Sanctuary
The main hall from the other end, with a long cushioned window seat and cane chairs on a wooden floor

A room where curious people gather to create, connect, and just be.

No good event survives a bad environment. So we made somewhere small and home-like for people who need a real reason to leave home and a good enough reason to stay. You belong here.

The people in the room

  • Aditi Chugh

    Aditi Chugh

    Founder

    Aditi is an interdisciplinary somatic and expressive arts practitioner working at the intersection of embodiment, creativity, and community practice. She studied English Literature and Anthropology through a liberal arts framework, which left her with a lasting interest in storytelling, human behaviour, culture, and collective systems.

    Her path has run through writing, advertising, marketing, sustainability research, public policy, and disability advocacy before converging into body-based creative practice for other creatives and neurocomplex people.

    Through workshops and community spaces, she explores how artistic expression and embodied awareness can build deeper connection, reflection, and presence.

  • Nikhil

    Nikhil

    Guitar Classes

    With over ten years of performing and teaching, Nikhil understands the hesitation, the self-doubt, and the everyday pressures that keep people away from music. So he builds a calm, supportive space where questions are welcome and learning happens through listening, observing, and exploring.

    Together you’ll work through the London College of Music syllabus, at your own pace.

    Who is this for? Beginner-friendly, for every kind of person, at every level. Gentle.

  • Apoorva

    Apoorva

    Painting Classes

    Apoorva’s work is rooted in biomorphic abstraction: organic, nature-inspired forms built from intricate linework, flowing patterns, and a quiet sense of the hypnotic. She works across acrylic, gouache, ink, soft pastels, and coloured pencils, drawing on nature, photography, and music: the things she returns to in both her art and her teaching.

    Who is this for? People who want a space to slow down and make something beautiful. For the person who says they can’t draw, as much as for those who already create and want to go deeper.

    Come with curiosity. Leave with something you made.

  • Tejaswini

    Tejaswini

    Crochet Club

    Tejaswini brings thirty years of crocheting into every session, with a love for the craft that shows in everything she makes. Clothes, blankets, jewellery, toys, flowers. She’ll teach you all of it.

    Who is this for? Everyone. Each session stands on its own, and the club runs continuously through the month, so you can join at any time. Different experience levels learn together on purpose.

    Just starting out or already familiar with the craft, you’re always welcome here.

  • Anushya

    Anushya

    Western Vocals

    Anushya sees singing as two things at once: a psychosomatic journey shaped by your relationship with yourself, and a personal sport built on muscle memory over time.

    So her approach goes beyond technique. She works with belief systems, physical well-being, and a syllabus tailored to each student, because no two voices are the same.

    Who is this for? Sessions cover technical fine-tuning, genre studies, daily exercises, and graded exam training, all shaped around where you actually are. Beginners and intermediate students are both welcome.

  • Amaan

    Amaan

    Neurosomatic Yoga

    Amaan’s path here wasn’t straightforward. It moved through childhood trauma, burnout, chronic pain, skill regression, and the long work of identity. But it led somewhere good: a settled ease in a neurodivergent, queer self, and a genuine wish to offer that possibility to others.

    Who is this for? People who are wary of their pain and uncertain about movement. Together, we learn to read what the body is trying to say.

    Beginner-friendly, for every kind of body, at every fitness level. Gentle.
