### My story

Janbo’s story? Clay, soul, home. Feb 2020, I just dropped everything - job, modelling, socials, even WhatsApp. Me, my room, Pinto (my dog), and silence. No clue what next, just floating. One slow-living vlog with clay hands, and bam, something shifted. Clay walked in, travel sprinkled its magic, people and stories mixed in. That’s how Janbo happened. This studio is my heart, where it all finally made sense.

### My work

- **Pottery & Creative Workshops**: We run pottery workshops for beginners and pros, plus ceramic painting, sculpture, and silver jewellery sessions.
- **Pop-up Workshops**: Our studio’s in Bengaluru, but we often do pop-up pottery workshops in Chennai and other cities.
- **A Slow Living Vibe**: It’s not just a class, it’s a mindful clay art escape. Come solo, bring friends, no experience needed.
- **Artist Community**: We host artists from all over, sharing new crafts and stories. Everyone’s welcome to learn and chill.
