An Institutional Presence Across Three Continents for over 30 years
The Elixir VIP: Private Studio Experience
The Private Studio Experience is the pinnacle of the Master’s teaching and craft, offered on an exclusive, private one-to-one or one-to-two basis. It is a seven-day, fully bespoke engagement priced at £10,000 or more, depending on location and project scope.
Core Experience and Focus
This private masterclass transcends standard instruction by integrating the client’s goals directly into the philosophical and practical curriculum.
- Custom Commission: The seven-day intensive is typically centered around a high-value, custom commission—such as a personal crest, a specialized architectural element, or a piece of philosophical sculpture—which the client either works on personally or observes the Master executing while receiving highly focused, private instruction.
- Philosophical Integration: The experience is a direct application of the Master’s unique Intellectual Property (IP), leveraging principles like Arete (excellence) and Eudaimonia (human flourishing) to deliver a transformative experience that applies to both stone carving and professional life.
- Mindful Refuge: It provides a Mindful Refuge from the demands of the modern world, fostering absolute presence and stripping away non-essential distractions through the rigorous, tactile demands of the craft.
- Exclusivity & Discretion: All participants are required to sign Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) to reinforce the exclusivity of the content and protect the unique lineage and unreleased intellectual property shared by the Master.
Logistics and High-End Service
The Private Studio Experience is often held at a custom international location, with all logistics managed by a network of specialized “Local Fixers” to ensure a flawless luxury experience. The fee covers all materials, bespoke tools, and dedicated, non-stop access to the Master’s expertise for the full seven-day duration. The experience is designed to leave the client with profound, lasting clarity and a direct connection to an unbroken lineage of craft.
