This event repeats every week on Sunday until 16/12/18
Naturist London is a group of volunteers whose aim is to promote drop-in, inclusive naturist events in London with administrative support from BN. The regular Sunday Swim is our signature event and extremely popular. It is just like going to an ordinary public swimming pool except that costumes are banished. Unlike many traditional naturist venues, there is no booking, no membership and no commitment. You are welcome to just turn up whether or not you consider yourself a committed naturist.
Approximately once a month, BN member Emma James comes along to help with the swim and coordinate a pre-swim meet up for ladies. She also plans to organise, less frequently, an extended social programme around the swim to make a "day out in London" for those who have to travel some distance. You can contact Emma and get more details by following this link to the Naturist London Ladies Zone.
We look forward to seeing you at Naturist London. Further details can be found here.

25 Jun 2018
This event repeats every week on Monday forever
Women & Men of all shapes, sizes, colours, ages and physical abilities are welcome to attend.
Whether you are new to yoga or a long time yogi – you are welcome!
All you need is yourself, a bottle of water and a towel, mats are provided but places are limited.
The studio is equipped with infrared heaters so you will experience the pleasant feeling of warmth all over your body.
There are a number of reasons to practice naked:
While our society often equates being naked with sex, other cultures have found that being naked removes many social and economic barriers. It is also very freeing to move the body without the restriction of clothing, and yoga provides a great way to deepen body acceptance. Also, being naked can bring up many of our vulnerabilities. By facing these fears in the context of a safe and supportive community we naturally become more grounded and comfortable with ourselves.
At only 5 minutes walking from Clapham North Station, the exact address will be given only after your booking is confirmed.
To book your spot please email me at namaste@doriayoga.com stating "Monday Co-Ed Naked Yoga" on the subject.
