Took my wife there for our anniversary, we wanted to do it for a while. Our teacher Dulce, was patient, knowledgeable and attentive to each member of the class. There was a lot of info to learn but she broke it down so well that I was able to replicate exactly what she showed. My pot came out fantastic. And I’m a complete newbie. Class is super worth it and the teacher is amazing.
