Community Workshops

Education and embodied practice for community settings, groups and wellbeing studios

Help people understand their bodies, feel more supported, and connect with menstrual health and their cycles

This work is grounded, accessible, inclusive and designed to meet people where they are

Most people have never been properly taught how their cycles work

They’ve been left to guess what their symptoms mean and push through pain, fatigue and burnout.

The work I deliver on the ground in communities provides:

  • holistic approach - science informed, intuition-led

  • education and information on menstrual health and lunar cycles

  • a safe space to explore their own cycles

  • knowledge to understand their bodies more clearly

  • practical ways of supporting themselves

  • more connected, informed and compassionate spaces

By supporting people in spaces where they already feel safe and connected to their wellbeing, we can reduce shame and stigma around menstrual health and help people align to their natural rhythms.

What I deliver

I offer community workshops and group sessions in two core formats which can also be blended together in bespoke sessions depending on the needs of your group.

If you’re looking for formal training for your internal teams, click here.

  • Accessible, practical sessions that introduce the basics in a way that feels clear, inclusive and easy to engage with.

    They’re designed to help people:

    • understand what is happening in their body

    • make sense of symptoms, patterns and energy shifts

    • reduce shame, confusion and stigma

    • learn practical ways of supporting themselves

    • build a more informed and compassionate relationship with their body

    Topics can include:

    • Menstrual health - including understanding your cycle and hormones

    • Menopause and perimenopause

    • Cycle-synced fitness routines and nutrition

    • Cyclical Living and living in line with natural rhythms

    • Endometriosis, PCOS, PMDD and PMS

    • LGBTQ+ including Trans and Non-Binary health

    • Neurodiversity and the cycle

    Sessions can be 60-90 minutes for introductory concepts, or 2-4 hours to include more depth, and interactive elements with practical applications.

  • Guided, practitioner-led sessions that help people slow down, reconnect and integrate what they are learning through the body.

    These sessions are designed to help people:

    • reconnect with their body in a supported way

    • regulate their nervous system

    • slow down and reflect

    • feel grounded, held and more present

    • experience wellbeing as something lived, not just understood

    Sessions can include:

    • guided meditation

    • somatic movement

    • nervous system regulation practices

    • grounding and restorative practices

    • journalling and reflective prompts

    • circle-based facilitation

    • ritual and ceremonial elements

    • moon circles and seasonal sessions

    • oracle-supported reflection where appropriate

    These sessions are 60-90 minutes and work well for groups looking for something more experiential, reflective or restorative.

  • Tailored sessions designed around the specific needs of your audience, community or client base.

    This might look like:

    • a menstrual health workshop followed by guided meditation

    • a cyclical living session with somatic reflection

    • a burnout and nervous system workshop with restorative practice

    • a circle or ceremony grounded in education and body awareness

    • a session designed specifically for your community, clients or members

    Bespoke sessions are ideal where:

    • your audience has a specific identity or need

    • you want to combine learning with practice

    • you’re looking for something more tailored than a standard workshop

    • you want a session that reflects the tone and values of your space

About Me

I’m a Certified Menstrual Coach, wellbeing consultant and EDI trainer working at the intersection of health, systems and culture.

With over 13 years’ experience across charity, wellbeing and grassroots communities - I bring a combination of environmental psychology, community practice and holistic health into my work.

As Co-Founder of Manchester’s first queer-run wellbeing studio and through years of facilitation, mentoring, voluntary work and EDI-focused practice, I bring professional structure with a relaxed energy.

My work is grounded, evidence-based and trauma informed. I bring lived experience to my work as somebody with Stage 4 Endometriosis and a proud member of the LGBTQ+ community. As such my practice prioritises intersectionality and affirmative approaches.

I’m passionate about working in communities to reduce stigma, connect people to their bodies and give them the tools they always should have had.

    - Katie

  • "I can't believe we didn't learn this stuff in school when it effects everything!"

    - Laura

    - Carly
