3-Day Immersive Workshop
A focused and intimate space to engage deeply with material, perception, and process
This workshop is conceived as a complete cycle.
Time is essential — allowing the work to unfold with precision, attention, and clarity.
The approach moves beyond technique.
It integrates breath, body awareness, and presence into the act of making.
Over three days, we’ll explore:
– preparation of clay and direct contact with the material
– shaping by hand and/or slow wheel work
– refinement of form and sensitivity
– firing process and observation
Each session is limited to one or two participants, ensuring a personal and concentrated experience.

5-Day Immersive Workshop
For 1–2 participants. A focused and intimate experience
This immersive workshop offers time to slow down and enter deeply into the relationship between clay, breath, movement, tea, and perception.
The teaching is based on sensitivity, direct experience, and attention rather than productivity alone.
Over five days, we’ll explore:
– preparation of clay and direct engagement with the material
– shaping by hand and/or slow wheel work
– refinement of form through observation and repetition
– firing process and reading of surfaces
– tea tasting and sensory exploration
– breath and body awareness integrated into the creative process
Each workshop is adapted to the participant and unfolds progressively according to rhythm, attention, and process.
