Pottery & yoga evening

Pottery & yoga evening is on at Innsworth on Friday 13 November, from 18:30 to 21:30. It's a double-bill of a night: you start by handbuilding a clay tea-light holder, and then you move into a guided yoga session. The two halves are meant to work together, feeding your creativity and then helping you unwind.

The pottery comes first. You'll handbuild your tea-light holder from scratch, and it doesn't get fired and finished on the night — it's fired later and ready to take home a few weeks on. The yoga follows, a guided session to stretch out and settle down, and the whole evening is rounded off with warm drinks and cakes.

Two people lead the night, Nicky and Ruth, who've run these workshops many times before. Nicky is a psychotherapist and potter who believes creativity can support healing and ease stress; Ruth is a McTimoney chiropractor, yoga teacher and yoga therapy practitioner. Together they pitch the session as a gentle introduction to both practices, so you don't need to have ever touched clay or stepped onto a yoga mat to fit in.

It's a single ticket for the full evening — the pottery, the yoga, and the drinks and cakes included — at £45 per adult. The venue is Unit C3, Innsworth, Gloucester, Gloucestershire, GL3 1DL, and it runs from 18:30 to 21:30 on Friday 13 November.
