YOGA & CLAY - SELF-EXPRESSION & MINDFULNESS
This event is the perfect blend of the benefits of yoga and clay. A combination of the grounding qualities of a mindful, body-awareness yoga practice mixed with working with your hands and immersing yourself in the earthiness of clay.
+ BODY AWARENESS YOGA PRACTICE
It's time to love your body. In this body awareness practice you will notice how various parts of your body are feeling and responding. Most of the day we are engrossed in the activities of the mind, and are not always aware of what our physical body is experiencing. Explore and stay curious.
“Yoga is the artwork of awareness on the canvas of body, mind, and soul.”
Amit Ray
+TURNHALLE BRUNCH
Buffet style vegetarian brunch with vegan options + choice of Prosecco or Juice and one hot beverage with the choice of Cappuccino/Chai Latte or Tea.
+ CLAY HANDBUILDING WORKSHOP
Fragile. Tender. Soft. Stable.
Well nourished, we will draw our senses back inward from a vibrant environment to connect with the softness of clay. We will introduce you to the process of working with this natural material and you will learn how much pressure is needed to expand and shape it in your hands.
During our clay workshop the focus will be on the sense of touch to shape your individual cup or bowl. So you can connect to you creative self and follow your intuition. There is time and space to find your meditative flow in creating a piece of art. Invite curiosity and play to lead your way.
Your piece will be fired and glazed by us. You will be notified as soon as it is ready to be picked up to find it's new home. Usually it takes about 6 weeks.
Besides your hands the handbuilding technique includes the use of wooden tools to shape the form. This workshop does not include any work on the potter's wheel.
Prior knowledge of yoga as well as working with clay is not required.
Language spoken: English & German
We will provide yoga mats for you.

EXPERIENCES FROM OUR LAST EVENT
FAQ’S
1. Do people come together, in groups or alone?
50% of attendees are joining us alone and are ready to make new friends and have a good time. The other 50% come with their best friend, partner, mother, father, sister, brother, or group of friends and family.
2. What level of yoga?
Yoga is for everyone from beginners to advanced practitioners. Please let us know of any injuries or special medical conditions before our first day of meeting. We'll observe and suggest adjustments to your pose according to your physical needs. You are free to tailor the practice to suit your needs and we are here to talk about your practice anytime.
3. What level is the clay workshop?
The clay workshops are intended for people who are into the material and want to know more about it and take time to connect the flow of creativity with their yoga practice. Also more experienced people in pottery art are welcome but please be aware that you can only take a limited amount of pieces home with you.
4. Sometimes things break :(
Drying, firing and glazing are delicate processes. We give our best to finish your beauty but we cannot guarantee that all objects survive the journey. In case something happens to your piece during the process we will inform you and find a solution (e.g. participation at the clay part of one of the next events)
5. Glazing and pickup
All pieces are glazed by us. You can choose your glaze color at the event. It usually takes 4-6 weeks until you can pick up your piece. Please bring a bag to transport your treasure home safely.
6. What Languages do you speak?
Yoga and clay classes are held in English but everything can be explained in German.
