Mindfulness meets the Wheel

We offer beginner courses as well as private sessions for individuals, couples, and small groups.
About
The Wheelfulness Story
Wheelfulness Pottery was founded in 2019 by Bettina Stevanovic, bringing together her background in psychology and her passion for pottery. After completing a PhD in Psychology and years of teaching at university, Bettina began practicing pottery as a hands-on, grounding hobby. Over time, what began as a personal mindfulness practice gradually evolved into a professional calling, sharing the therapeutic benefits of wheelwork.

The Wheelful Way
In Wheelfulness, the wheel is not only a tool for shaping clay, but a way of shaping the self. Our classes include somatic mindfulness prompts that invite you to develop presence and embodiment.
Calm
Ground your body and settle into stillness.
Center
Develop an embodied awareness of your own center.
Connect
Connect with the energetics of centripetal and centrifugal forces.
