Cut the noise. Roll on self-care. Part of #notjustafilmmaker - a new space for wellness, connection, and community.

May 28, 2025

Hey there, wonderful filmmaker!

Still hanging in there?

Maybe it’s time to step away from the desk, stretch it out, and connect with others who also get what this industry means! That’s why ConneKt Film is launching #notjustafilmmaker - an event series for the many people in film who do more than just make movies. From editors to costume designers, camera ops to sound artists, this is your space to recharge, reflect, and rediscover your passions beyond the frame.

And it all begins with our first event: Film Flow.

🎬 Film Flow: Slow Down and Reflect with Yoga, Journaling & Connection

🗓️ Date: Saturday, June 7, 2025
⏰ Time: 5:30 PM - 7:30 PM
📍 Location: the Base, 2233 Dundas St W, Toronto (via AM Coffee Studio)
🚗 Free parking available at Loblaws across the street
👕 Attire: Comfortable activewear
✍️ Bring: Your own journal and water bottle

Join us for Film Flow, a unique experience blending yoga, storytelling, and meaningful connection - where your personal journey takes center stage. Through movement, reflection, and conversation, we’ll explore what it means to live your story with intention.

✨ What’s in the flow:

  1. 🧘🏻‍♀️ Yoga Through a Story Arc - Led by Kyra, founder of The Peace Pursuit and the Base, this session guides you through a journey that mirrors a film’s structure - from slow build to peak to peaceful resolution.

  2. 📖 Journaling & Visualization - Reflect on where you are and where you're going with gentle prompts and space to process.

  3. 🗣️ Real Talk & Tea - No formal networking, no wine-glass performances - just honest conversation, shared goals, and creative connection over warm mugs and snacks.

This is not about finding your next gig. It’s about finding friends who understand your creative life outside of work.
