Description
This workshop takes teams on a creative journey through texture, colour, and storytelling using a mix of materials — watercolour, collage, ink, and more. Rooted in the principles of therapeutic art, each session follows a gentle, guided theme (such as resilience, growth, or connection) that invites participants to express ideas and emotions that words sometimes cannot capture. No artistic skill is needed — just curiosity and a willingness to play.
Benefits
Benefits: Emotional expression, creative problem-solving, stress relief, team cohesion, psychological safety
Format: Instructor-led, theme-based, individual or collaborative creation
Who it's for: Teams looking to think differently, decompress, and connect
Additional Experience Info
Maximum 10 people per session

About the Host
Alka Chopra is a healthcare professional for the last 20 years. She is a registered dietitian, certified Motivational Interviewing trainer, and therapeutic art practitioner who helps teams reconnect with their creativity, resilience, and wellbeing — from the inside out.
With a background rooted in behaviour change science and expressive arts, Alka designs experiences that go beyond typical team building. Her workshops use the science of nutrition, mindfulness, and Pastel Nagomi art to reduce stress, spark creative thinking, and foster genuine human connection in the workplace.
Alka's approach is grounded in evidence and delivered with warmth — creating a space where teams feel safe to slow down, reflect, and rediscover what it means to lead and collaborate with energy and intention.
She brings a rare blend of clinical expertise and creative facilitation to every session, making her workshops as nourishing for the mind as they are energizing for the team.
