Finding Flow: Pottery Wheel for Teens
Finding Flow: Pottery Wheel for Teens
Express your creativity and immerse yourself in the world of ceramics with our Finding Flow class! Designed specifically for beginners ages 12 to 17, this course is a fun and captivating way to develop your skills at the pottery wheel and set the stage for flow.
In this dynamic class, your teen will embark on a comprehensive exploration of the pottery process, from the fundamental techniques of throwing to the intricate steps of trimming, decorating, and glazing, their own unique creations for the kiln. Led by experienced teen instructor, Brittney Baldwin, your teen will receive personalized guidance every step of the way, ensuring that they develop a strong foundation in ceramics.
But Finding Flow is more than just a pottery class; it's an opportunity to tap into the transformative power of flow theory. Coined by psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, flow theory explores the state of optimal experience where individuals are fully immersed in an activity, feeling energized, focused, and deeply fulfilled. By incorporating flow theory principles into our curriculum, we aim to cultivate an environment where your teen can effortlessly tap into their creative flow, experiencing moments of pure joy and artistic breakthroughs.
Moreover, we recognize the profound connection between mindfulness practice and the induction of flow states. Through guided mindfulness exercises and meditation techniques, your teen will learn how to quiet the mind, heighten their awareness, and foster a deep sense of presence - essential ingredients for accessing your creative flow on the pottery wheel.
Register your teen for Finding Flow today! They'll discover the joy of shaping clay at the wheel and unleashing their artistic potential in a supportive and vibrant community of fellow teen artists.
