✨ Winter Glow Photo 101 Workshop ✨

I’m hosting a cozy, hands-on photography workshop designed for creatives, wellness pros, yoga teacher trainees, and anyone who wants to take more intentional, beautiful photos — even with a smartphone.

We’ll explore soft-light techniques, simple composition, and gentle posing so you can create images that feel authentic and elevated. We’ll also use Yoga Anatomy by Leslie Kaminoff to look at alignment through a yogic lens — a playful and surprisingly effective way to deepen learning. Yoga teacher trainees may earn training hours during this portion.

You’ll leave with 1–3 images you created yourself and a fresh spark of creative confidence for the new year.

A 2026 Vision Board Template is included as a Cyber Monday bonus.

Looking for a bedtime story to sooth the littles?

🌙 Art Meets Sobi
A Bedtime-Story Slow Version**
The day had almost ended, and the room was quiet — the kind of quiet that feels soft and warm, like a blanket around the heart. Michelle sat with her sketchbook open on her lap, breathing slowly, letting her mind drift the way clouds drift across a nighttime sky.
She drew a tiny spiral.�Just a simple little swirl.
�Round…�and round…�and round…
The spiral glowed faintly at first, the way stars do before your eyes adjust to the dark. Then, gently… almost shyly… the glow grew brighter, spreading a calm light across the page.

Michelle blinked.�She breathed in.�She breathed out.
And the spiral lifted.

It rose from the paper as if carried by a quiet breath.�Up…�up…�up…
Until it hovered in front of her, turning slowly, casting soft circles of light on the walls.
Then, from the very center of that peaceful glow, a tiny paw appeared.

Then another.
Then a little nose…�and round glasses…�and a bow tie just slightly crooked, as if it had been tied in a hurry.
A small dog stepped out of the spiral and onto the blanket beside her.

But he didn’t bark.�He didn’t startle.�He simply sat — calm, steady, glowing gently in the dim light.

Michelle whispered, “Hello.”
The little dog looked up at her, eyes warm and wise, and spoke in a voice that sounded like a soft breeze moving through leaves:
“I’m Art.”

He yawned once — a tiny, sleepy little yawn — and curled his paws beneath him.
“I come from the spiral,” he said, “the place where your ideas rest before they become real.”

Michelle felt her shoulders soften. Her breath slowed. Everything in the room felt peaceful.
“Are you here to stay?” she asked.
Art nodded, eyes half-closed, tail giving one slow, sleepy wag.
“Always,” he murmured.�“Where your creativity sleeps, I sleep.�Where your inspiration wakes, I wake.”
He leaned gently against her side, warm as a small sun.

And from that night forward, Art stayed close —�through quiet evenings and gentle mornings,�through deep breaths and soft ideas,�through the moments when the world felt big�and the moments when it felt so very close.

When Sobi Art School was born, Art curled up near its doorway — a glowing little guardian who greeted every new traveler on the Crown Pathway with a slow, steady wag and a whisper only the heart could hear:
“Rest here.�You are safe.�Your imagination knows the way.”

And under the violet glow of the Crown,�in the hush between breaths,�Art and Sobi continue to walk the creative path together —�softly, gently, one peaceful step at a time.
