I have thoroughly enjoyed the workshops run by Sarah.There is nothing
better than hands on experience with some expert guidence..
Experimenting with wonderful natural plant products, essential oil
scents, sharing ideas with others in the class, did encourage me to try
new things at home.

Cheers Jennie

WORKSHOP DAY WITH SARAH LINTON
A group of five ladies asked Sarah to come to my home and demonstrate how to make various products. Sarah gave us a great range of products to to choose from to make and we decided on rolled beeswax candles, lip balm, glycerine soap, hand milled soap, bath bombs, and body lotion. Sarah supplied all the items required to make our masterpieces so we didn't have to worry about anything. We had a wonderful day and although we were kept very busy, we didn't feel pressurised or rushed at all. At the end of the day we all took home everything we had made and we were all pleasantly surprised as to how easy they were all to make and how wonderful the finished product looked. Sarah also supplied us with printed copies of recipes of what we had made along with instructions and also addresses of where to get our ingredients, containers etc should we want to make more in future. As a teacher we found Sarah excellent and totally recommend her to anyone wishing to learn about making the products she has to offer.

I have attended a number of Sarah’s workshops they are always carried out in a friendly but professional way. Sarah has an amazing amount of knowledge to share and will always answer your questions with patients. It is a good place to gain knowledge but also to make new friends that have the enjoyment of the crafts you will explore with Sarah.

Sarah Linton has great knowledge and experience
in aromatherapy and homeopathic treatments. Her workshops are fun and you get to make potions and lotions that you can use at home and in the first aid kit. I recommend her as a very skilled person.

I was lucky enough to attend Sarah Lintons workshops on soapmaking,cream & balm making & bath essentials using natural ingredients [herbs and essential oils].
I found the workshops very enjoyable and easy to follow. I also did a massage course with Sarah which was also informative & as she makes you feel relaxed & comfortable,I found it very enjoyable too.

Sarah has a wide knowledge on natural healing remedies including aromatherapy & homeopathy.
I would recommend her work shops to any one interested in natural alternatives.

I am a 55 yr old hill country farmer with the usual old rugby & life injuries.
I have been using Sarah Lintons Massage Balm with really good results. It relieves the joint pain associated with over use syndrome and is able to relax the muscles.
I would like to recommend Sarah's Massage Balm to anyone who is suffering from joint pain. My wife tells me the smell of the balm is so much nicer than other similar balms.

Really enjoyed the workshops at Marangai with Sarah. A lovely homely atmosphere, great rural setting and a very good teacher. Everyone was very friendly and we all learnt a hang of a lot. Thanks Sarah.

"I find Sarah's workshops exciting, informative and lots of fun. You have a hand in creating your own products, it's not all "by the book". A very satisfying and worthwhile experience.

I am hereby testiment to Sarah's aromatherapy
and massage abilities.
Apart from introducing me to many wonderful
aspects of the concepts, she can get the pain
out of my neck when required with her magic
massage mits and her oil blend is helping to iron
out the wrinkles but I think I'll need to pay a
visit to my GP to get this thorn out of my side!!!

Just a quick note to thank you so very much for a fabulous day on Friday. The feed back has been extremely positive, with many of the girls agreeing that the course certainly exceeded their expectations. Everyone left with that warm fuzzy feeling - so looks like the mission was accomplished! You were well prepared and organised - good luck with everything else.

I attended Sarah's first Wairarapa workshop 6 years ago and have attended 5 more since then. Her workshops are interesting, economical and lots of fun. I would recommend her workshops to anyone interested in making their own basic creams, cosmetics and soap.

I have been extremely lucky to attend Sarah's workshops. They are instructive and enjoyable. Her teachings are easy to follow and were beyond my limits of expectations. Sarah is very skilled and well informed. She offers a relaxed and comfortable enviroment and is always prepared to go the extra mile. The friendly atmosphere had given me the oppourtunity to meet other like-minded people. I travel from Whanganui to Marangai and the workshops are thouroughly worth it. Sarah has given me confidence to create my own products and treat my families ailments in a basic process.
My two daughters, aged 8 and 10, also find the workshops fun and exciting. I am highly thrilled to be present at more workshops in the near future.
