Team Building & Mindfulness

Offering a WOODCRAFT day or SPOON CARVING day is a great way to destress your employees and the perfect team-building exercise too. The event can be structured over several days with different groups of up to 6 people for the woodcraft and up to 8 people for the spoon carving enjoying the experience on each day. Everyone gets the opportunity to learn the techniques and how to use the equipment for woodcraft - each person will have created something by the end of the day and, ultimately, had a destressing, calm and creative experience.

With our WOODCRAFT sessions, your employee will learn how to take a log of green wood and trim it with an axe using safe techniques. They will then pare it to a smoother cylinder by means of a shave horse and a draw knife in readiness for “turning” on the pole lathe … depending on time constraints and skill level, the employee will end up turning their piece into an item of choice (mushroom, garden dibber, rolling pin ...).Our SPOON CARVING sessions are a relaxed affair, with participants sitting on a shave horse to clamp the wood. They then use a spoke shave & a knife to carve their spoons & spatulas.

The focus of a team-building & mindfulness group workshop is to understand the processes involved and to enjoy what they are doing in a RELAXED and "MINDFUL" manner.

If you bring your team to us here in the Blended Monkey studios, we will provide refreshments throughout the day and also lunch (which can be taken outside in the Blended Monkey gardens or inside in our large kitchen dining space). ​
