Our 8 Memorable Experiences Over Mother's Day Weekend in and around Winchester.
New Energy Yoga Class - Sunday 31st March - New Energy Yoga, Winchester
Tumble down the Rabbit hole, sensory delirium fuelled by the way you want to feel. Step into the room; warm, safe, dappled by candle light. Arrive on your mat and bathe peacefully in your surroundings. Be like water- still, formless. In the distance the sound of gently trickling water, hum of a gong. Divine bird calls and wisps of incense snake through your sky. A delight of human senses and mindful rejuvenation.
A completely relaxed accessible yoga class that we recommend calling first to secure your mat.
Blend Academy Gin Workshop - Pre Book Your Experience - Winchester Distillery
In the centre of Winchester in an unassuming building a stones-throw from the High Street lives The Blend Academy. Owned by the inventive minds behind the Winchester Distillery, the academy is dedicated to the creation, tasting and enjoyment of gin. Watch the masters, learn the techniques then have the chance to blend your own gin. This fantastic experience is ideal for a gin-loving Mum.
Blue Sapphire Gin Factory - Whitchurch
Staying on the gin theme, Bombay Sapphire is brewed in Laverstoke Mill preserving the heritage of what was once an old corn mill.

Theatre Royal - Jewry Street - Movement Exhibition
Alan Trussler explores movement through his paintings in this Theatre Royal exhibition. Alan says, “I like to use the lines depicting the shape of a figure to direct you over the painting: hard versus soft edges, the use of angles and complementary colours all encourage the eye to travel. Keeping contrast and detail near a focal point helps complete the journey.”
