You are not just a dancing body;
You are a feeling heart,
A thinking mind,
A creative soul,
A unique expression of spirit.

This dancefloor is for the whole of you.

The 5Rhythms ® movement practice was originated by Gabrielle Roth, and is described as "the dancing path from inertia to ecstasy". It is suitable for people of all ages and levels of physical ability. You don't have to consider yourself a dancer.

Learn to transform the creative and natural energy of anger into artistic expression and self acceptance.

In this immersive one-day workshop, you will be guided in a safe and supportive space to explore anger as a catalyst for creativity (as opposed to destruction) through a blend of experiential, body-based and art-focused exercises.

On Valentine’s Day 1900, students from Appleyard College, a girls’ private school in Victoria, Australia, embark on a field trip to an unusual volcanic formation called Hanging Rock.

It’s not until the end of the day that the group realise that some of their party have mysteriously disappeared. Returning to the big screen to celebrate its 50th anniversary in a dazzling 4K restoration, Peter Weir’s adaptation of Joan Lindsay’s novel has lost none of its mystique or mesmerising power.

Join us for this study day to learn all about Queen Victoria's life, personality and achievements.

We are amused. Not just a serious old lady dressed in black and scowling at the camera, Queen Victoria had a long life full of many contradictions, from bright vivacious saviour of the monarchy to surviving 7 assassination attempts.

Join us to look at her early life, marriage and children, her visit to Leeds and her very own annus horribilus.

Booking essential see Tickets below.
