Request your preferred time

We'll send a ClassBento Box to you (a craft kit with what you'll need). Shipping is free, and it should arrive within 2 to 4 business days for Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Canberra; 4 to 9 days elsewhere. We ship nationwide.

What you'll do

Continue to enjoy the tranquillity of Zentangle as we create our own enchanted garden. Learn some beautiful new organic tangles that will grow together to form a peaceful botanical scene.

The Zentangle Method is an easy-to-learn fun and relaxing way to create beautiful images by drawing structured, repeated patterns. It increases focus and creativity and provides artistic satisfaction along with an increased sense of personal wellbeing.

Some benefits and uses include relaxation, simple and quick access to mindfulness, and it has been shown to help with insomnia, chronic pain, anxiety, self-esteem, panic attacks and improves fine motor skills. Zentangle is also a fantastic stress reliever which makes it a unique option for virtual team building activities.

There are no mistakes in Zentangle so you should finish up feeling relaxed and refreshed!

I am a Certified Zentangle Teacher (CZT). I have been tangling for about 8 years and teaching for over 5 years. Zentangle is an easy-to-learn, fun and relaxing way to create beautiful images by drawing repeated structured patterns. No artistic ability is required. If you can hold a pen and write your name you are half way there. There are no mistakes in Zentangle, so you can’t get it wrong. Zentangle increases focus and creativity as well as providing simple and quick access to mindfulness. I love sharing my passion for Zentangle. I love both for the beauty of the artwork itself and the added benefits of relaxation, reducing anxiety, helping with insomnia, helping manage chronic pain, ...... the list goes on!

Lovely class! We did two beautiful botanical tiles, both really relaxing to do and had beautiful outcomes. Always love learning all the new tangles to add to my bank as well as creating gorgeous Zentangle art. I love drawing Zentangle as a way to try and go against my perfectionism and just go with the flow and not worry about mistakes.

Another great class! Niki took us through step by step to create two botanical scenes.
I will use the techniques I learned in this class to add more botanical themed drawing to my Zentangle and other creative projects.

I absolutely loved this class! I’ve started doing lots of Zentangle (classes with Niki and on my own) and I loved how this class took a different approach to the ‘traditional’ style by creating beautiful garden inspired themes. I highly recommend this, and any other classes with Niki, for relaxation, expressing your creativity or to learn something new!

This was my first foray into Zentangle and it was absolutely delightful. Niki was clear and concise in her descriptions of each element of the drawings and the whole exercise was fun and deeply relaxing. I’m hooked!

Sharon O’Rourke • Oct 2021

I have learnt a lot today. I have never done zentangles previously and Niki explained and demonstrated very well.
Thank you.

Angela Rostirolla • Oct 2021

Loved this class. Learned so much and the instruction was really clean and easy to follow.

Bronwyn O'Beirne • Oct 2021

Another great Zentangle class with Niki - I loved learning some new techniques and putting together a couple of tiles. I did this class with 2 of my friends who live in different states (along with several other people I didn't know) - it was a great activity for us to do 'together' in lockdown!

Our teacher Niki was friendly and explained everything well.

Odd to do a class for two hours that was mostly silent!

I felt happy with my results and keen to keep practising.
