Louisa reviewed: One Day Pottery Throwing Course, including lunch - Hampshire

"Such a fantastic day. Jack is a super teacher and gives encouraging support, when needed, whilst also allowing each person to work with a degree of independence. Several pieces can be completed and the locally produced healthy lunch was delicious. I would thoroughly recommend this excellent venue and will definitely be signing up for more in the future!"

Adrian Duthie reviewed: Highland stool making course - Scottish Highlands

"I really enjoyed doing one of Aaron's green woodworking courses last weekend, building a stool. I found it to be a charmingly refreshing change to woodwork as I knew it - rather than striving for factory machine accuracy and working drawing precision, I was guided through working dynamically with the material, exploring its strengths and using the wood's unique features to my structural and aesthetic advantage. I discovered more about the material character, by seeing it transform at every stage. Starting from a chunk of felled willow tree and turning it into a unique craft, I could feel the ownership and pride of what I was doing really come through. Book a course now- you will not regret it! Thanks for a great weekend."

Tony reviewed: Box making weekend in Cumbria

"Great course. Mark and Jay looked after us well. The 2 student to one tutor ration meant that you could always get help. Looking at the example boxes at the beginning was quite daunting but the careful step by step guidance made the process stress free and enjoyable. The course fee may initially seem a bit expensive but it's more than worth it for the training, experience, access to all the machinery, materials etc and the end result of a beautiful box."

N Cowey reviewed: Welding course: Mig, Tig, Stick, with the Iron Lady - Bradwell Blacksmiths

"If you're thinking about starting to weld do this course first. Natalie is a calm and knowledgeable teacher who managed to get all the group welding an assortment of different metals using TIG , MIG and stick. She will also give advice if you have a particular project in mind. I had a great day and learned a lot at the same time."

Carol Galvin reviewed: Make a footstool workshop

"Spent a lovely Saturday afternoon on this workshop. Everything was provided (except material) that you need to make the stool. Steph explained thoroughly every stage and if at any time you were stuck Steph was there to put you back on track. The workshop was attended by five students giving it a lovely relaxed atmosphere. I am really pleased with the end result so much so I feel confident that I could go ahead a make another stool. I would certainly recommend this workshop."

"Wow! What a fabulous day! Louise's passion and enthusiasm for silver metal clay is infectious and I've come away feeling confident and inspired! She is a very attentive and patient teacher and has completely eradicated my fears towards using a kiln, and experimenting for the first time with silver clay.
