I found the class so informative and rewarding and especially liked that there was an opportunity to make two items within the class, which I very much look forward to receiving. The studio space is really welcoming and the class size was nice - enough people to make new friends but not so many people that you don't feel you get enough assistance or advise - which Yasuko is great at giving. As a teacher, Yasuko is very patient and her skills are very evident in the wonderful work she has displayed in the studio.
