Kelly Guenther
About the Teacher
Why study with them?
Kelly has been a ceramicist and yogi for over 20 years, and a surfer and drummer for 10 years. A former New Yorker, she moved to Mexico in 2017 to pursue a simpler and more authentic life. She desired deeper connection with friends, nature, the ocean, herself, and the freedom to make her art. While she is a highly accomplished artist, teaching has always been her deepest passion.
“I've always been a teacher, be it yoga, drumming, or ceramics. They all share something in common, helping people be kind to themselves while trying something new, connecting with their authentic self, and finding their voice. Being witness to my students when they have an "ah ha!" moment, when they get it, when they do something they never thought they could do, is one of the greatest joys in my life.”
When Kelly is not in her studio, she’s walking her dogs, singing while cooking, dancing, drumming, or playing in the ocean. She rarely wears shoes, often has clay in her hair, and wears overalls everyday. She’s a true inspiration to everyone that crosses her path, and she’s always ready to play!
