ABOUT OUR EVENTS
At The Connect Initiative, we create experiences that bring people together in meaningful ways—gently supporting mental wellbeing, easing loneliness, and building brave, compassionate communities.
Our events are intentionally simple, grounded in care, and open to all. Whether you're seeking a peaceful pause in your week or a soul-nourishing adventure, there's a space for you here.
We offer three CONNECT experiences:


1.
CONNECT WEEKLY
Our weekly signature sessions
Gentle, grounding and heart-opening.
CONNECT is where it all begins. These 60-minute sessions blend mindful movement, calming breath-work, and guided connection activities in a welcoming, non-judgmental space.
You’ll find us in parks, beaches and open spaces across Victoria, supported by a dedicated host and a rotating team of skilled facilitators (yoga, Pilates, breath-work, sound bath, Qi Gong, TaiChi, meditation and more).
Each session flows through:
10–15 mins connection activity
40 mins movement and mindfulness
5 mins gentle, supported closing activity
Afterwards, you're invited to stay for a (self-funded) coffee and casual conversation—hosted by your local CONNECT Host.
All abilities welcome. Casual tickets and discounted monthly passes available.
2.
CONNECT +
Everything you love about CONNECT—with a little more time, care and nourishment.
CONNECT+ takes the practices of our weekly sessions and adds an enriching layer of connection—shared food, beautiful locations, and spacious time to connect more deeply with yourself and others.
These events range from 90 minutes to half a day, and include meaningful extras such as:
Shared lunches in nature
Morning tea with homemade treats
Sauna or spa experiences
Quiet reflection time in peaceful surroundings
These sessions offer added value—more time, more intention, more connection.
Ideal for: Anyone craving a deeper, more immersive connection experience.




3.
CONNECT ICONIC
Unforgettable gatherings in breathtaking locations.
ICONIC events are our most expansive offerings—bringing together everything that makes CONNECT+ so special, but held in truly remarkable places.
From coastal cliffs to lush hinterlands, botanical gardens to mountain lookouts, these events are thoughtfully designed to offer a rare kind of presence, peace, and shared joy.
Expect curated activities, a powerful sense of community, and moments of beauty you’ll carry with you long after the day ends.
Held only a few times each year.
These are the events you don’t want to miss.
Ideal for: Those ready to be inspired, uplifted and truly connected—with nature, others, and self.
