Sauna and Plunge

Immerse yourself in scandi-chic nirvana, designer saunas, invigorating plunge pods, and wellness classes. Give an experience of luxurious calm.

There are two delightfully designer saunas - one traditionally heated, the other by infrared and the space is edged with 3D printed (really) plunge pods. They are the epitome of smart. Divided from each other by glass screens they are defined by their coldness.  6 degrees for the hardened plunger, 8 or 10 degrees if you want a slow build, or if you aren’t feeling up to a total dip there is a shower for a quick, sharp shock.  There is a maximum of eight people per session, so overcrowding is never going to be an issue. TELL ME MOREThe studio also offers wellness classes. There are up to three classes a day to choose from, guaranteed to have you floating on air for the rest of the day. Breathing is core to these workshops. Learning how to control your breathing promotes deep relaxation, helping you to sleep better and release tension. Combine one of these classes with a sauna and plunge session, and it can literally change the way you look at life.So take the plunge, join the well-being movement. No hair shirt, just a calm, luxurious, exclusive experience, complete with a boutique cafe.

The atmosphere buzzes from early evening until late. It's moody and twinkling with velvet banquettes and leather chairs. Here you will be tasting a wine cocktail expertly designed by the in-house mixologist. Gin-based with a Chardonnay wine. Ssshh... the rest of the ingredients are known only to the house. There will be a shared tapas platter to complement the cocktail.Our last choice is a short hop and a skip rather than a walk, where the fusion of Mediterranean and Japanese should excite and delight. The interior is dark with exposed brickwork and copper. Here you will be tasting two rice wines or sake. A mini flight alongside a food pairing.

On walls and floors, tiles and dishes. It makes any surface look rather Mediterranean, and we could all use a bit of that. It started as an ideal way to reuse stone offcuts - and we aren’t talking 1970’s or 1950’s.  In the 16th-century recycling by laying on the chips was the hot ticket for interiors.   Francesca will be talking through the basics in this lovely, and very colourful plant pot workshop.  Using Jesomite, a water based resin as the base you will learn how to pigment this versatile material and make your own unique terrazzo chips in the process. Once you have the coloured pieces, you will cast your plant pot and pour your creation into silicone moulds.  They will then sand and seal and your pot will be ready to take home. THE ALL IMPORTANT DETAILS Apron and gloves are provided, and while the pots are drying out, refreshments will be provided.  This class takes place in their Shoreditch studio at least once a month, at the weekend (usually Saturday but also some Sundays).  The class is 3.5 hours and will be kept to 10 people maximum.     HOW DOES IT WORK?

The Medieval Wine Tour London

An immersive historical wine tasting tour in London led by acclaimed historian and broadcaster Dr Matthew Green. WHAT'S THIS ALL ABOUT? A plague pit as a vineyard?  Really?  This is a tour around medieval London with the delightful Dr Matthew Green, and what he doesn’t know about hermit's cells, punishment rituals, and the exotic multicoloured wine that was the liquid gold of London frankly isn’t worth knowing.  In fact this is your moment to immerse yourself in the medieval metropolis, as well as sampling a coconut-shell of frothy medieval rosé, and two glasses of the more modern variety.Expect a few interactions with plague widows, local vintners and religious fanatics along the way, as costumed actors and musicians leap out when you least expect it. This is an immersive experience guaranteed to bring the old city back to life, and an excuse to stagger around the medieval streets of London. An absolute must for anyone with the slightest interest in our bawdy social history. THE ALL IMPORTANT DETAILS All you need bring is a good pair of comfy walking shoes and a thirst for knowledge. Meet in the courtyard outside Guildhall, London, EC2V . The walks are run on Saturdays or Sundays (monthly) from 2:30pm and last two-and-a-half hours, finishing in a gorgeous medieval tavern. Choose whether you want to do this walking solo or invite someone along to share the experience.    *** TIME OUT CRITICS’ CHOICE *** – 4/5 stars: “The winning Dr Matthew Green paints a lively picture of Medieval London…There can’t be many walking tours that take the ‘getting you drunk’ bit almost as seriously as the history bit.
