Join Dr Anthony Sharkey for a talk and live demo of Bowen therapy and how this gentle, hands-on approach might complement your Yoga practice

A talk and live demonstration with Dr Anthony Sharkey

Many of us come to yoga to feel more at home in our bodies—to move freely, ease discomfort and find a little stillness. But sometimes back or neck pain, stiffness or recurring tension persists despite regular practice.

During the evening, we’ll explore:

What Bowen Therapy is—what happens during a session and how this gentle, hands-on approach differs from physiotherapy and osteopathy.

Fascia and pain—what fascia is and how it may contribute to persistent back and neck discomfort.

Bowen alongside yoga—how it might complement your existing practice and interest in easier, more comfortable movement.

Live demonstration and questions

There will be a live demonstration and time for questions, with the opportunity to volunteer to experience Bowen for yourself.

Whether you’re a regular yoga practitioner, a teacher, or simply curious about greater comfort and ease in your body, you’re very welcome. No yoga experience is needed.
