Workshops and Events at Soulstone

Not everything fits into a 60 minute weekly class. Some things need a full afternoon, a specialist, or a room set up entirely differently.

Our workshops cover the practical and the personal: emergency skills for parents, psychologist led conversations about parenthood, and sound sessions for deep rest. Each one is led by someone who does this work properly, and each runs on set dates rather than weekly.

New workshops are added regularly. The current dates are always in the schedule.

Essential life saving skills for anyone looking after a baby or small child.

The course covers basic life support, choking, fevers, seizures, head injuries, allergic reactions and recovery. It is built for real life rather than for a textbook, and there is always space to ask the questions that are actually on your mind.

Clare Vogt is a Senior Emergency and Intensive Care Nurse with over a decade of frontline experience and a mother of two. She holds nursing qualifications in both adult and children's nursing, has worked in paediatric and neonatal intensive care, and qualified as an Advanced Life Support instructor in 2010.

It suits expectant parents preparing for what is ahead as much as those already deep in the early years. Grandparents, childminders and anyone else caring for a little one are welcome. Little ones can come along too.

Duration [approximately three hours]. Price [to be confirmed]. Booked through Eversports.

A series of psychologist led gatherings for parents who want to explore the emotional side of parenthood that usually goes unspoken.

Each gathering takes a different theme and combines psychological insight with guided reflection in a small group. There is no pressure to speak. Many people find the value simply in hearing that someone else has felt the same way.

This is not a parenting class and it is not group therapy. It is a space to pause and think, with someone qualified in the room.

Led by Ceren Palik, Clinical Psychologist and mother of two, founder of Nurturing Conversations.

Duration [approximately two hours]. Price [to be confirmed]. Booked through Eversports.

A session for deep rest, using sound rather than movement.

You lie down, supported by cushions and blankets, and the work is done for you. Sound meditation creates space for relaxation, regeneration and a different kind of awareness, and most people leave with the sense of having properly switched off for the first time in a while.

Katja Schendel is a music therapist, yoga and sound meditation teacher based in Berlin. She develops and delivers individualised music therapy in clinical settings, working with mental health and wellbeing, communication, movement, memory, attention and pain management, and guides sound meditations across the city.

No experience needed. Nothing is asked of you except that you lie down.

Duration [approximately 75 minutes]. Price [to be confirmed]. Booked through Eversports.

All workshops are held at Lehderstraße 26, Weißensee, ground floor. Entrance on the Roelckestraße side.

Props, mats, cushions and blankets are provided. Workshops run in [English]. Places are limited and most sell out, so booking ahead is worth it.

Workshops are booked individually and are not covered by class passes.
