The Benefits of Sound Therapy – Mental, Emotional, Physical & Spiritual Wellbeing
Christian will be guiding us through an interactive talk on the power of sound for deep healing and transformation.
Sound is more than just something we hear—it’s something we
feel
. It moves through us, shifting stuck energy, rebalancing our nervous system, and helping us release what no longer serves us.
Christian will take us on a journey into how sound therapy can support
mental, emotional, and physical
wellbeing—helping to process trauma, dissolve stress, and restore balance in our everyday lives. Whether the root of our struggles lies in childhood experiences, ancestral patterns, or past-life imprints, the frequencies of sound offer a powerful way to reconnect, reset, and step into a brighter, more aligned future.
If you’ve ever been curious about the power of sound, this is your invitation to
immerse, experience, and feel the shift for yourself.

Introduction to roller dance | The Skate Sanctuary by RGG
Jun 5, 2025 (UTC+1)
Leeds
This is our most gentle roller dance class, designed to introduce the roller dance skills and techniques we have developed since 2015.
This is a 4-week course. Although you can buy individual class tickets, attending all 4 classes will help you progress more, as the course builds on skills each week.
***Offer: buy all 4 classes and receive a free FNS ticket at the end of the course
***
While no previous dance experience is necessary, we do think you will get more from the workshop if you are able to stand still, roll forwards and step from side to side on your roller skates. If you don't feel confident to join in on skates, you are welcome to wear your shoes or socks and join in with wheels when you feel ready.
Fundamental roller dance skills will allow you to fully develop and understand body position and how this can support you.
Why do we love roller dance so much?
It fosters a sense of belonging when folks are able to dance together. Roller dance is incredibly powerful and we have had the privilege of being in spaces where skaters don't speak the same language, but are able to join in with the same steps in dance.
It supports fantastic footwork and technique that will support all other forms of roller skating. Especially balance.
It doesn't require a lot of room, so you can practise in a smaller space - like The Skate Sanctuary!
It's great fun.
It's a fabulous warm up
You will become a more confident skater and learn to be more patient with yourself.
Skate Hire
Skate hire is available from the front desk for £3 per session - you can pay by cash or card
Drinking water is available and we have a selection of hot and cold refreshments for sale.

Pilgrimage Of The Womb: Day Retreat (with Felicity Weston) | ookushana Workshop
Jun 8, 2025 (UTC+1)
Leeds
Sunday 8th June
10 am - 5:30 pm
Invitation:
This day retreat is for any woman ready to traverse the wild and beautiful landscape of the womb - with the intention to meet with unintegrated parts, heal and activate this powerful portal of creation.
This day retreat combines a learning aspect with deep self-inquiry, and self-initiation through plant spirit connection, somatic movement medicine, embodiment practices, & guided shamanic journeying with sound alchemy.
Each energetic gate of the womb is connected to a physical part of the womb/body, so this will be deeply healing on a physical level as well as mental and emotional - which are all intrinsically interwoven.
Although we have a destination in mind and heart (the 8th gate - the Void of creation), this journey is about exactly that - the journey - and every thought, feeling and emotion that rises along the way, as we meet ourselves more deeply.
The gates of the womb are each connected with different archetypal energies, elements, energies, shadows and gifts of wisdom.
Our primary intention is to become whole and integrated, by connecting to all parts of ourselves, through the magical portal that is our womb.
What To Expect Within Ceremony:
Grounding Meditation & Heart-Womb Connection
Plant Medicine Ceremony (Cacao + Rose)
Collaborative Journey Through The 8 Gates - Contemplation & Altar Creation
Womb-healing Luncheon
Somatic Movement Medicine & Embodiment Journey
Sacred Sound Journey & Light Language Activation
Conscious Closing
Who Is This For?
This journey is open to ALL women who are called to connect with and heal their womb - particularly women who are feeling disconnect with their sensuality, purpose or creativity, or struggling with physical womb issues, fertility issues, birth trauma or sexual trauma, and those carrying the weight of ancestral trauma.
Energy Exchange:
£144

About Your Guide:
Amy is a sound healer and sacred space holder currently on a year long shamanic training.
After the sudden death of her mother at an early age Amy went into a world of partying, staying in a safe office job all masking her true self for years. It was only after she received some reiki that things started to change. A new path opened up and she trained in reiki herself.
But it was sound that had the most profound effect. Sound activated her throat chakra to channel light language - it's been a wild ride!
And so Sacred Sounds emerged and that's where Amy finds herself today - helping others remember who they are.
Please Note:
Space is limited at ookushana Workshop, so please book ahead to avoid disappointment!

Leeds Digital Ball 2025 | Royal Armouries Museum
Jun 12, 2025 (UTC+1)
Leeds
Want more than 3 tickets? Book here!
The fourth annual Leeds Digital Charity Ball takes place on the 12th June 2025, at the Royal Armouries Museum.
The 2025 Leeds Digital Charity Ball will be hosted at The Royal Armouries, New Dock Hall, and will bring together over 500 members of the North’s Digital and Technology community.
Whether you want to make new connections or see old friends, we have everyone in the room, from CTOs and CDIOs to entry-level talent. This is your chance to build meaningful relationships and even do some business while raising money for Leeds Community Foundation.
Introduction
Digital exclusion continues to be a major issue, with people living in digital poverty increasingly left out in a world where everything has become digital-first. To bridge the divide, people need access to three key things: equipment, connectivity, and skills.
Collaboration is key. With a group of board members and supporters from across the Leeds region, we have come together to ignite the tech community through an annual charity ball, creating a powerhouse fighting a common goal: helping the disadvantaged, abolishing digital exclusion, and driving positive change.
Digital technology and the internet can transform lives by creating opportunities and providing support where it’s needed most. To tackle the underlying causes of digital exclusion, we have created the annual Leeds Digital Charity Ball to challenge the digital divide and raise funds so more people can develop skills and access the technology needed to live in a digital world.
Impact So Far
In total, we have raised £225,000 since 2021. Last year, the ball was a sellout event, raising over £65,000, which directly supports Leeds Community Foundation, small charities, and community organisations within the city to help local people.
With support from 100% Digital Leeds, Leeds Community Foundation funds projects that take various approaches to addressing the digital divide in our communities, from one-to-one and group digital skills sessions to training digital champions. From using art to teach digital skills to providing support for those who are deaf or hard of hearing, organisations are tailoring their work to meet their communities’ needs.
