Our approach — loosen up for life

We work from the “felt field” — arriving, releasing, and letting expression arise. Sessions are co-created rather than performed at you. You’re welcome to move or rest, join in or simply listen. Either way, you belong here.

Tuning In CIC is a not-for-profit based in North Manchester. Donations keep our community groups open to all.

Do I need to book or can I drop in?

Booking helps us plan and guarantees your spot, but if there’s space you’re welcome to drop in.

Is it okay if my child just watches?

Absolutely. Observing is participation. Many children join in more as they feel safe and ready.

Can siblings come?

Yes. If you’re unsure which group fits, add a note when booking and we’ll advise.
