Our Founder, Sonam, will be speaking at the Derby Impact Awards 2026 on Thursday 19th November!

Since starting Manasi, our mission has been to bring people together through movement, music and mentorship, creating spaces where people can connect, learn and grow.

Following Manasi’s win last year, it’s our pleasure to be invited to speak at an event celebrating all the people making a difference in Derby. We’re proud of how far Manasi has come and excited to share a little more of our journey.

Thank you to everyone who has supported, attended, partnered with or believed in what we’re building. You’re part of this journey too. 🫶🏽

Meet Grant Igbokwe 📸 As part of our Sport England funded programme, Men on Mats, we’re sharing one man’s story each month, stories that are also featured in our Men’s Collective magazine.

Grant is a content creator and presenter who understands the power of taking control of your own journey. His perspective is a reminder that physical activity is about more than just moving your body, it’s about having the freedom to challenge yourself, push your limits and show up for you.

When reflecting on the impact of physical activity, Grant shared:

“It gives you a chance to be in control. When you’re doing physical activity, you’re in charge of how much energy you expend. You can literally give it your all and know you’re doing this for you.”

In a world where so much can feel outside of our control, movement offers an opportunity to reconnect with ourselves. Whether it’s pushing through a workout, trying something new or simply showing up, every step is a chance to invest in your own wellbeing.

At Men on Mats, we believe movement is about more than physical health. It’s about creating space for men to prioritise themselves, build meaningful connections and explore their wellbeing in an environment that’s welcoming, supportive and free from judgement.

Follow along as we continue to share the voices and experiences of men in our community, and join us at our next session.

We met Vex King✨🩵🤩

Last year, our Founder, Sonam, stumbled across his book Good Vibes, Good Life at the airport. She picked it up and opened a random page, which happened to be a dedication to his mother. This resonated deeply with Sonam, and it was all she needed to read to purchase the book🩵

She was glued to it for the entirety of her holiday and began a journey of self-discovery. Thanks to Vex for shining his light, Sonam was able to find hers. 🩵

Something as simple as picking up a book at an airport became the catalyst for something much bigger. The Manasi Foundation and its duty to serve the community.

Thank you, Vex. We are forever in debt to you. 🩵✨📚

Skincare, self-care and community. 🤍

As part of The Manasi Foundation’s Women’s Collective, we hosted a skincare workshop designed to create a space for women to learn, connect and take some time for themselves.

From understanding different skin types and building a skincare routine, to exploring products and techniques, the session was practical, interactive and most importantly, a chance to come together.

We believe wellbeing is about more than exercise. It’s about creating opportunities to learn, develop, connect and invest in yourself.

This workshop was one of the many ways we’re bringing our mission to life through Movement, Music and Mentorship, creating accessible spaces that support self-development and wellbeing across generations.

A big thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the session so special. 🌱
