THE CENTRE FOR YOUR ATTENTION
NURTURING CREATIVITY AND EMPOWERING WELLBEING FOR CHILDREN AND ADULTS
The journey of Canvass started with a spark: to help others become masters of their own lifelong learning. That spark ignited a mission: to become a leading centre for the transformative power of Mindfulness, Movement and Art.
And the centre has grown to become a community dedicated to nurturing creativity and empowering wellbeing.
Canvass was established by Jolie Michelle in 2005, and her compassion, drive and positivity has helped this unique facility evolve.
We aim to be a catalyst for joy
Our goal is for every member to carry effective new skills out of the studio and into their everyday, so that classroom skills become lifelong skills, and learning can always continue.
In offering a supportive environment, world class instructors and an inspiring curriculum focused on physical, mental and emotional awareness, we aim to be a catalyst for joy.
our vision
Canvass aspires to be a centre for change, inspiring transformation locally for global impact.
We strive to be Singapore’s leader in mindfulness, unlocking the power of consciousness for families, schools and corporations to promote higher creativity, productivity and purpose.
We aim to cultivate a vibrant community of innovative thinkers, thought leaders and change-makers capable of improving the future for us all.
our values
RESPECT
We are passionate about facilitating programmes that have a positive impact on your life, and we celebrate your success. We plan and adapt the content of our sessions to bring you meaningful topics for stimulating discussion and reflection, providing you with opportunities for further self-discovery to explore in your own space and time.
PURPOSE
We honour and celebrate the individuality of all our members. In our classes we teach self-care practices that nurture compassion and empathy towards ourselves and others. By understanding and being kinder to ourselves we learn to be more inclusive of others.
TRUST
We provide a calm environment where you can reconnect with yourself and others in a way that is not about work, beliefs or commitments, but about tending to your inner self and true voice. The unique bonding activities we provide through our classes, retreats, and empowerment workshops are carefully delivered to ensure you always feel comfortable to take risks, grow from mistakes and express yourself.
WISDOM
We pay homage to ancient teachings and how they continue to help us today. We draw on the wisdom of those that have gone before us in the fields of art, spirituality, holistic health and science. Bringing forth their sacred knowledge with integrity reveals its timeless function and purpose in modern life, from which we can all benefit.
