Wonder Walks
Intentional walks with a purpose. Moving through urban wild scapes on foot as a crew.
Exploring the wilder, liminal edge places of Bath and Bristol
Through simple invitations explore what happens when we open up the imagination and allow other perspectives on life to emerge.
Get into the body and the power of movement as a liberating act.
Connect to self, land and others through a range of creative and connection practices.
Typically a Wonder Walk lasts about 3 hours
The start and end point is fixed
As the Wonder Walk unfolds our guides will work with the group and offer a series of ‘invitations’ These are practices designed to support connection, creativity and service.
We will explore ways to open up to awe & wonder, elicit creative responses from the landscape, and connect to our bodies, each other and the more-than-human imagination. We will seek other perspectives on life, try creative writing, tune into place - belonging, identity, myth and story.
We’ll end the walk with a FREE cuppa and cake.
How they work
Return to Circle
Circle technology - the ancient social technology that connects us to self, each other and land.
A simple re-membering how to tune into ancient intelligence that we all carry as humans. To sit together in community to listen, share and connect. An invitation into prescence and deep listening.
How they work
Typically they last two hours in person or 90 minutes online.
They take place in partner sites across Bristol and Bath and on Zoom where we can remind ourselves that these practices can co-exist within the busyness of modern life.
Our guides will hold the space and offer gentle connection practice and prompts to get started.
Our guides are experienced in holding these spaces in ways that are safe and that support trust, and shared connection.
Nothing is compulsory and nobody is expected to share beyond what is comfortable and right for them.
The beauty of Return to Circle is that it evolves to meet the unfolding needs of the group.
Ghostwood Down Days
A day on the land at Ghostwood Down
An extraordinary land regeneration project just 15 minutes from central Bath and 30 minutes from central Bristol.
If you are an organisation that works with young people, spend time with us on-land, we’ll weave together a half day or full day programme grounded in connection, creativity and service.
It might include time sitting in circle, time exploring the land, creative enquiry, movement, nature-based practices and simple land regeneration tasks.
We can provide a simple vegetarian lunch and plenty of tea.
Maximum group size 10.
How it works
Spend a day at Ghostwood Down, a regenerating downland on the edge of Bath.
We’ll make space for conversation, creativity, movement and simple hands-on work with the land, alongside time to explore the questions you might be carrying. Come for fresh air and a chance to try something different.
