About The Event
A four-day retreat bringing together body and soul through deeply restorative yoga-
practices and creative ceramics.
Clay is wonderfully forgiving – and uncontrollable. Just as life.
Working with clay gives you a space where you are fully concentrated on creating your own expression and
experience. The focus is on the process, not the result. It is supported by and interacting
with a yoga practice that gently brings you in touch with yourself, towards harmony and a let go of stress and demands.
Neither an asana nor a piece of ceramics has any measures for perfection. The yoga practice and ceramic work teaches us to accept imperfection and enjoy what we have right now. During the retreat we will work with sculpting-clay, each of us making our own piece.
After the retreat the pieces will be bisque fired and sent to you. If you wish to give your piece a surface other than the
unglazed, you will get guidance and ideas on how to treat the surface at home
You will have your own space in a private or shared room, either in the main house or in one of the cozy barns in the garden, all with shared bathroom. Our guests have full access to the whole big property with its freshwater pond, flower garden, large terraces, fields, and woods. We will serve you tasty, ecological and locally grown vegetarian food.
The retreat begins on Thursday 15.8 at 17 pm and ends on Sunday 18.8 after noon. The program contains daily yoga-classes, daily ceramic workshop, three meals per day, Saturday sauna and free time to enjoy just being together – or alone.
A detailed program will be mailed to the participants.
