Introducing Zenergi

As part of funding received from the Active Essex Foundation, SUMMIT are proud to announce ZENERGI.

ZENERGI is a free wellbeing programme for anyone aged 17–25 who want to feel more balanced, more confident, and more connected to themselves and the world around them. Life can easily become overwhelming at times and ZENERGI is designed to give young people the space, support, and practical tools to manage stress, improve wellbeing, and build resilience in a relaxed and welcoming group setting.

The programme combines the following key elements:

ZENERGI Movement

Simple, easy-to-follow movements designed to clear the mind, energise the body, and support long-term health and wellbeing. Taught by a qualified and experienced instructor, our free traditional Wu style Tai Chi inspired classes are open to everyone aged 17–25 who are looking to reduce stress, reconnect with themselves, and find greater clarity in a fast-paced world. No previous experience is needed. Sessions take place every Friday from 10–11am at the Quaker Meeting House, 6 Church St, Colchester CO1 1NF.

ZENERGI Mindfulness

Our free 10-week programme combines mindful coaching and guided meditation, specially designed to support young adults. Those who take part will have the opportunity to learn, reflect, and grow at their own pace while building confidence, self-awareness, and practical coping strategies. The sessions also encourage the development of positive habits that support long-term emotional wellbeing and resilience, helping you navigate life’s challenges with greater clarity, balance, and self-understanding.

ZENERGI Nature

Get involved in a local community growing project and be part of something active, positive and hands-on. It is a chance to get outdoors, learn simple gardening skills, and take a break from everyday stress in a calm green space. You do not need any experience, just a willingness to get stuck in, try something different, and meet new people. Whether you want to learn to grow your own food, spend more time in nature, or simply improve your wellbeing, ZENERGI Nature offers a supportive space where you can see the real impact of your efforts as things grow over time. Friendly and experienced staff will be on hand to help and guide you as you go.

Over 12 months, ZENERGI will offer a mix of face-to-face and virtual sessions, as well as additional one-to-one support when needed. Whether you want to improve your mental wellbeing, meet new people, learn practical skills, or simply take time for yourself, ZENERGI is a place to grow, connect, and thrive.
