Sometimes we just need some encouragement from others, or not to be alone with this. Other times we might have very specific questions or need support with an admin task. Or someone who signs our deed poll, proof reads an email, helps us to write a complaint.
Whatever you are bringing to the sessions, chances are that someone else has experience with this or tips for you.

2026-01-19 18:00 - 20:00 UTC
Starting in December and continuing into 2026, Queer Minds will be hosting monthly movement sessions on the 3rd Monday of every month from 6-8pm!
We’re excited to be collaborating with Anton Reuben Young for our first three sessions – Yoga for Beginners.
These sessions are open to everyone regardless of your level of experience with yoga, though it will be led at a gentle pace and suitable for those who have never tried yoga before.

Yoga mats and other props will be provided! Just arrive on time wearing comfortable clothing suitable for movement.

About the facilitator
Anton is a London-based yoga teacher who has been guiding students since completing his teacher training in 2017. His approach to yoga is rooted in curiosity, creativity, and compassion—always encouraging students to explore movement in a way that feels authentic and empowering to their individual bodies.
With a deep appreciation for both the strength and subtlety of the human form, Anton weaves anatomy-informed sequencing with playful exploration. His classes are grounded in functional movement and strength-building, often themed around specific muscle groups or intriguing ways of moving. You’ll find a healthy dose of humour and lightness in his teaching style—he believes yoga can be both profound and playful, challenging and deeply human.
Whether you’re wobbling, wiggling, or meeting your edge, Anton creates a space where students can learn, laugh, and connect with themselves on and off the mat.

Together, we will put South London’s LGBTQ+ heritage on the map!

Breathwork
2026-01-18 10:30 - 11:30, 2026-01-11 10:30 - 11:30 (Europe/London)
By exploring yourself through breath you’ll learn the tools which are useful every day if you find yourself in a stressful situation.

We start of by shaking off our body’s to lose tension, once we’ve done a quick shake we settle down in a sacred circle, checking the way we breathe without controlling our breath. This involves moving into just noticing where our breathe is and how it flow through our body.
Slowly we start to consciously connect your breath to the rhythm of the breathing exercise we will go through, elevating our energy of love together and connecting on a higher deeper level with oneonother.
Closing up with a sacred circle by voluntary sharing your experience, feeling oneness and a big group hug.

The aim of the Queer Armenian Social is to create a regular opportunity for queer Armenians to meet and make friends who understand them in their entirety – their queerness and Armenian-ess alike. This is our space.

Dope Black Queers: The Forum
2026-01-11 16:30 - 19:30 UTC
Dope Black Queers is a space for and by the Black LGBTQIA+ community to provide grounding, connection, and feel seen and heard.
The Forum follows a Town Hall Meeting format, less like a panel, but more of an open floor discussion.
This is an event where we can really talk about the things that matter to us, to raise questions and find answers both for ourselves and for others.
Our specific life experiences give each of us different perspectives, and that is what we want everyone to come and share, because it is in the specifics that we can relate and build community.
Whilst participation is encouraged, no one has to share if they don’t want to.
But the more interaction, the more there is to learn.
Come meet new people, build a community, and share your perspective.
This event is exclusively for the Black LGBTQIA+ community! (Allies are welcome to donate to help continue our work.)

BSL Practice Meetup
2026-01-11 13:30 - 15:30 (Europe/London)
A place for LGBTQ+ people who are learning British Sign Language, or curious to start, to meet up and practice conversation.

BSL Practice Meetups are for LGBTQ+ people learning BSL, or curious to start, to get together and chat in a semi-structured environment.
We welcome people of all levels to come along and have a go, whether it’s your first time or you’ve been signing for a while.
We won’t have a teacher, it’s more of an informal learning environment- as much a place to meet other queer people who share your interest as it is a place to learn a language.
