Aromatherapy Candle Making Class Reviews

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.

“Peter was a delight. Warm personality and delivered the class with charm. Instructions were clear although adorably fractured, and our candles came out amazingly. The essentials oils were therapeutic to the senses for sure, would recommend”

“Informative about candles and the ingrediants we don't realise go into making them. The essential oil blends you can use are all lovely and the teacher went through each step thoroughly, from choosing scents to adding the wick to adding the scent blend to the wax and pouring into the glass. In the end you have a lovely candle to take home (the wax didn't take that long to set) and more awareness as to what goes into shop-bought candles.”
