Overview
IT'S OUR BIRTHDAY - and we want to celebrate with you. Join us in London for the 4th birthday of The Wild Times and raise money for two of our favourite charities, so all profits will go towards these two causes close to our hearts - The Palestinian Children's Relief Fund and Movember. We are also VERY excited to be partnering with Vivo Barefoot, who will be sharing some barefoot wisdom and movement knowledge around the fire! We have curated a day of all of our favourite things to share with you - sauna, yoga, a soundbath, delicious food and fireside chats with friends and cacao... Hosted at our favourite urban oases, Hackney Wick Baths and Community Sauna Baths in East London, we are bringing a bit of the wild back into the city. Ticket price includes: yoga, arrival hot drink and light breakfast, lunch, sound bath, a 90 minute sauna session, cacao around the fire with Vivo Barefoot as well as a Wild Times goodie bag. Help us to raise as much money as possible - bring your pals or come alone and make some new ones! We'll start with hot drinks and overnight oats, before practicing a relaxed vinyasa class with options for all levels of yogi. This will be followed by a dreamy, relaxing sound bath by Veronique, before a 90 minute sauna session in Community Sauna Baths. Then we'll gather for lunch in the Baths, before having a cacao around the fire pit. Chat and connect with others over tea and lunch. Head back out into the city with a little more calm in your soul - more grounded, connected and calmer. The retreat day will run from 09.30am - 3pm.
