Live via Zoom. Fortnightly - 1/15/29 Oct, 12/26 Nov, 10 Dec - 6-8pm UK time Join artist Julie Galante for this course designed to nurture your creative practice. Together we’ll explore ways to create work that reflects your individual interests, passion, and point of view, no matter your experience level. The course content is delivered over six live Zoom sessions, in a small, welcoming group with plenty of opportunities for interaction. Additionally, there will be optional (but highly recommended) assignments to complete in between the live sessions - assignments designed to get you stuck in to your creative practice in new and interesting ways. During each live session, there will be a demonstration focusing on a particular aspect of visual art - this will include various materials, subjects, and considerations such as composition, theme, mark-making, layering, and so on. We will also have a look at everyone’s recent creations, with celebration of the triumphs and suggestions for moving forward with work-in-progress. Together we’ll explore techniques including drawing, painting, mixed-media, and collage, but you don’t have to work exclusively in these media to take part - all creative disciplines are welcome. Each participant will be encouraged to deepen their explorations in whatever direction interests them most - be it a series of drawings, written reflections, sketches, collages, photographs, mixed-media pieces, or a unique, personal combination of all these. There will be an optional Facebook group for participants to stay connected and share their creations with each other between sessions. There will also be discounts available for other workshops and one-to-one mentoring.

Hatha Yoga Join us for a revitalizing Hatha Yoga class run by our teacher Sukanya; a class that brings together the power of movement and breath. This session will focus on Surya Namaskar (Sun Salutation), a dynamic sequence of yoga asanas designed to energize and align the body, mind, and spirit. Whether you're a beginner or seasoned practitioner, you'll be guided through each pose with mindfulness, fostering flexibility, strength, and balance. Complementing the physical practice, we will incorporate Pranayama (breathing techniques) to deepen your breath awareness, enhance mental clarity, and promote relaxation. The combination of asanas and controlled breathing will leave you feeling grounded, rejuvenated, and more connected to your inner self. This class is perfect for those looking to cultivate physical vitality while exploring the meditative aspects of Hatha Yoga.
