Education & Workshops
Education that
affirms who you are.
NABUHA brings hands-on, culturally grounded wellness and creative workshops to campuses and communities across the Bay Area. We customize every session around the people in the room.
“You leave with something you made, and the skill to make it again.”

Perfume & Cologne Lab
Skip the mass-produced dupes. Make the scent you've always pictured.
Work with professional aromatic compounds to build a custom scent from top, heart, and base notes. You'll cover concentration levels, scent layering, and the chemistry of how fragrance works, then adjust and fine-tune the formula to your own body chemistry before you bottle it. If you've always had a vision for the perfect fragrance, this is where you formulate it.
Aromatherapy Candle Making
When the world feels out of your control, take back your space.
Set a wellness intention, then build around it. Formulate a fragrance oil blend, calculate your wax-to-fragrance ratio, and finish a candle with botanical additives and a custom label. Blend something that calms your nervous system, or something that keeps you energized and focused through a work session. Either way, you leave as the master of your space.

Our Approach
What makes NABUHA workshops different.
Hands-On
Every workshop involves doing, not just listening. Participants leave with something made, practiced, or internalized.
Identity-Affirming
Content is built around the lived experiences of diverse communities. We don't teach at people. We teach with them.
Community-Centered
Workshops are designed to build connection, not just knowledge. Every session is an opportunity to build real trust.
Curriculum-Aligned
School workshops can be designed to complement existing coursework and meet educational standards where required.
“Their commitment to fostering an inclusive, culturally responsive, and community-led environment provides tangible benefits to historically marginalized communities by promoting both individual growth and collective empowerment.”
Dr. Daniel D. Zarazua
Director · Alternatives in Action High School, Oakland
Pricing
Pricing is variable based on scope, session length, audience size, and organizational budget. We work with schools and community organizations to find something that fits.
We believe access to quality education shouldn't depend on budget. If you're working with limited resources, reach out. We're open to conversations about what's possible.
Bring a workshop to
your community.
Tell us about your school, organization, or event and we'll put together a proposal that fits.
