Craft and Nature Observation

Trash filesA course that centers around the breathing in of detailed handwork, for example beading and sewing bean bags, and the breathing out of walking and observing the nature that Triform offers using the four elements as a foundation.  In a two hour period, the student has one hour of handwork and one hour of nature walking, each carried by a long term Triform co-worker.  The class begins and ends with a seasonal song.  Students learn the skills of the craft at hand, how to be patient with themselves and others, strive to bring a peaceful presence to the class, how to observe the changes in nature over time.
