This is a fun activity in Whitechapel, London
Learn to make a natural candle at our London studio, from essential oils alone. Candle making is a quietly absorbing hour: you focus on the scent and the pour, and the rest of the day falls away.
Your tutor starts you off with the fragrance families and how top, heart and base notes work together. You smell your way through the Yougi signature blends and choose the one your candle is for: sleep, energy, calm or lift.
Then you make it. You heat the eco soy wax, measure in your essential oils, set the cotton wick and pour your own 170ml candle. It sets before the class ends, so it goes home with you the same evening, with around 35 hours of burn.
A hand-poured candle makes a present that looks like you spent more than you did. Come with a name in mind and leave with the gift made.
For teams, hen parties and celebrations, we run the studio privately: everyone blends their own, everyone leaves with theirs. Message us with your dates and group size.
We have two London studios, at Marble Arch and Whitechapel. Each date shows its location, and full directions go out with your booking.
