Classes were well-designed and the instruction was high quality and also gave confidence to users.”

“Brett is a fantastic teacher and instructor. He helped guide my granddaughter who attended the class with me to create and finish two wonderful projects, a stool (or side table) and a chopping board.

Safety was his first priority and the mandatory use of safety PPE where required was insisted upon. The workshop is probably the best equipped one that I've seen, too.

And the bonus is a nice cafe on the corner where we got lunch and delish coffee.”

I’m a hands on learner, so this suited me to a tea. After each class I went home and wrote everything down to remember it along with paperwork outlining what to expect in each class.”
