MANCHESTER SCHOOL OF CONNECTION

A space to belong, breathe, explore and reconnect.

Manchester School of Connection was created to bring people together in a world that feels more disconnected than ever.
We are living through a time of loneliness, polarisation, and digital distraction — yet beneath it all, every human longs for the same thing:

To feel connected.
To feel seen.
To feel a sense of belonging.

This space is for that.

Here, we gather in community to learn, explore, play, and deepen our relationship with ourselves and each other.
All workshops are fully clothed, grounded in safety, consent, and trauma-informed principles.

OUR MISSION

Manchester School of Connection is designed to:

  • Fight loneliness and support real human connection

  • Bring people together in an increasingly polarised society

  • Create a safe space to discover who you are

  • Support you to connect more deeply with others

  • Foster community, curiosity, and embodied learning

  • Help people reconnect to nature, intuition, presence, and authentic relating

This is not just a workshop series — it is a movement toward community, compassion, and human wholeness.

OUR ROOTS

The School is inspired by the ancient wisdom of Tantra, drawing from Buddhist traditions, Yogic Shaivic philosophy, and embodied relational practices.

This spiritual lineage blends seamlessly with modern psychology, nervous system understanding, and trauma-informed principles — creating a space that is both grounded and deeply transformative.

Everything we teach is centred on:

  • curiosity

  • presence

  • consent

  • connection

  • authenticity

  • community

It is a space where modern humans meet ancient wisdom — in a very accessible, inclusive, and grounded way

WHAT ARE WORKSHOPS ARE LIKE:

Every workshop is experiential, gentle, and intentionally crafted to meet you exactly where you are.

  • Partner or group connection exercises

  • Somatic & embodiment practices

  • Breathwork

  • Boundary setting

  • Exploration of desires
