Therapeutic Clay Classes

Therapeutic Clay - Finger Labyrinths

two session class ($75):

• Tuesday, August 8th 10AM-1pm

• Tuesday, August 22nd, 10AM-11am

Our lives are spinning in so many directions!  Between work, home, children and perhaps elderly parents or friends that we care for, there seems to be little time for self.  Sometimes all that is needed is a short period of time when we can block out other needs and focus on ourselves.  A time to center ourselves, rest our minds, relax  and recover balance of life.  The labyrinth is like a journey to our own center and back out into the world again. Often, they are used for meditation and prayer. This form of self-reflection and healing is small and compact, meaning it can be taken wherever you go!  

In the first session, we will discuss further how labyrinths can be used.  A demonstration on how to create a labyrinth will follow.  The majority of the class will be spent designing and making your own labyrinth.  During the second session, you can test your labyrinth out before you choose the glazes you would like to decorate yours with. Then apply the glaze to your piece.  Imagine your finger(s) gliding along the smooth, cool pathways to peace!

Therapeutic Clay - Foot Acupressure Pad

two session class ($95):

• Saturday, September 2nd, 1-3PM

• Saturday, September 16th, 1-2PM

A tired, achy body can add to the stress of a long day and dampen your spirit.  Known for its tendency to heal, acupressure can help relieve pain and tension.  Various pressure points within the feet control many parts of the body.  Applying pressure to these places in the feet can ease pain and stress to the associated body part.

The focus of this class is to create your own personalized acupressure foot mat.  To begin, you will press your bare feet into a clay slab, leaving an imprint of your feet to work with.  Feels wonderful! Trace around your imprints to form your mat.  Next, add raised clay shapes to your imprints, corresponding to pressure points within your feet.  Finish your mat as you choose.

As an added benefit to this first class, you move to our spa located just down the road from our studio for a special theraputic foot treatment.  Feel the stress leave your body!

In the second class, we will try out our bisque fired mats!  Then finish the group with glazing our pieces in the color(s) of your choice.  Enjoy!
