Sara Wait is the founder of Slow Burn, a St. Paul-based candle studio dedicated to slow living, sustainability, and mindfulness. With a background in yoga and over a decade of teaching experience, Sara brings a calming, intentional presence to her workshops. Her beeswax candles are handcrafted using locally sourced materials and traditional techniques that honor both the earth and the craft. Sara’s classes invite participants to reconnect with their senses through meaningful, hands-on experiences.
