Embracing Your Aliveness is a mini retreat designed to interrupt that pattern — a guided pause where you can drop out of your head\, settle into your body\, and remember what it feels like to actually be present in your own life. \nSet against the natural beauty of Burritt on the Mountain\, this experience blends nervous system regulation and somatic practices with life coach Maria Brito.  Maria’s coaching style has been called raw\, real and transformational.  No agenda to perform\, nothing to fix\, just permission to slow down and come home to yourself. \nWho This Is For \nThis workshop is for anyone who feels like they’re constantly “on”.  The woman who takes care of everyone else and rarely stops to ask what she needs\, the professional running on adrenaline and calling it productivity\, the person who senses they’re disconnected from their own body but isn’t sure how to find their way back. \nYou don’t need any experience at all!  This will be like dipping your toes into what it would feel like to go on any of Maria’s worldwide retreats. All you need is the willingness to show up and be still for a couple of hours\, bring an open mind and heart and get ready to learn some powerful life-hacking tools. If you’re craving rest that goes deeper than a nap\, and connection that goes deeper than small talk\, this is for you. \nAbout Maria \nLife Coach Maria Brito is back again to share her amazing mini retreat experience — one that’s been called life-changing by the women who’ve been through it. This gathering has sold out every single time\, and spots go quickly\, so you won’t want to miss it.  You can learn more about Maria by visiting her website www.Awakenwithmaria.com.

Your instructor will guide you through the essential steps of creating a wheel-thrown vessel. Each student will create one or two pieces to be fired and glazed. Students will return on Sunday\, October 25th to glaze their fired pieces. They will be fired one more time and ready for pick-up the following week. (If you are not able to return to glaze your pieces\, your instructor can apply the glaze of your choice.) \nPlease keep in mind that throwing on the pottery wheel is a skill that can take many years to master. This is an opportunity to get your hands dirty and see what wheel throwing is all about. This is a great class for someone who has never tried a wheel or for students who have taken our “Test Drive” class and want to progress even more. Participants will have the option to keep one to two of your creations to be fired and glazed. \n*There are many variables during the drying and firing process and pieces can crack or even explode. While we make every effort to ensure your work will be a success\, these variables make it impossible to guarantee your work will survive but this is the life of a potter. \n  \nInstructor: Paul Wieland has been making wheel-thrown pottery for over 15 years and has taught at multiple pottery studios throughout the region. He studied ceramics under Tom Marsh at the University of Louisville and was a co-founder of the Tennessee Valley Ceramic Arts Guild (TVCAG). He has demonstrated pottery-making at the Burritt Museum Folklife Festival for several years. He has also exhibited his work at Lowe Mill in Huntsville and in Atlanta\, GA. You may see examples of Paul’s work on his website\, Nascent Pottery. \n Supplies and Attire: All materials and supplies will be provided. Students should wear close-toed shoes. \nTime: Saturday\, October 17th (1:00-3:00) and Sunday\, October 25th (1:00-3:00) \nTuition: $75.00 \nSupply Fee: $20.00 \nLevel: Beginner/Adv. Beginner \n~~~~~~ \nImportant Information: Registering for a workshop indicates that the student is 19 years of age or older and understands that photographs/video may be taken during the event and their image may be used on Burritt on the Mountain’s website and social media outlets or other promotional materials. Registration also indicates that the student releases Burritt on the Mountain and the City of Huntsville\, all their directors\, employees\, volunteers\, and any persons associated with Burritt on the Mountain\, from any liability for any bodily injury and/or property damage suffered by the attendee as a result of activities during the educational program. \nCancelation Policy:  Our workshops take a great deal of advanced planning and purchasing of supplies. 25% of all ticket purchases are a non-refundable deposit. Students that cancel 30 days or more prior to the date of the class will be eligible for a refund\, minus the non-refundable deposit. If a cancellation is requested 14 to 29 days from a class date\, a refund of half the total price can be issued. No refunds will be issued less than 14 days from the start date of a class.*  To be fair and consistent\, there can be no exceptions to this policy\, regardless the reason a cancelation is requested. \nThank you for understanding that this policy is in place to protect our artist instructors who spend time\, energy\, and money to create an amazing learning experience.  \n*We require a minimum number of students to hold a class. If this minimum is not met\, the class may be canceled or rescheduled.  In this case\, a full refund will be offered.

Your instructor will guide you through the essential steps of creating a wheel-thrown vessel. Each student will create one or two pieces to be fired and glazed. Students will return on Sunday\, November 22 to glaze their fired pieces. They will be fired one more time and ready for pick-up the following week. (If you are not able to return to glaze your pieces\, your instructor can apply the glaze of your choice.) \nPlease keep in mind that throwing on the pottery wheel is a skill that can take many years to master. This is an opportunity to get your hands dirty and see what wheel throwing is all about. This is a great class for someone who has never tried a wheel or for students who have taken our “Test Drive” class and want to progress even more. Participants will have the option to keep one to two of your creations to be fired and glazed. \n*There are many variables during the drying and firing process and pieces can crack or even explode. While we make every effort to ensure your work will be a success\, these variables make it impossible to guarantee your work will survive but this is the life of a potter. \n  \nInstructor: Paul Wieland has been making wheel-thrown pottery for over 15 years and has taught at multiple pottery studios throughout the region. He studied ceramics under Tom Marsh at the University of Louisville and was a co-founder of the Tennessee Valley Ceramic Arts Guild (TVCAG). He has demonstrated pottery-making at the Burritt Museum Folklife Festival for several years. He has also exhibited his work at Lowe Mill in Huntsville and in Atlanta\, GA. You may see examples of Paul’s work on his website\, Nascent Pottery. \n Supplies and Attire: All materials and supplies will be provided. Students should wear close-toed shoes. \nTime: Saturday November 14th (1:00-3:00) and Sunday\, November 22nd (1:00-3:00) \nTuition: $75.00 \nSupply Fee: $20.00 \nLevel: Beginner/Adv.
