It might sound alternative but a laughter wellness class in Sydney has more benefits than you might have ever thought!

You’ll take part in a laughter workout which will involve clapping, breathing, affirming and laughter exercises.

Learn how to make skincare from natural ingredients, no nasties, and reap the benefits of your new and improved skincare routine long after the day is over. You and your guests will take home your own DIY skincare and the skills to make many more products at home, making it one of the best things to do in Sydney! Keen to hear more about the ingredients used in this class? Polly of Sage Cosmetic Coaching shares her knowledge!
" Essential oils as a natural skincare ingredient are fabulous. They centre a product, so they make them smell fantastic, but they have really strong skincare benefits while also having an impact on the body and your emotional health. So when we're putting together a recipe, it's really exciting to be able to consider all of those things, not only making it smell amazing, but you know, how is it gonna make you feel and what benefit is going to have on the skin. Some other ingredients we use are vegetable oils. So some things that people would've heard of are things like sunflower oil, coconut, jojoba oil. We use them in a lot of our products, as well as natural ingredients like clays and beeswax, shea butter. We even use salts and ground coffee in some of our recipes as well. So, you know, a whole variety of things, some are more specialized for skincare and others are definitely things that you can use from your pantry."
4. Tarot reading class
We’ve all tried to predict our futures, so now you can actually learn how to read tarot cards with our local expert Sydney based teacher. In this unique class, your hen party will love being taught how to read tarot cards. In this two hour class, you will go through the Major Arcana using exercises to learn how to instantly read every single card. Who knows, perhaps the cards will predict bliss for the bride-to-be's marriage.
5. Soy candle making class
As we’re all trying to become more eco-conscious, now is the time to start at home by switching up the small things to make a huge impact. We recommend taking part in our candle making classes in Sydney which only use soy wax. Once you learn how to make your own scents, you’ll be able to replace any candles in your home with the ones you make! As we only use soy candles, this means you won’t be burning and carcinogens or any nasties which are harmful to the environment.
6. Tai Chi workshop
Tai Chi is an absolutely beautiful art form which is often overlooked by many people. As a non-strenuous exercise, it encompasses mindfulness moving meditation where you’ll feel so relaxed, you’ll feel so chilled out and content after a private Tai Chi class run by some of Sydney’s best Tai Chi experts.
7. Massage workshop
Organise a relaxing massage workshop so that the hens party can totally chill out while learning a brand new skill.

With a huge range of cooking classes to choose from, learn how to make a vegan Indian curry, or learn how to make your own sushi from scratch. When you cook more foods from scratch, you’re more likely to be more conscious of what you’re ordering when eating out.

We invite your hens party to get their hands dirty and learn how to make a terrarium in Sydney! Learn from our expert local teachers and start building a beautiful jungle at home.
10. Paint and sip class
