Art, writing, and mindfulness workshops for all ages and skill levels.
At The Black Dove Studio, we are passionate about bringing creativity and mindfulness to the community. Our classes and workshops are designed to provide a supportive and inclusive environment for students of all backgrounds and skill levels. Mindfulness is a practice, take the time for yourself. We offer workshops and classes on meditation, movement, writing and art.
Hi, I’m Sharon, owner and instructor here at the studio. Local writer, artist, Usui Reiki master, and mystic mama. I created this space not only as my own creative playground, but to share with others the joy of creating when you lose the fear of doing it wrong.
My true passion is writing, but helping people find their voice, their passions, their sense of self, and quality of life through art, journaling and mindfulness practices, is a gift. It took me a long time to find my voice, to not be afraid to share who I was, and I am happy to provide a space for others to pursue their dreams by offering my time, my space and a no judgement zone community. My playground is yours.
Be mindful and take care of yourself!
Love,
Mama S
We offer creative, journaling, and mindfulness classes for teens, and adults, in group settings, or one on one guidance. The programs are designed to be accessible and affordable, so that everyone can have the opportunity to explore their creativity.
Our Creative Art Workshops focus on self expression, where there is no right or wrong. You are encouraged to paint what you feel, rather than what you see. Paint ugly, paint happy, paint silly, paint sad!
Our Journal workshops go beyond the to do list and daily grind. With weekly workshops giving you something new to digest. You don’t have to share what you are going through, you just have to write your way through it.
Weekly yoga, meditation and sound healing to ease stress, tension, and anxiety.

What is journaling? Where do I start? How often should I do it? Is it like a diary? I'm worried someone will read it!
Journaling is not one size fits all, let's make it work for you!
This workshop takes the guesswork out of journaling. We answer questions like these, and find the best way to add journaling to your routine!
