Freestyle Auckland… I’ve said it to a few people.. these events always leave me feeling inspired and energised to scrap, but none yet has left me so relaxed and confident about so many new things.
The weekend was full on with many laughs – some I still can’t blog about incase David (Kiwiscraps) reads this, lol.
I won’t go into it toooo much as the Wellington and Sydney versions are still to come. But I have to say that there was such a relaxed mood, despite the craziness of the classes that were overflowing with things to do and no time to do it. It was like a big kindergarten with paint, glitter, sequins, dye, paper, cardboard, spraypaints, fabric. Did I mention dye? ;o) lol. It was an event where everyone just let go and so much different stuff and I saw so many inspired people. I mean these things always inspire us, but it was different. It was a real relaxation of the rules and just a big play around with lots of stuff, noone had time to think , it was just all-out creating.
Am I allowed to tell you all my fav classes? Surely you ladies want a clue?
I saw most of them, I was tutoring as well as teacher-aiding so I saw them all. And the most fav? The one I will be begging to buy a place into? The Whole Enchilada by Tia Bennett. Seriously. Kicked myself all the way home for not booking into it in Akl and then emailed Kiwiscraps 50 million times since my return asking for a spot in Sydney. lol. Close behind is ‘Weaving my way to Constancy’ by Tia Bennett. Another one that I would love to sit in on because there are 50 kabillion techniques and the very relaxed and cruisy Emily Falconbridge at the helm, is Altered State.
And actually from here I could list the rest of the classes but those were my 3 favs. Feel a little guilty for saying so, because honestly, they are all awesome, but those are the ones I wouldn’t miss. Personally. For me.
For those of you sitting in on Wildflowers, here is a pic of someone in action in my class :o) nothing like a little FancyPants, BasicGrey and a little Queen & Co added in there…
laters.
