Definitely value for money - we not only (genuinely) learnt a lot, but came away with useful resources. The food and drink was also a great bonus. My friends and I all had a fun time doing this workshop. Michela was a brilliant teacher. The atmosphere was very relaxed. No complaints at all!

As a beginner, it was great to learn in a small class with such a helpful teacher. Michela was able to guide us at the different paces that we were learning at and helped us to improve on areas we needed to practice.

Teacher was very friendly and helped everyone individually, good to be in a small group (6). Pleasant venue, good light, nice background music, great bruschettas and prosecco!

I had a one to one class with Michela as the others had cancelled at the last minute. She is just the best teacher, patient and knowledgeable. The venue is great with prosecco and lovely bits to eat ! Altogether a lovely experience, and I have come away addicted to calligraphy !

We enjoyed a great evening of brush calligraphy accompanied with some prosecco and tasty Italian snacks. The class was everything I wanted and more. Our teacher Michela was very friendly and helped us throughout the class. I had definitely improved after the two hours. The venue was a light, bright Italian restaurant and all the staff were really lovely. I would definitely recommend!

It's been a fantastic experience; I always wanted to learn something about calligraphy, but for a reason or another I never had occasion to do it.Michela's introduction was fabulous, focused on teaching some of the basics to be able to start quickly.Michela is helpful and kind and extremely patient.I truly enjoyed the lesson and I highly recommend it

Really enjoyed the intro and taster into calligraphy. Michaela is incredibly warm and personable, and the small sized class made you feel that you got more of a personalised service. It was certainly a fun way to spend your Friday evening with bubbles and aperitivo as a welcome addition. I'm now in calligraphy practice mode and look forward to perfecting my new craft.
Chrissie - 6 September 2018
We learned the basics with down strokes and up strokes, before going on to write letters. Michela was a really good teacher and gave lots of good one on one time. We got to take the nice pens and practice paper home in little goodie bags that she'd made for us. It was a lovely evening, I would recommend it to any beginner.

Michela was so helpful and knowledgeable, and also made the whole evening really good fun. The venue was bright which was ideal for a calligraphy lesson.
