Every workshop is inclusive of all tools and materials, eliminating the need for pre-purchasing supplies. Feel free to bring your own tools and kit if you already have them.
You will leave your workshop with your creations and handouts and information about what and where to buy, to a range of different budget options, to enhance your newly acquired skills beyond our workshop.
Workshops maintain an intimate setting with a maximum of 5 or 6 students, depending on the specific workshop. This ensures that everyone receives individualised attention, fostering a comfortable and engaging experience.
Availability for each workshop is highlighted below. This page is manually updated, so the displayed numbers may not reflect real-time availability when you make your booking.
In the event that a workshop is already at full capacity when you enrol, I will promptly notify you and add your name to the workshop’s waitlist.
Workshops are organised in 6-month blocks, with additional dates added as workshops reach full capacity, dependent on time availability.
