Occasionally people can help each other, ask for advice from senior teachers, or more experienced practitioners might spot something they could help with and offer assistance.

These are open to students of any yoga style and people can come and use our calm space and all the yoga equipment, setting aside personal time for you ✨

The sessions are Thursdays 8-9.15am (starting first week of November) so perhaps you can join us before work or starting your day.
Come and be part of a practice community!

If you're not sure about how/whether to join in, don't hesitate to drop us an email on [email protected].

The sessions are free but we will have a donation box to put a small amount towards heating and use of the room if you can afford anything 🫶

We look forward to having you join us 🙂

Chakradance with Dana Sedlackova ✨

Consider this your invitation to reconnect with yourself through a unique fusion of Jungian psychology, free-flowing dance, chakra-resonant music, guided visualisation and mandala art.

In the busyness of everyday life, it's easy to lose touch with parts of ourselves—our joy, intuition, creativity and inner wisdom. Chakradance creates a compassionate and nurturing space to return to your body, reconnect with what matters most, and remember the wholeness that has always been within you.

This is a non-performative, free-flowing movement experience—there are no steps to learn and no dance experience is required. Simply come with an open mind, comfortable clothing and a willingness to explore. The workshop is practised barefoot.

📅 Saturday 17 October 2026
🕑 2:00pm
📍 Maitri Studio, Belfast
💷 £33

Message Dana Sedlackova to book your place: [email protected] or dm via her instagram .in.all.forms

What a day yesterday at our Open Day and Fundraiser for Shine Charity! ✨

Thank you to everyone who came to support!

It's on days like these that we feel truly grateful to have such an amazing community at Maitri. So many teachers and facilitators offered to teach, facilitate or give a hand and so many people came to enjoy the large variety of classes offered 💕

What other day of the week could you try out argentine tango followed by a foot health session for charity? Get some henna whilst eating delicious homemade cake? Have a chat about anti-racism then enter the deepest meditation?
Come on, what a day! 🌞

We are still doing the sums to know how much was raised so far (we will update you!), but for now, you can still donate at https://2027tcslondonmarathon.enthuse.com/pf/claire-ferry to support Claire in running the London Marathon in 2027 for Shine Charity (that supports her mum) ⭐

And we hope to see you all again soon at a class, an event, a training, anything that speaks to you, interests you, connects with you. Maitri has so much to offer 🥰
