Origami Workshop for Mindfulness

Learn basic folding skills and create origami!



1.5 hours Class size 12 to 60     label $55

It's time to put down your phones, stop swiping and scrolling, and start folding!

In this workshop, Michael will take you through origami's most famous designs - including the paper crane. But this workshop is not your average origami class! We'll be showing you how this ancient artistic practice can be used as an active meditation and a tool for mindfulness, something we all need a little more of in our hustle-bustle lives!

Through a steady practice of designing and folding, you'll be calmer and more focused and in a place of zen before you know it. But wait! we're not done - you'll also learn how to turn your works of art into beautiful paper crane earrings!

Materials are provided and you're sure to come away with some beautiful paper sculptures to decorate your living space with, and the skills to continue making so much more!

Please note: This class requires at least six students to run. In the unlikely event that we don't get this number of students, we'll cancel the class and fully refund you and inform you via email, so please watch your email a few days prior to the class.

Michael began Origami in 1985 after his sister returned from Japan and taught him 3 origami designs. He made 1000 Origami cranes that same year and shortly afterwards in 1986 met and married his dearest wife Etsuko who urged him to further pursue Origami as a profession.

Michael has taught Origami to both children and adults at many schools, fairs and community group workshops. Michael has appeared on television and radio, has been published in Vogue and Home Beautiful magazines. He has also made Origami for advertising, for commercial shops, for national sale catalogues, conventions and corporate functions.
