Corporate pottery workshops in London to destress and decompress
If you’re looking for something to help your team slow down and take a well-earned breather, the Recess Living corporate pottery workshops in London are a perfect addition to your office calendar.
These corporate pottery workshops give your team members time to just be, whilst the act of creativity works its magic and unravels any built up tension. Using air dry clay and a number of fun tools and techniques, these uplifting, tactile workshops are designed to help your team disconnect from the pressures of work, whilst strengthening their connection with their teammates.
Mindfulness through making has been proven to have similar effects on reducing stress and anxiety as meditation.
When you book a Recess Living corporate pottery workshop in London, you’re locking in all of this for you and your team:
Moments for connection to self and to others (perfect for team building/community building)
Active rest to help manage and prevent burnout, and reduce stress levels
Creation of moments of joy
Dedicated time for mindfulness
A chance for escapism, exploration, and self-expression
Which, in turn, not only benefits your team individually but improves your bottom line (with Forbes estimating a strong company culture can drive revenue up by 682%. No, that’s not a typo!).
These corporate pottery workshops come directly to you and your team in your office or co-working space so that you don’t have to lift a finger. We work with air-dry clay, which means no kilns or pottery wheels are needed to enjoy this beautiful craft, making it suitable for all spaces (it also makes it possible to do virtually, too.) Plus, your team can take their makes straight home to enjoy after the workshop finishes. You don’t have to be arty, either: from first-time beginners to Great Pottery Throwdown hopefuls, everyone is welcome.
Packages start from £1000
Workshop packages are available for groups of 15 - 55. In-person and hybrid workshop options are available with craft kits delivered delivery to your remote guests at home.
Sessions typically last 2 hours – though they can be tailored to suit your schedule.
