A fun and engaging session, thanks to Filipa who is a great tutor. My wife and I enjoyed it very much. All tools are provided and studio has ample parking around the area. The duration of the class allows a number of attempts and you are able to pick your best work at the end. I look forward to picking up my masterpiece!

I really enjoyed my class. The tutor Filipa explained things well and helped when I was having any troubles, which ensured I learnt and finished the class with some pieces to take home! I made four pieces in the 2 hr session. I went alone and didn't feel uncomfortable at any time. There were two other people and the max is 4 students.
