I was given a voucher as a present and decided to do a Sauce cooking course at The Avenue Cookery School. Diana was a very engaging teacher. She gave us really good tips and solutions including recipes for sauces that were flexible and useful for so many dishes. She explain the logic of the cooking process without prescribed instructions. Lovely relaxed afternoon and lunch.

Smartphone Photography Workshop - Richmond-upon-Thames
The workshop was a birthday gift from my nieces and nephews, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The instructor was excellent, clearly explaining various techniques to use the iPhone for producing high-quality photos. We covered everything from capturing reflections on shiny surfaces to choosing the best scenic spots in Richmond, whether on the Green, in photogenic alleys, or in charming cafes along the river. + more

Had this workshop as a Christmas gift and loved every minute of it. David was a patient and enthusiastic teacher and with his help and guidance we were thrilled to create mugs that we can’t wait to have fired and proudly drink from!!

Ikebana Flower Arranging Workshop
The ikebana course was 2 hours and they have managed to fit a lot into it. We got taught the basics but enough to give us a base to start creating our ikebana arrangements. The group was small, which helped to follow the steps, interact and get to ask questions the teacher. I would recommend it to anyone who would like to give this as a present or see if ikebana is something that they are passionate + more

Lots of nice like minded people so don’t be afraid to attend alone. Good value for money. I really enjoyed the process of Kintsugi from picking my bowl right through to finish. All materials included along + more

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.

Clear directions to location. Teacher was friendly, enthusiatic, put you at ease from the get go, and willing to answer all questions throughout the workshop. The materials provided were of great quality, with clear instructions of how to use them along the way. A great introduction to Kintsugi, ideal as a single/couple/group or as a gift for someone looking for craft ideas

The class was pitched perfectly and was accessible while still offering a little bit of a challenge. This all was definitely helped by Brandon whose expertise and charisma really made the experience. The studio space was lovely and created a cosy and relaxed atmosphere. Would definitely + more

The class was a birthday present from my daughter. Sharon was a teacher with a lot of patience and explained everything clearly. The venue and materials were good. Not easy to get to without a car, so we got a taxi. Loved the whole experience, and will do it again.

I booked this class for a birthday present for a friend and three of us went. The teacher was really nice and helpful, she spread her time evenly, and she answered all our questions. There was enough time for one object repair and someone had enough time to fix his own bowl as well. All materials were provided and of great quality, and the ceramics are upcycled. The venue was very nice, just a bit + more
