Quick Overview

Join us for an immersive therapeutic experience filled with yoga, meditation, breathwork and pottery. 

The lovely Sabrina, from Asana Tribe, will start the Mini Mindfulness Retreat off by taking us through Yoga Flow, Meditation, Yoga Nidra (sleep meditation) as well as Pranayama (breathwork). Sabrina’s teachings are welcomed to all persons, as someone who does not believe in levels but rather able bodies, which gives everyone the opportunity to share the practice and energy together. Her classes are filled with a gentle calm, soft strength and light humour, creating a safe and brave space. As each individual will have their own experience with the yoga and meditation we will share in a connective, serene and mindful energy that we can use to fully immerse into the experience of creation and creativity.

We will then move into a fully guided pottery session which will allow you to express your creativity by working with the earth. Our goal at Tarryn & Craig Ceramics is to provide a calm, relaxing and unrushed environment so that you have the most therapeutic and stress-free experience. For us, it isn't about creating for the sake of it, but rather being mindful and present so that you are able to create meaningful pieces that will last you a lifetime. We believe that being surrounded by the RIGHT energy is what makes an experience memorable. This is why we focus on providing good, happy, positive ENERGY so that you leave the retreat feeling amazing, inspired and energized.
