Art + Yoga Creativity Retreat: Pottery + Botanicals | Nectar Yoga Retreat

This restorative art and yoga retreat is inspired by Cancer’s qualities of home, memory, and nourishment, weaving together slow movement, breathwork, and clay-based creation.

After a gentle, heart-centered yoga practice, you’ll be guided into hand-forming Japanese-style tea cups—minimal, handle-less, and deeply personal. Using botanical impressions gathered from Nectar’s land, each piece becomes a vessel for memory, belonging, and ritual.

Co-led by Sara Skuce of The Burrow on Bowen Island, the workshop also includes the making of a botanical-stamped clay pendant. All pieces will be professionally fired and glazed in traditional cobalt tones at her Bowen studio, then ready for pickup or shipment four weeks later; shipping is available for an additional fee.

WHAT TO BRING

• Clothing you don’t mind getting clay on
