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. A 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
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.
Usui Reiki Energy Healing appointments available in 30, 45, and 60 minute sessions.
Book your appointment below!
You are cordially invited to our not so secret, secret society. Where each month Sinead casts a circle and together we hold space for each other. We nourish our souls in the Moon’s medicine for reflection and release. Every month a new journey.
We aren’t your average moon circle.
We are the misfits, the renegades, the left out not so lost causes, the feral, the wild.
We are the Hedgewitch Society.
We welcome you. All of you.
Exclusively Inclusive.
This month:
The last indoor circle unless inclement weather for a few months!
The full moon in Scorpio. Sun in Taurus.
Come let go and bloom.

Join us for a soothing and transformative experience in our Monthly Reiki and Energy Healing Circle, guided by Reiki Master Teachers, Sinead and Sharon. This sacred space offers an opportunity to relax, restore, and connect with your inner peace, as Sinead and Sharon share their wisdom and healing energy to support your journey.
Whether you're new to Reiki or a seasoned practitioner, this circle is open to all. Together, we will explore the healing potential of energy work, offering space for deep relaxation, stress relief, and energetic alignment. Through these guided sessions, you’ll receive a gentle yet powerful healing experience, helping you to release tension and find balance on all levels – physical, emotional, and spiritual.
Join us the last Sunday of the month at 10am.
Step in to the Black Dove Studio's creative sanctum for a two part collaboration of creative writing, and musical composition.
Structure of the event:
First hour idea/poetry/lyrics exploration, starting with the cut-up technique and maybe deploying some other creative techniques.
Participants can either write on their own or do it as a team.
The second hour will be 'tuning' or 'noise making'.
No set songs or song structure, just loose jamming.
The jam will either inspire new lyrics or can be matched with some of the words we generated in the first part.
** At the end the group can do open mic, but not until we have gone through all the new ideas first.*** It is recommended that participants tape or record all their efforts and go back and listen to them later.
You don't have to play an instrument, bring one if you do.
Bring your voice, your open mind, and your creativity.
Let's make some music and magic!
Writing materials can be provided if needed.
Donation Based/Energy Exchange. ($10- $15 recommended.)
Cash or Venmo at the door.
Join us for our monthly women's social and connecting hour!
