WORKSHOP
Kintsugi: Embrace Resilience
In our Japanese Kintsugi Class, specially crafted for business teams and employees, we invite you to explore the profound philosophy behind this ancient art form. Beyond the act of mending broken pottery with gold, kintsugi is a metaphor for resilience, transformation, and embracing imperfection. By learning and practicing kintsugi, your team will engage in a powerful journey of acceptance and surrender, turning the mending of fragmented ceramics into a symbol of personal and collective healing. As you bring together the already broken pieces, you’ll experience firsthand the extraordinary power of embracing imperfections and turning them into strengths, fostering a culture of adaptability, resilience, and growth within your team and your organisation. Join us for an unforgettable and transformative experience that promises to leave an indelible mark on your approach to teamwork and business success.
Please, provide us with more information about your team and we will send you a price estimate and additional details for this event.
