The subject of our class was origami. I started by showing them how to fold a single piece of paper, carefully stressing the importance of forming an accurate crease, folding with intention and confidence, and replicating the folds to make building blocks for a bigger sculpture. The class very eagerly started making the pieces. Of course there were difficulties. Folding takes time and patience, but eventually once they knew how to make one, it was a meditative flow in which everyone was building together.
