The feedback from Susan Margaret’s Memory in Your Hands and Colour and Reflection workshops is always full of praise – here are some from recent workshops:

This was the most enjoyable and enlightening course – Susan Margaret is a fantastic teacher and I would recommend it to anyone to do.

A joyful, revealing experience – a quiet transformative, simple process helping to bring clarity and freeing of an issue – providing a tool for life to use again and again.

I loved this course! It really helped me to connect to my feelings and watching others come up with amazing expressions of themselves was a rich and intimate experience, full of insights

This course helped me more through the doubt that I could create something from clay. Susan was encouraging, gentle and insightful and I had fun and a new experience.

A very relaxed, welcoming and creative experience; I enjoyed the foundation exercises and felt well prepared for the “head” creation. My resulting head was a revelation both in form and inspiration for fostering my creativity in the future.

I had a delightful and enlightening experience. Susan is encouraging and motivational.

Absolutely fantastic, therapeutic and relaxing as well as giving skills in clay sculpting. A respectful group coordinated beautifully by Susan Margaret. Thank you.

I would never have believed that I could a) create something as revealing and meaningful and b0 that the course could be so thought-provoking. A lovely to spend the day exploring and creating. I would highly recomment it.
