Kintsugi Pottery Class for Beginners
I booked this as a birthday present for a friend and we both LOVED IT. Brandon was a great teacher, he was super patient and made the space feel very comfortable. I would recommend this activity to everyone I know, great way to spend a couple of hours in a mindfulness activity where you can focus and be creative and get a beautiful end result!
Dave Johnson
It was a lovely, intimate demonstration of choclatiering. Very knowledgeable and entertaining. We made some lovey chocolates and learned so much. We think the fact it is the smallest chocolate factory makes it the best. Brilliant Christmas present for my wife. Thanks Ramnik.

Couples Wheel Throwing Workshop and Challenge
We attended the couples pottery workshop as a present for my husband. It was really good fun and Angela was a great teacher. We managed to make 4 pots in an hour, and even managed to make some as a team. The session was nice and intimate so we had Angela's expertise for the whole time. I found the hour flew by, it would have been nice to be a bit longer! Angela also offered to take photos of the session + more

The dim sum making class was given to me as a birthday gift and wow, we had the best evening! Will was amazing from start to finish- he made us feel so welcome (and made us laugh throughout). He was really encouraging and, goes without saying, beyond knowledgable. The 3 different types of dim sum we made were so fun to make (and tasted delicious, we loved eating them afterwards!) It’s such a nice + more

Thank you to Anita our teacher who explained clearly how to make a candle from scratch and infuse with oil. We learnt the difference between parrafin and soywax candles. It was a fun afternoon with a group of likeminded people. The end result was a beautiful handcrafted candle. The venue was easy to find and the workshop was light and airy and comfortable to work in. My experience was bought as a Christmas + more

We mainly used the router, sander and circular saw. We were taught + more

We also learnt about all the different + more
