Creative Coaching
-
Slow looking, hands-on making, and creative research in small groups of 6 to 12. Each workshop starts with a close observation of a place, a material, or a memory, then turns what you noticed into something you make. You’ll leave with finished work and a sharper way of seeing. Lunch-time and evening sessions, half-days, full-day retreats, and weekend residencies are all available.
-
Discover a gentle, hands-on creative workshop where slow-looking, playful making, and storytelling meet—perfect for curious beginners, busy creatives craving a reset, small groups of friends, or teams seeking a mindful team-building experience; each session blends short guided observation exercises, a brief materials demo, and open studio time so you can explore techniques at your own pace, then reflect on the story behind what you made as a way to deepen connection with your work and with others.

What’s the difference between the options?
You can book a seat at a communal table, where you join a small group of 6 to 12 people in a shared room. You can book a group workshop for up to 40 people, which suits teams, professional development days, and celebrations. Or you can book a one-to-one session for personal guidance. All three can be booked as an evening (2 hours), a half-day, a full-day, or a weekend residency, depending on the option.How much does it cost?
Communal table seats are €40 for an evening session, €90 for a half-day, €160 for a full-day, and €300 for a weekend residency. Group workshops for up to 40 people are a flat rate, starting from €1,300 for an evening session. One-to-one sessions are €80 for 60 minutes and €120 for 90 minutes. Materials are included in every option. Gift vouchers are available for all three.Can you run a workshop for my team, group, or event?
Yes. Group workshops for up to 40 people suit corporate team-building, professional development days, hen dos, and private parties. Send me your group size, preferred dates, and location, and I’ll send you a tailored quote. Sessions outside Toulouse include a travel fee.How does it work?
You book online and receive a short confirmation with what to bring and where to meet. For communal tables and group workshops, each table has its own guided group, so everyone gets personal attention. For one-to-one sessions, we agree on a focus when you book, then work through it together.What should I expect?
You don’t need any experience. Expect to look closely, try things, and make mistakes. Nothing is graded, and there’s no single right result. Most people are surprised by how absorbed they become.What do I need to bring?
Nothing. All materials are provided. Wear clothes you don’t mind getting marks on, and bring a water bottle for longer sessions.Can I do it in English?
Yes. Workshops run in French or English, and multilingual sessions are available on request.What if I’ve never made art before?
That’s the most common starting point. The exercises are designed for beginners and for people who say “I can’t draw.”What’s your cancellation policy?
Full refund up to 7 days before the session. 50% refund up to 48 hours before. No refund after that.
We already talk about sleep, food, movement, and connection as pillars of health… and now research is pointing to a new one: art.
Playful, simple creative practice gives the brain a different kind of workout—attention to the present moment, noticing without judging, and the tiny delight of a small result. Nothing has to look “good.” The point is what happens to you while you do it.
I have over a decade of experience guiding creativity in classrooms and university settings. My methods focus on the psychology of the practice itself, gently meeting you where you are.
Think of it as curious, hands-on artful investigating rather than a “sip-and-paint” party or a paint-by-numbers class. We take our time, look closely, play with materials, and follow surprises—slow looking, gentle experiments, and creative discovery are the point.
