Clay Date with Yoga & Brunch Graz in September 2024

  • LENDLOFT Lendplatz 40 Graz, Steiermark, 8020 Austria (map)

This event beautifully weaves together the profound benefits of yoga and the heartfelt connection to clay. It fuses the anchoring qualities of a mindful, body-awareness yoga practice with the emotional resonance of working with your hands and immersing yourself in the earthy, soul-stirring nature of clay.


YOGA PRACTICE At LENDLOFT

Embrace the love for your body. In this tender body awareness practice, delve into the intricate nuances of how each part of your being feels and responds. Amidst the constant chatter of the mind throughout the day, we often overlook the silent wisdom of our physical form. Engage in this exploration with an open heart, inviting curiosity to be your guide.

+ KUNSTHAUSCAFÉ BRUNCH

Vegan Brunch + one hot beverage of your choice.


+ CLAY HANDBUILDING WORKSHOP

Delicate. Gentle. Tender. Steady.

Redirect your senses from the vibrant external world to embrace the softness of clay. Immerse yourself in the unfolding of this natural process, discovering the nuanced balance of pressure required to mold and shape it in the cradle of your hands. This is your space to commune with your creative essence, guided solely by intuition.

We are going to fire and glaze your pieces. As soon as they are ready to be picked up to find a new home, you'll be informed. It usually takes 3-4 weeks. In addition to your hands, wooden tools are used in the handbuilding technique to mold the form. There will be no pottery wheel work done in this workshop.


It's not necessary to have any prior experience with clay handbuilding or yoga.

Spoken Language: English (we also speak German)

4. Sometimes things break :( 

The processes of drying, firing, and glazing are intricate and require careful handling. While we strive to complete your piece with the utmost care, we cannot guarantee the survival of all objects throughout the journey. If, unfortunately, any issues arise during these processes, we will promptly notify you and work together to find a suitable solution.

5. Glazing and pickup
Each piece undergoes also glazing by our team, allowing you the opportunity to select your preferred glaze color during the event. The completion of this process typically requires 3-4 weeks before your piece is ready for pickup. To ensure the safe transport of your crafted treasure, we recommend bringing a bag for the journey home.
