Dama Terra experiences are designed to help you reconnect, explore, and enjoy the joy of making something real, one mindful moment at a time.
Imagine weekly sessions, where you can immerse yourself in clay, explore organic forms, using hand build techniques, and let your creativity unfold naturally.
Each session is carefully guided, but the pace is yours. You’ll feel the texture, weight, and temperature of clay, discover how it responds to your touch, and watch your ideas transform into tangible forms.
Along the way, you’ll meet others, share inspiration, and leave each session with pieces that carry the quiet magic of your own hands and the energy of the earth.
Doing ceramics with Danielle is like stepping into a warm hug. You learn at your own pace and explore your own path to creating. At first, I thought I wanted to stick to conventional ceramics, but Danielle gently encouraged me to explore a more creative side and, thanks to that, I brought home some truly amazing pieces that I enjoy every day, feeling proud of what I made. The studio atmosphere is so welcoming and joyful, and the pão de queijo, homemade cakes, and tea make it even more special!

When I started doing ceramics I couldn’t imagine I was going to feel in love! Danielle’s studio is a place where you go and want to spend all day. Her attention to the details and her welcoming presence make the class very enjoyable! The experience I have there is always so positive and meaningful. I enjoy making pieces that bring love and colour to my home.
I’m grateful for Danielle to introduce me to this beautiful craft.

* 8th of March – International Women’s Day.
A ceremonial ceramic experience rooted in the Sacred Feminine and the healing power of clay. Through ceremony and somatic practices, we connect with the magical vessels of our female bodies, remembering symbols and archetypes held within. From there, participants create with clay using intuitive hand-building, allowing forms to emerge naturally, without pressure or expectation.
With Danielle Martins Thomé and Ilaria Bertuola.
No previous experience is needed.
SPACES LIMITED TO 13 participants. Lovely afternoon snacks provided.
Bring your own yoga mat and blanket. We look forward to having you with us on this creative celebration of the Deep Feminine.
Do you want to offer something different for your team, retreat, or special event?
I collaborate with event managers, retreat organisers, and creative partners to design experiences that add a tactile, mindful, and artistic dimension. From team-building workshops to bespoke retreats, I can bring clay, creativity, and the spirit of Pachamama into your offering.
