Massage Candle Making Class

Craft relaxing massage candles that melt into your skin - perfect for dates or self-care enthusiasts



1.5 hours Location Manhattan Class size 1 to 12 guests   $66

Join our NYC Massage Candle Making Workshop and learn how to create luxurious, skin-nourishing massage candles from start to finish. In this hands-on class, you’ll melt and pour your own massage candle using our premium skin-safe soy wax, natural butters and nourishing oils, and pure essential oils for an indulgent aromatherapy experience. You’ll melt, mix, and pour your custom blend as you follow simple guidance that keeps the process fun, soothing, and completely beginner-friendly.
This class is perfect for self-care, romantic evenings, or thoughtful handmade gifts. All levels are welcome.
If you have allergies, please contact us in advance so we can accommodate your needs. We offer alternative, non-soy wax options to ensure a safe and comfortable experience for everyone.
Note that massage candles require around 2 hours of curing time before they’re ready to take home. We invite you to explore the Hell’s Kitchen neighborhood—grab a coffee, enjoy nearby shops, or take a walk—and return later the same day (or another day) to pick up your finished candle.

Recent reviews of Massage Candle Making Class

  • 5/5 from Katherina Fuchs, attended Feb 2026: I loved this class. Its such a cosy space, super well organised. The teacher was clear with instructions the whole time while making the assuage candle. My fiance also really enjoyed himself. The selection of scents was lovely. I'd recommend anyone to give this a go with friends or your SO for a date night. Thank you!

At Vela we treat candlemaking like cooking. All it takes is the right recipe, quality ingredients, a dash of creativity, and a pinch of patience to make the perfect candle!
Our studio is designed to feel like you are stepping into a friend’s kitchen — open, warm, and full of character. Shelves are lined with ingredients and tools you can see and reach, ready to be used. The butcher-block tables are where everything happens, and our kitchen is out in the open - nothing is behind closed doors. It’s simple, personal, and a little imperfect in the best way — the kind of space where you instantly feel comfortable rolling up your sleeves.​
From classic soy candles to custom massage candles, wax melts, and accent arch candles, every class is a full start-to-finish experience where you’ll learn about the ingredients we use, why we use them, and how they come together.
Our workshops are perfect for friend hangouts, birthdays, date nights, team events, celebrations, or a cozy rainy-day activity. All our workshops are beginner friendly! Whether you come solo or with your crew, you’ll leave with a candle (or two) that looks amazing, smells incredible, and tells your story.
