Meet Tallulah. We first crossed paths with Tallulah when she was working on a passion project: Eco Made Easy, a no-frills guide to sustainable student living in Wellington. After swiftly spotting her talent, we nabbed her to design the amazing illustrations on our website
An illustrator and textile designer with a passion for sustainability, Tallulah also hand makes colourful and playful creations and prints.
The best words of advice she's ever received is: "leap before you're ready".. and based on what she's achieved, it's safe to say that she listened.
Come meet Tallulah at our Sustainable Santa Market. But don't poach her cause we will cry.

Come and try Spin Poi before Christmas
Playing with poi is a lot of fun! SpinPoi can be done sitting or standing and is suitable for almost everyone. Inspired by traditional poi, it has been adapted by Dr Kate Riegle van West to be a safe and effective exercise, especially for older populations. On top of the usual benefits of exercise, typically people will see improvements in grip strength, attention, focus, balance and coordination.
Karori Community Centre
Friday, 4 December, from 11.15 am to 12.00 pm
Price: $4
No need to book. Poi provided. Or there some new sets available for sale if you want your own personal set. The class is suitable for beginners to intermediate. It will be 45 minutes long and we cover:
o Welcome, safety reminders and warm up
o Practice of basic poi movements
o Playtime! 20-25 minutes of poi to music
o Cool down
Deb Gully has been leading seated exercise for seniors for more than 10 years and is now Wellington's first certified SpinPoi instructor. She has been taking Spin Poi classes on Zoom, and is thrilled to now be teaching live classes. For more information on SpinPoi, and to see video of people playing with poi, go to www.spinpoi.com...
