"Research has shown that working with flowers can improve mood, promote wellness, enhance emotion regulation, increase self-esteem, and heighten focus and concentration. By tapping into the healthful benefits of floral arrangement, Jelena uses her talents and skills to inspire, encourage, and educate those she works with. Her interactive classes are chock full of fantastic wellness, gratitude, and team building exercises along with excellent education on how to select, style, and care for flowers!" "I was fortunate enough to participate in the Bridgerton-themed workshop, and boy was that a joy and an education! The class goes beyond teaching you the basics of floral arrangements and dives into the history behind of some of these stems and vases, as well as proper floral care and maintenance. I enjoyed working amongst other ladies and making new friends. Jelena is exceptional at making the class feel personalized and easy to follow along - I recommend it for all ages!" "I never thought doing a floral workshop could be so meditative and relaxing, not to mention so fun! I've done a few now because I keep introducing friends to Jelena’s workshops and we always have such a great time. I learned so much about keeping my flowers fresh. I smile when I see my arrangements are lasting more than a week or so. Thank you Jelena for all your tips and tricks and beautiful work! You're a great teacher!" No experience is required.
