Calligraphy Workshop: Breathe Your Words
Re-connect with your body and soul through modern calligraphy and meditation
ClassBento donates with every booking to
3 hours

$135
What you'll do
Looking for relaxing things to do in Bowral? Learn the beautiful art of modern calligraphy with Vanessa Opazo of Bondi Letters. “Calligraphy” from Greek kalligraphia, means 'person who writes beautifully'. So in a nutshell, calligraphy is beautiful writing.
When your words come straight out from your soul, there’s a direct channel that connects your heart with the paper. In that present moment, there is no room for anything but yourself and the words you are breathing out, represented in every stroke that you trace with your pen and ink. Everything around you starts fading and a rendezvous with your inner-self begins.
In this workshop, you are welcomed to a calligraphy practice that will serve as a portal to connect with your intuition. A primer to get into your flow and to tap into your inner greatness
During this three-hour workshop, we will explore different techniques to connect with our body and soul through calligraphy practice, becoming aware of our breath and its rhythm so we can use it to listen to it more mindfully, bringing calm into our days whenever we need to.
We will learn the anatomy of all the lowercase letters of the alphabet, and how to connect them together to write our own beautiful words by the end of the class.
You are the author of your own story. Listen to your soul and start breathing your words out!
Optional:
- If you would like to add an Empowered Crystal as an add-on to your booking, I am offering it at a special rate just for you that are taking my class.
- I will be shortly in touch with you after you confirm your booking so you can get to choose your empowering word to be engraved on your crystal by hand. You can choose between Clear Quartz or Rose Quartz and a max of 12 characters.

- Personalised (your name in Gold foil) - Calligraphy practice pad + gold ink ($25)
