I really enjoyed the Mindful Sip and Paint Workshop by Sabina Silver. I would definitely book this class again, and I'd highly recommend it to other people who are looking for chilled out activities and creative ways to unwind. There were so many great things about the class such as the relaxing music, the chamomile tea, hearing other people's stories and painting a picture that was personally meaningful.

My very first sip and paint event and I had a ball. It was everything I thought it was gonna be. Sabina is such a beautiful lady inside and outside. She created a save space for people to talk and open up. 100% would recommend! :)

Byron Sargeant • Apr 2024

Wasn't expecting it to be exactly what my partner and I needed. There was no occasion, we just wanted to try something different together and it was a great experience. Sabina was great, the venue was perfect, everything we needed was provided. I feel the class was good value for money. I liked mostly the way Sabina encouraged a community type feel to the session. Although strangers to each other it became a safe space to express. We will likely attend again.

Teacher's response

Thank you for the wonderful review Byron. I'm thrilled you enjoyed the workshop and felt it was a great experience. Creating a sense of community is important to me, and I'm glad you felt comfortable expressing yourselves. We'd love to see you again soon!

Sabina was very patient and friendly. The first painting exercise was very helpful in preparing for the actual painting.

Cherry • Feb 2024

I've been to this class before and wanted to bring my friend as a wholesome girls night out. Absolutely love the atmosphere where everyone is supportive and felt safe to share our ideas and creations. The venue was easy to access, tea, paint, brushes and canvas is provided & class was great value for money. I definitely would recommend to anyone hoping to have a reflective, cute and relaxing night out.

Logeash Sivanandam • Feb 2024

Ana amazing sessions with Sabina. She was really open to all and made us feel comfortable. We started the class with introductions and went on to a warm up painting exercise before we did some mindfulness to inspire our main pieces.
She was really helpful if anyone needed any help or guidance and was so encouraging. Would 100% go again and recommend this to any and everyone :)

Linette-Malka • Feb 2024

Sabina was lovely and so easy to talk to. She made everyone feel comfortable and welcoming the entire time which was great because I can be quite shy around new people. The class was amazing value for money considering what you get and experience when you're there. She taught us a quick art exercise in the beginning which was so much fun, and I loved how Sabina encouraged relaxation and not to overthink too much when painting. We ended up with some really nice pieces at the end.

Aimée Twum-Danso • Feb 2024

I really enjoyed this class! I was feeling a bit nervous to come alone but instantly felt relaxed and comfortable once we all started painting. Sabina is a really supportive and encouraging teacher which also helped to calm my nerves. The short meditation was a nice touch as well, I loved how mindfulness was used as a tool to help us to create art. I left feeling very zen????‍️ (The playlist was banging too)

Odelia • Feb 2024

The occasion was for me to do more things on my own and be more social!

My teacher was amazing. Explained everything thoroughly and made a nice atmosphere

Venue was beautiful

Materials were provided and they were top standard

We did guided meditation and painted on a canvas translating whatever feelings resonated with us - we also learnt how to paint a rose bouquet

It was definitely good value for money I would do it again

I loved the tea options and how calming and friendly it all and everyone was

What a great class, it was a fun afternoon. Sabina was welcoming and inspiring as a person. We was provided was a nice selection of teas as well as brushes and colours to use as paints for the class. We started the class by introducing ourselves to break the ice and then we zoned to a mindfulness audio to guide us on what we could paint. Sabina was great as she walked around to keep checking in on everyone's progress and gave us all tips on colours we could use and how we could make our work "pop" if we wasn't too certain on what to do. It was fun seeing everyone's work at the end of the class, the whole class was therapeutic.

If you're into calm-fulness, being open minded and good soul and r&b music, this is the class for you!

Anonymised ClassBento student • Aug 2023

Really enjoyable class, with good energy. Sabina is really friendly and makes the environment open and relaxed. The only thing I would say is that the session started late.

Sabina was great! I had such a lovely time. All the materials are provided and she guides you through everything (literally no art experience required!). I would 100% recommend to anyone interested. It was a really wholesome evening - thank you so much Sabina!

Joe Seez-Magner • Jun 2023

Excellent experience, Sabina is a perfect host and teacher!

Highly recommended, I look forward to my painting being on the wall for years

Sadhbha Odufuwa-Bolger • Jun 2023

Sabina was a really great facilitator, she guided us to meditate and tap into memories of happiness and self love to inspire our work. Everyone came up with really interesting, lovely pieces of art. Sabina provide great material - good brushes, easels, canvases, paints and even delicious herbal teas! The experience was great value for money and I'll definitely sign up for another class in future. It was one of the first times I've ever painted from emotion/imagination rather than life drawing/painting - which was a lovely new experience. I really liked meeting all the other lovely people in the class!

Sabina was super fun, friendly and her passion for art was infectious. She created a warm and supportive environment where everyone felt encouraged to explore their creativity. I can confidently say that the class exceeded my expectations.

Jessica Hull • May 2023

This class was so wholesome and nurturing. Sabina is a very talented artist & facilitator and has the most wonderful energy about her. It was so liberating to be led through a creative art therapy session, something I’ve been wanting to try for a long time. It was also so nice to meet other interesting & like-minded people and to creat some art together. Definitely recommend!

this class was great value for money with the best host sabina. Loved the meditation aspect too which makes this class stand out to other paint and sips

Kadidja Traore • May 2023

I absolutely loved this session. It was such a calming and relaxing activity to do. Sabina provided everything from aprons, paint brushes to tea and vibes. It was a nice intimate class that allowed everyone to show up authentically. You don’t have to be a pro painter, the session was all about expressing yourself through paint and that I did!

I’d definitely do this class again.
