Recent reviews of Half-day Woodturning Class
- 5/5 from Sophie Trudeau, attended Feb 2026: Absolutely wonderful session. I was coached through the entire process as a complete novice myself. A very safe and carefully taught class. Highly recommend! I made a beautiful wood bowl, which I plan to decorate one of my shelves with.
- 5/5 from Johan Nordin, attended May 2025: Wood turning is quite a unique craft so I was happy to find a class for beginners. Masuma is a an excellent teacher and her workshop is fully equipped with everything you need to create something amazing. She showed me various techniques and explained which tools were best for each method. She guided me as I turned a rolling pin, which is harder to make than you think. I am so pleased I did this class and would recommend Masuma highly as a teacher.

I am a London-based artist and woodturner. With East African and Indian heritage, I am particularly drawn to working with rare and exotic woods. All of the timber I use is sustainably sourced, and, where possible, reclaimed.Inspired by the woodturning traditions which developed in northern Africa 3, 000 years ago, to my knowledge, I am the only Muslim woman woodturner working in Britain today. I work from my studio in south-east London and am available for commissions, as well as tuition.I am an accredited woodturning tutor and have exhibited my work at Handmade Oxford, Handmade Chelsea and Lamdmark Arts Centre. In 2024 I was shortlisted for the New Ashgate Rising Stars award.
