Here’s what we’re all craving… brighter, lighter, colourful spring days 🌸

✨ Spring Equinox Half Day Retreat ✨

DWC invite you to join us for a beautiful half day retreat celebrating the Spring Equinox, a time of balance, renewal, and fresh energy as we transition from winter into longer, lighter days.
As green shoots begin to appear and nature reawakens, we’ll harness this uplifting spring energy with a nurturing morning at our studio.

Expect a spring inspired yoga flow with Laura Ross Banchory Yoga, followed by an uplifting guided meditation with Lynsey Birnie Xhail with Lyns, before gently settling into a soothing and healing sound bath with Vikki Cleal Vikkiclealyoga. The perfect opportunity to reset, relax, and reconnect.

To complete the experience, Luna and Loam Café (just around the corner from the studio) will host us for a private brunch after the session,
a chance to nourish, connect, and soak up those spring vibes together 🌿

Sunday 22nd March
9-12.30pm
Deeside Wellbeing Collective Studio, Banchory

February Community Session 💕

For our February offering, join Danielle Logan for a self love Vin to Yin yoga session.

As February is the month of love, this class is an invitation to turn that love inward. We’ll gently move from a heart-opening Vinyasa flow into slower, grounding Yin poses, with space for reflection and supportive affirmations. This hour is for yourself - a chance to release pressure and judgement, and to meet your body with gratitude and care.

No experience needed - just come as you are.

This is a free/donation-based session held in a warm and welcoming community space. Just bring yourself, wear something comfy, and come as you are. All equipment is provided by the studio.

Join us for a Deeside Wellbeing Collective community session which alternates practitioners from month to month. A donation based class/workshop, free or just pay what you can.

For our January community offering, join Sandy Batho for our 65+ Pilates session. Tailored to keep everyone moving no matter the niggles, dodgy hips or sticky shoulders.

A mix of chair-based and standing Pilates designed to help you move with comfort and confidence. Using the support of a chair, you’ll explore strengthening exercises to improve joint movement, posture, mobility and balance — all without needing to get up and down from the floor.
Think seated Pilates is slow and unchallenging, think again - this class is tailored to be as challenging or as gentle as needed and really will build core strength to keep your posture perfect.

All over 65’s welcome – no previous Pilates experience needed.
Not over 65 - recommend it to your parents or elderly neighbours. Social and physical wellbeing in one tidy package.

This is a donation-based session held in a warm and welcoming community space. Just bring yourself, wear something comfy, and come as you are. All equipment is provided by the studio.

The class takes place at Deeside Wellbeing Collective studio, 11 Scott Skinner Square, Banchory.
