abi-breathing

Abi: Quiet Power – Restoring the wisdom of the body and belonging

When you control life within an inch of itself, change can feel startling, knocking you off your feet. Holding it altogether feels like the only path to success, which overloads your body and underwhelms your spirit.
And that’s because you’re trying to do it all on your own and you don’t have to because your body knows if you let it remember. And nature speaks a language we understand if we create the space to listen.
And listening is the greatest medicine we have.
In this 60-minute experience, Abigail will guide you back to your natural rhythm through slow, strong, intentional movement that gently releases tension, restricted patterns and the conflicting thoughts held within both body and mind.
As your body begins to soften and your nervous system settles, clarity emerges. You reconnect with your intuition, discover a deeper harmony between your masculine and feminine qualities and create space for a more grounded authentic way of living
This is not about becoming someone new. It is about coming home to yourself – where trust deepens, your inner wisdom becomes easier to hear and life feels richer, more meaningful and full of possibility.

chris-finn-3

Chris Finn – The Power of Presence

Chris Finn is a psychologist, coach and author of A Clear Mind, a book exploring how less mental noise can lead to greater clarity, wellbeing and performance.
Drawing from psychology, neuroscience, mindfulness and his work with growth-oriented professionals, entrepreneurs and teams, Chris helps people understand how stress, anxiety and overthinking can interfere with how they feel, perform and relate to themselves. His work focuses on a simple but powerful insight: when the mind clears, people naturally access more clarity, confidence, creativity and resilience.
Chris is known for delivering thought-provoking and practical talks that help people stop battling their minds and reconnect with a more grounded, present and effective way of living and working. His approach blends psychological understanding with warmth, humour and real-world application, making complex ideas feel accessible and immediately useful.
Through speaking, workshops and one-to-one work, Chris helps people experience more ease, self-trust and impact — not by adding more pressure or techniques, but by understanding how the mind really works.

Awakening Pelvic Awareness: A Guided Meditation for Women’s Health and Wellbeing by Loulou James, founder of the Buttafly and Spine Health Specialist.

For many women, the pelvis only comes into focus when something goes wrong — perhaps pelvic floor symptoms, back or sacroiliac pain, menstrual difficulties, fertility challenges, or the changes that accompany pregnancy and menopause.
Yet long before symptoms arise, this is an area where many of us may unconsciously hold tension, have limited awareness of, or have even disconnected from the sensations and messages of this part of the body.
In this gentle, experiential session, Loulou James will guide participants through breathwork, visualisation and meditation to cultivate awareness of the pelvis, inviting curiosity, relaxation and a deeper connection.
Developing this awareness can become an important part of supporting pelvic health and overall well-being, helping us reconnect with the body’s natural capacity for balance.
Suitable for women of all ages and requiring no previous meditation experience, this calming session offers an opportunity to pause, listen and reconnect with the foundation of the body.

Art for Wellness. Pause. Play. Let go.

Step into a vibrant hour of colour, creativity and calm at The Nici, Bournemouth.
Landscape artist and hand-painter Shelley Perry invites you to put aside the pressure of creating a “perfect” painting and discover the joy of simply making marks, playing with colour and trusting your instincts.
Inspired by The Nici’s bold Miami aesthetic, you’ll begin by mixing and matching your own vibrant colour palette, taking inspiration from images of Miami’s sun-drenched architecture, palm trees, ocean and tropical surroundings.
Then, using your fingers and hands, you’ll leave the idea of a finished landscape behind. Instead, allow colour, texture and spontaneous marks to take over. There is no right or wrong, and no expectation of what your artwork should become.
What emerges will be a completely unique, richly textured visual record of your creative energy in that moment — an abstract artwork that captures how you felt, rather than what you saw.
Roll up your A2 creation and take it home as a colourful reminder to pause, be present and let go.

Circuits

Jo is a PT who has been working at The Nici for 18 months (and a fab R2R volunteer for over 2 years!). She thoroughly enjoys her morning classes, the members are upbeat and always eager and keen to learn new circuits. They leave feeling energised and ready to face the day. Jo keeps her classes small so she can demonstrate, observe and correct form easily. She makes sure each person uses the correct weight, this helps prevent over lifting which reduces the risk of injuries.
Jo also trains private clients and gives comprehensive nutrition and wellbeing advice. She is currently training to be a qualified Menopause focused PT, which she finds is a subject close to her heart and she can’t wait to help all of those who need it.
Circuits
A group PT body conditioning circuit that involves endurance, resistance and strength training. This class will use body weight, medicine balls, resistance bands and dumbbells.

lauren-1

Reformer Taster Sessions

Lauren always believed that movement makes things better – both mentally and physically – and this philosophy built the core foundation of her practice. Personally, Pilates served as a main source of healing while she was seriously ill in 1999, which then inspired her to get certified in 2002. She has been happily teaching ever since.

Lauren’s initial certification in Pilates was through Power Pilates in Chicago, Illinois and then continued to study at the Pilates Centre in Boulder, Colorado and the renowned FAMI School in New York City. Most recently, Lauren was certified in the Bowen Technique and has continued to extensively study anatomy with Julian Baker at Functional Fascia in the UK.

Lauren’s teaching style has been shaped by her varied education. This allows her to continually evolve her teaching style creating unique, fun and challenging practices for all of her clients.

Sound Studio – Soundbaths

Sam created Sound Studio nearly 2 years ago. She is a sound therapist who creates deeply restorative soundbath experiences designed to calm the nervous system, release stress, and reconnect people with a sense of inner balance. Working across beautiful wellness spaces including SU Studio, Chewton Glen, and other locations, Sam offers immersive sessions that blend therapeutic sound with mindful intention.

A soundbath is a meditative experience where participants lie down comfortably while being “bathed” in sound waves created by instruments such as crystal singing bowls, gongs, chimes, and other therapeutic tools. These frequencies help guide the body into a relaxed state, supporting emotional release, mental clarity, and deep rest.

Sam’s sessions are intuitive, chakra-inspired, and tailored to the energy of the group, making each experience unique. Whether you’re looking to unwind, reset, or explore deeper states of relaxation and self-connection, Sam’s soundbaths provide a gentle yet powerful way to support your wellbeing.
