Aromatherapy and Bath Crafts Workshop
It was brilliant such a lovely thing to do for mother’s day. There was only 4 of us which was great and as it felt you could ask questions to the teacher and felt very friendly. Definitely recommend great as a gift as well.

Beam was absolutely brilliant, she made the class fun and light hearted. We booked this as a surprise birthday present and the birthday girl loved it. Highly recommend.

Macrame Wall Hanging Workshop
Chelsie is such a wonderful teacher. Very personable and kind and knows her stuff. The chat was always flowing but never felt intrusive or too much.
I booked a private workshop for myself and my mum as a Christmas present to make Macrame wall hanging hearts. Neither of us had ever done Macrame before and Chelsie explained what we had to do very simply and patiently answered all of our questions andChelsie is such a wonderful teacher.

I booked a private workshop for myself and my mum as a Christmas present to make Macrame wall hanging hearts. Neither of us had ever done Macrame before and Chelsie explained what we had to do very simply and patiently answered all of our questions and helped us throughout when we had any crisis of confidence in following the pattern.
All the materials were provided and were of an excellent quality and easy to work with which meant that by the end of the workshop we both had a beautiful macrame piece we could proudly hang in any room of our house. Chelsie had also laid on loads of snacks that we could help ourselves to which was very thoughtful of her.
I loved the chilled out feeling of the workshop and the positive encouragement that Chelsie gives which felt so genuine. I also love the fact we were able to walk away with a finished piece at the end of the session.
My only complaint , and it is but small, was that it was an extremely cold day the day of the workshop, and due to the location of the Dawn Studio in relation to the doors of the Lowry Mall, it was a little chilly in the studio. However, Chelsie endeavoured to keep us warm with an electric fan heater nearby and as many hot brews as we wanted. I think I was only bothered by the coolness of the studio within the last 15-20 minutes when I decided I didn’t want to have any more hot drinks for worry of getting home on public transport without needing to stop for a loo trip. I had travelled there in a massive padded coat too so didn’t want to put that on whilst I was trying to craft. I think in future I’d just take an extra cardigan or jumper if I knew I was going to be crafting on a cold day.
An excellent experience that I would highly recommend and I will definitely be returning to try out some other workshops. + more

She helped us step by step and if we needed a little touch up she was more then happy to sort it out for us. She enabled and encouraged us to be creative and think outside the box with our vases. I would 100% do another class with both Nina and Filipa, I recommend it to anyone, especially as a present for a friend or family. I took my mum and my partner, we all buzzed off it! + more

Korean Cooking Class and Meal
What a lovely way to spend an afternoon in a pleasant location with a chef and assistant who were both personable & fun to be around.
Everything was set up brilliantly so as after a presentation of tasks by Chef we could all attempt to recreate his dishes with generally great success!
All the delicious dishes were washed down whilst sharing a mellow Zinfandel - perfect!

I booked this class for myself and a friend as part of a birthday gift and we were so impressed by the whole experience. Lizzie was so welcoming and kind and the setting was really beautiful. The class was the perfect mix of technical skill and just having a fun. You will walk away not only with a candle you love but also feeling like you’ve learned/achieved something.

Beginners Wheel Throwing Taster Class
Went for a last minute taster class as a gift to my friend. It was fantastic!
It was a small group that allowed our teacher, Chris, to be able to give enough individual attention to each of us.
Chris's guidance was great! He did make it look easy :) but his demo was so clear, and he supported us throughout our session.
We all came out with at least one piece of work after having 3 or 4 goes through the day.
Thank you!

Beginners Wheel Throwing Taster Class
The occasion was a birthday gift for my wife Kathryn. I have never experienced pottery throwing before soni was a little nervous.
As the class started, the tutor explained what we were going to do and how to do it. From there, I simply had a fabulous time and, created some pleasing looking pots, which for my first at throwing was great.
Lovely atmosphere with lots of other examples around the room to take some inspiration from.
The time whizzed by, so it must have been engrossing and very enjoyable.
Would definitely do this again in the future,The occasion was a birthday gift for my wife Kathryn. I have never experienced pottery throwing before soni was a little nervous.

The instructor was great and gave lots of great drawing prompts. The model chose a wide variety of poses which kept it interesting. There was lots of options for materials and it was all very well stocked and there was a lovely cheese selection at half time. I got it for my friend as a birthday present and she loved it
