Mandala drawing - beginners

My partner and I have just finished the beginner class with Kathryn. So insightful, so meditative, so slow.. completely immersed, a real pleasure!
Kathryn distills her advice while letting us get into the depths of the mandala world.
Again, a real pleasure and willingness to continue!
Thanks Kathryn!

I booked the course for my daughters birthday and she really enjoyed it. Kathryn was very patient and understanding and the course was so enjoyable. It gave Niamh a wonderful insight into the history and design of this ancient craft, a delightful morning, many thanks!

Great workshop, Kathryn is a great teacher, giving us plenty of time to complete each section. She makes the sessions relaxing and fun. Shame there was only two of us, but so nice to have time to meet another lovely lady and her beautiful cat.

Very good first lesson, well explained. new experience.

Loved it. Did this for my wife’s 30th and it was such good fun, very relaxing and generally a great way to spend a morning. Kathryn was wonderful!

Kathryn was wonderful, it was my first attempt at drawing a mandala and she helped me though it, explained all about the history and methods of it. I really enjoyed drawing the video was so simple and easy to follow and I managed to draw the pattern on my own, was very proud of myself. Thank you Kathryn, you made it so easy from zoom. Looking forward to do more.

My first online workshop during lockdown. I have been looking for something to re-kindle my creativity and finally found it. Mandala drawing suits my style of intricate drawing and I am now hooked. A great workshop run by Kathryn who was very patient and explained the process very well. I am now using the follow up notes to create a Mandala, hopefully worthy of putting on display. Thanks Kathryn.

This class was simple and fun - I really enjoyed it. I feel able to take what I have learned and continue with my own pieces. And the website has given me some great ideas.
Kathryn was extremely accommodating in terms of when I had the class. I ended up in a class on my own as I couldn't manage the times she normally does but it was not a problem for her.

So enjoyed this. Kathryn gave a brief background to the use of mandalas around the world. Her instructions were clear and I have learned the basics of producing a mandala, also with an idea of the further complexities which are possible and will be fun to explore. Anyone who likes drawing and patterns will enjoy this beginner course and will be intrigued to learn more.

Host friendly and approachable, can't believe I managed to produce a Mandala! Thank you

Loved the course, so nice just having a few people, it felt more 'homely' more intimate.
The level was pitched just right, and Kathryn gave us plenty of time to catch up.
Can't wait to do the next level.
Thank you Kathryn

Very happy morning learning more about how to draw and colour a mandala.

Fantastic workshop. Interesting and inspiring. Kathryn is an excellent tutor.

It was so relaxing. Kathryn was very patient and such fun. I was so pleased with what I had learned. I think I'm addicted to Mandalas now! Highly recommend this course

Really enjoyable morning and amazed at how can be achieved. Feel very inspired .... Many Thanks

really clear explanation and time given to get it right. great way of switching off and learning new skill. Thoroughly enjoyed the session.

I had such a great time with Kathryn. Kathryn is a very nice person and immediately makes one feel at ease. The information she shares is fascinating and drawing a Mandala with her is very relaxing. Kathryn also supplies you with written examples so you can continue later at your free time. Simply excellent!

I so much enjoyed the Mandala drawing course with Kathryn.
She explained things very well and I was lucky enough to have a one to one session which was relaxing. To understand the history of Mandala, which began with Buddhist monks, and the spread to other cultures was fascinating.
I look forward to pursuing the art.

Very well thought through workshop. I had a lovely morning with Kathryn, who has the gift of being able to inform and be knowledgeable on an interesting topic and also be good fun. I would recommend this to everyone. Very good for my lockdown well being. Thank you and long may my compass rule!

What a lovely way to pass the time - learning this ancient art form and its wellbeing properties.

Kathryn was a very enthusiastic teacher and encouraged us which made it fun and the group were just lovely.

I’m hooked now - and looking forward to more of Kathryn’s courses.

I really enjoyed this session. Everything was clearly explained and I had great fun! I can’t wait to be creative with mandalas - can’t recommend this enough!

Fabulous. Clear instructions, gentle pace freindly atmosphere. Would reċommend this to anyone who has wondered how to draw a mandala.

First time for me doing a zoom event . Absolutely brilliant, great patiences from Kathryn . After the class I sat down for several hours to draw another mandala . That is something I never do , but I was so keen to try , I did . Thank you Kathryn .

Brilliant time, really enjoyed the session. Simply taught, a broken down mandala and then shown how to build up to a spectacular picture. Lovely comfortable atmosphere, would recommend trying a session. Very relaxing.

I thoroughly enjoyed Mandala Meadow's online mandala drawing class. I had no previous experience but Kathryn gently guided us through each step, putting us at ease and giving us the context and background to the practice. It struck just the right balance between intense concentration and relaxation- it was a lovely way to chat to others and I would highly recommend it.

I highly recommend Kathryn's mandala class! I spent a very enjoyable Sunday afternoon learning how to create a mandala and ended up with a beautiful design at the end of class.

Really enjoyed this course. Kathryn was an excellent teacher and the mandala drawing was really absorbing

I really enjoyed this course. It can be difficult to learn creative things over Zoom, but Kathryn had thought it through and explained it very clearly, with slides showing step by step how to design a mandala. It was really inspiring and made me want to explore the subject further. The timing was good and Kathryn's friendly and easy-going approach was brilliant.

I absolutely loved this course. The time flew by! Kathyrn was a fantastic and thorough teacher. I hope to join the follow on class soon to learn how to colour my mandalas. Great that you can do it from the comfort of your own home too. I highly recommend this course.

Kathryn was lovely so welcoming. Instructions were clear and we worked at our own pace. I would highly recommend this course to anyone. I now have a lovely example of mandala. Will be taking the next level.

A thoroughly enjoyable online lesson with Kathryn (during the gloom of lockdown). The step by step instruction was clear and there was no pressure to finish the mandala in a hurry. My first attempt at this skill was not bad at all and it was a joy. I will enjoy finishing the mandala and adding colour tomorrow but I learnt a great deal in 90 minutes. Highly recommended.

I really enjoyed learning how to draw a mandala with Kathryn. She really put me at ease with no pressure to rush my drawing. It was very relaxing and rewarding to see how much I could achieve in 90 minutes.
I also enjoyed learning about the history of mandala and the use of them in psychology. Thoroughly enjoyed and recommend this course! Brilliant ... thank you so much Kathryn for sharing your expert knowledge.

I found this course on the last minute and booked immediately - Kathryn got straight back to me to confirm a time and communication with her was excellent . The class was so relaxing , the techniques were really well demonstrated and explained and I amazed myself at being able to produce a Mandala at the end . Thank you Kathryn for a lovely tutorial

fabulous course, Kathryn paces it well, explains it well and quickly put me at ease. I'm not artistic but I was really pleased with the item I made on this course - definitely given me confidence to try more and what a lovely way to spend 90 mins the time flew past.

This was my first attempt at drawing a mandala and with Kathryn's patience, skills and excellent resources I managed to produce something I was very proud of! This really is one of the nicest courses I've ever done and being on Zoom wasn't an issue at all. If you've looked at mandalas and thought "I wish I could do that" then sign up for a lesson with Kathryn and let her show you how it's done...

I did the class with my daughters aged 14 and 12 and we all loved it. It was peaceful and relaxing and Kathryn was a great teacher with plenty of patience! It really felt as though we were all in the same room despite the screen. We all ended up up creating mandalas that we were delighted with and had a really enjoyable afternoon.

Kathryn was wonderful. I felt at ease and wasn't rushed to complete my mandala drawing. Kathryn explained the history and methods behind the drawings. At the end of the lesson I was so pleased with what I had achieved and the knowledge learnt. Advice on design, development, different textures were all helpful. I would definitely recommend this course.
