T LOVERS & SKANDIHUS WORKSHOP | SATURDAY 22ND FEBRUARY 2025 | 4.30-8.00PM | E17 STUDIO

We invite you to join us in our tranquil Walthamstow studio, along with Lera Zujeva (with T-Lovers), for a grounding and powerful workshop, to gently bring us into 2025.

Skandihus founder Stine Dulong, will begin the afternoon with a pottery workshop, using the magical powers of clay to help us to connect with our inner creative child and spirit. Indulging our sense of touch in a playful meditative exploration, she will teach the oldest pottery technique we know of, called “pinching”, to make your own tea bowl. The focus will be on the ability of clay to reconnect our heart, hands and mind - bringing our whole being back in balance, facilitating better grounding and presence in our bodies and life.

Lera will then lead a tea ceremony, inviting us to slow down and connect to presence. Deep presence that can be an incredible source of power, vitality, inspiration and love. Tea ceremony is an invitation to slow down and go within during these colder months - a time to press pause in order to recharge, ready for what lies ahead.

Tea as a sacred plant medicine creates this space for us to drop into the heart and just be".

ABOUT STINE DULONG

Stine Dulong is the founder of SkandiHus pottery studios. She quit her corporate lawyer job in 2013 to become a full time potter. For her, clay was a gateway into transformation. Not only did it become her career, and change the structure of her life on the surface, but it fundamentally shifted who she is and how she perceives the world. Through pottery, she found a way into a slower, more mindful and joyous way of existing. It’s now her greatest privilege to see the profound positive effects working with clay has on her students.

REFUND POLICY

Please note that we are not able to offer refunds for our event bookings, so be sure to double check your dates before booking. Spots can be passed on to a friend or family member. Please note that this refund policy is also applicable to anyone who has tested positive for COVID-19.

Our refund policy is strict because it enables us to pay our staff a fair wage, and remain accessible as a studio. Each weekend we get 8-10 requests and if we were to accommodate each one, we would be forced to lower our staff wages or increase our prices - both of which we really want to avoid. We hope you understand that this is why there are no exemptions to our refund policies.
