Gathering Essence

Gathering Essence, located in the heart of Edinburgh, offers sports players an opportunity to enhance their physical and mental well-being through Embodied Biodynamic Meditation. Helmed by the experienced Tez Sawicki, the studio draws on Daoist and Buddhist movement and meditation practises, merged with modern Biodynamic principles.

Players can participate in weekly classes, available both in-person and online, where they can practice Daoyin Qigong and Taiji Qigong forms. These sessions offer a balanced blend of movement and meditation for a holistic approach to self-care and relaxation.

For those seeking a deeper experience, Tez organises weekend workshops and residential retreats, including the sought-after Spring Retreat at Cardy Net House in Fife. This retreat, exclusive to levels 2 and 3 students, provides an immersive experience in a serene setting, perfect for focused practice and connection with peers.

Beyond meditation, Gathering Essence also offers Craniosacral Therapy. With four distinct therapists, the studio has gained a reputation for this gentle yet powerful form of bodywork, promoting tension relief and vitality.
