Sunshine Coast weaving circle – October

Learn to weave – in a ceremony-style basket weaving circle where each member of the group is honoured for their own special contribution to the group in a gentle, nurturing manner. It is an open-hearted, fun and growthful experience for the beginner and experienced weaver alike, a creative space full of shared wisdom and joy.

Use plants that grow in your garden, learn the characteristics of the fibre so as to identify and play with other fibres that suit the technique, as you walk your path onwards.

Particular technique TBA – special requests considered till further notice

Sit in circle with weaver and artist Rene Bahloo and engage in deep contemplative, creative practice with natural fibres. You will be guided to weave a basketling which in turn will become a reflection of the weave of your self, your experience and your path of learning. Weaving is a practice which engages mind, body as well as spirit, and invites the wisdom of the weave to speak through your hands and hearts, in a safe and nurturing circle space.

Sunshine Coast Weavery basketmaking workshop and sharing circle – Feb 2019

Weave a dilly bag or sculptural piece with local fibres. You will take home so much more than what you expected – connection, calm, groundedness and new friends! Experience the healing, nurturing and centering forces that emerge as you weave with awareness, intention and mindfulness. Rene will facilitate a journey through the creative energy of the universe using plants that are all around you – you will never look at your natural environment in the same way again! Beginners welcome. Please bring a lunch dish to share with the group, for extra culinary connection.
