SOFT LANDINGS – LONDON’S FIRST SLOW MOVEMENT EVENT

Soft Landings is a space where you come to receive joy, nourishment and stillness in the city. In Soft Landings your name, title and occupation do not matter. This is a place for the raw, authentic you to emerge.

Tamuka Productions – the team behind the dance movement Morning Gloryville – has announced Soft Landings, a pioneering wellness event, designed to bring joy, nourishment and stillness to the people of London. Conscious influencers, city workers and visitors alike can come together in a wifi-free zone, and enjoy a sunrise experience, lunchtime rhythms, and an after-work concert with surprise guest appearances. The one day event will take place on Friday 1st February, as part of Strong Island, the new  fitness and wellness festival at Canary Wharf.

Taking place between 6am and 9am, the Sunrise Experience is the ultimate antidote to the morning rush hour commute. Allowing city works to stop battling crowds, and instead enjoy a morning of symphony and relaxation. Participants can expect to be whisked into an immersive hideaway with yoga and QiGong sessions run by Sweat & Sound, suitable for all levels of fitness and experience the sessions will feature an enchanting and euphoric live orchestra. Cherabella will be there to help refine concentration levels, reduce stress, and improve sleep with their 40-piece sound healing collective, along with mediation. Partakers will also be able to awaken their senses with sensory experience specialists BitterSuite symphonies, where they will experience a tantalising concert of sound and senses.

The one part of the day that’s supposed to offer a moment’s respite is the lunch break, but all-too-often it slips away, due to a barrage of meetings, emails, and calls. Fortunately, Soft Landings has that covered too. The Lunchtime Rhythms session takes place between 12pm and 2pm, and is a perfect opportunity to reboot in time for a busy afternoon back in the office. Consult self care love doctors and specialist wellness consultants, indulge in delicious vegan street food, and kick back to a set by a Felix Buxton (Basement Jaxx).

When the end of the working day finally rolls around, it’s never quite as simple as switching off and slowing down. Already thinking about meetings for the following week, or a hectic weekend ahead, Soft Landing’s After-Work Concert is here to make unwinding a lot easier.

It’s the perfect time to relax with friends and enjoy mouth-watering mocktails, as well as taking in the sounds from London’s captivating Alxndr London and Holly Roxanne, an afro-beats orchestra, and surprise guest appearances.
