A contemplative and immersive sound, meditation breath-work experience

Ramsgate's chalk and flint cliffs were created 60-100 million years ago by a billion souls of life that lived in the water that once covered this ancient landscape.

Join us in the caves of a unique Ramsgate residence,  and immerse yourself in the ever present now, as the drum of life beats on. We'll take you on a sensorial journey underground to discover our connection with the coccoliths and the ammonites,  and how their calcified creation resonates with now...

 

With Charlotte Ellis, Andy Waterworth and Pablo Hussey
