Event details
Tuesday 25 June | 10am - 2pm
Free event
In partnership with Derbyshire Mind
Movement and Mindfulness merges yoga with mindfulness and breath techniques.
This tutor-guided session will take place in various locations around the garden at Chatsworth and is designed to encourage participants to experience the benefits of movement and of ‘being present’ within a tranquil outdoor space.
The session aims to bring a sense of calm and grounding to help ease stress and anxiety and will include opportunities to practice mindfulness and participate in a gentle dance class with a difference – no complicated choreography – that is fully accessible to all.
This is one in a series of wellbeing events run in partnership with Derbyshire Mind. Tickets will be available from 23 April, find out more here.
About the session
The session will take place in the garden and the Old Potting Shed. As we will spend some time taking inspiration from the garden, walking in all weather, please wear suitable footwear and clothing.
The Old Potting Shed is a step free, accessible venue but please contact education@chatsworth.org if you have any questions about your specific needs.
Please meet at the top garden gates (near the Stables) at 9.45am.
Wellbeing at Chatsworth in partnership with Derbyshire Mind
We are delighted to partner with Derbyshire Mind for these new Wellbeing at Chatsworth events, part of our Celebrating the Cascade fundraising campaign.
Derbyshire Mind is working in collaboration with Chatsworth’s Learning and Engagement team and offering six different events, one each month from May to October.
Each event is set within the beauty and calm of the garden and woodland and is focused on techniques to improve wellbeing and mood.
The public programme events for the Celebrating the Cascade have been subsidised to keep charges to a minimum.
A Celebrating the Cascade event
Our new Celebrating the Cascade wellness sessions have been designed to delight and inspire you. We invite you to enjoy the calm and beauty of nature in the garden and wider landscape. Find balance as you step away from daily routines and pause with us by still and flowing waters. We invite you to open your heart and mind to the environment and connect with our wonderful surroundings.
The Celebrating the Cascade project is made possible with The National Lottery Heritage Fund. Thanks to National Lottery Players, the project is working to restore the Cascade, safeguarding it for the enjoyment of future generations and enabling more people to get involved with Chatsworth.
If you would like to support this project, please make a donation to Chatsworth House Trust here.
