It's time to let go of self-doubt and start making the imagery you've been envisioning.
We can all make beautiful art. It just takes showing up and doing what we say we long to do. My mission is to encourage (mature) women to start truly believing in their creativity.
It's never too late. No matter your age or stage you can start today.
What if you didn't have to do it alone? What if you could share your journey with other creatives just like you?
Being a part of the Inner Circle means being surrounded by an extraordinary community that understands how vital creativity is! A circle that speaks the same language and celebrates one another as they learn, discover, and grow together.
I had no idea how much I needed this community. Since launching the circle, my creativity has exploded, and I've seen this happen to many of the circle members as well. It's truly a magical thing. Come join us.
Laura's Story
I joined the Inner Circle in July. I wasn’t sure how much I’d get out of the class but I just FELT that I needed to sign up...the night before it started. I could never have imagined how much I NEEDED to join The Inner Circle. My desire to create has come back. I’m getting my photos off my phone and computer and I’m PRINTING them...nearly every day! I’m l o v i n g PhotoShop (I used to hate it) and dusting off my Lightroom skills. And best of all, I’ve met and/or become reacquainted with online friends and fellow creatives. To say Kim’s Inner Circle is inspiring is a huge understatement. This 30 project never would have happened without Kim and her encouragement and the encouragement of my fellow Inner Circle friends."—Laura Bastien
What if 2021 is the year you stop scrolling, consuming, watching, and simply start? Imagine where you might be if you finally started to show up to your creative calling consistently?

Sometimes our own creative light goes out and then is rekindled by a spark from another person. With the creation of the Inner Circle ~ Kim gave me the spark I needed and rekindled my creative spirit.
Kim has a calming and relaxed approach in her teaching and sharing as she provides sprinkles of knowledge and creativity through classes and live talks. She is there to answer questions and is so supportive as we learn new techniques from her and use those techniques to create art.
If you love creating, photography, being around the kindest group of creative people you will ever meet, and being inspired, I would encourage you to join the Inner Circle. You will always learn something new. In the most fun way! —Susan Wagener
Oh the fun The Inner Circle is having. Each week we gather on Zoom from all around the world, chat, laugh, inspire, and come away refreshed with more ideas to create than any of us have time to accomplish.
This class has literally lifted each one of us out of the world of sorrowful events and we simply cannot give enough thanks to Kim Klassen for her leadership, and brilliant ideas and all the free assets she’s made for us, plus bringing us together in the loveliest group. —Beverly Cazzell
Kim is a Godsend. She lifts my spirits every week. Her live calls are filled with inspiration and love. She makes a sad world happy. —Debra Miller
a late starter to the circle I am loving the vibe of the circle and the lively chat just makes me laugh right down to my toes. I picked up my Tango X this afternoon so am now ready to go back and learn all I’ve missed out on. —Judy Burstall
made little calendars and printed them using the templates and excellent instructions of Km Klassen. She offers a separate class just for calendar making but offers so much more through her Inner Circle. Thanks, Kim! —Carolyn Hill
I’ve said it a lot, but I’m so thankful for Kim Klassen's Inner Circle membership for figuring out a way to teach a non-crafty person to create while mingling technical learning in Photoshop and Lightroom with my scissors and glue. —Lori Rice
love, love, Kim Klassen's Inner Circle. a place where people of all levels are encouraged to participate in a loving and creative environment. —Kim Swanson
The Inner Circle that Kim has created is the most beautiful and inspiring space. Kim so generously shares her wealth of knowledge and creative ideas and she also brings joy each week in her live calls with the Inner Circle members. It is truly magical and uplifting. A gift, especially during such challenging times. I am so grateful to Kim for the light she shines on my heart.” —Loralie Hoffart
