Had a lot of fun with this class! Really enjoyed experimenting with all the different techniques, and ended up stylising a chopping board, keyring and two spatulas to take home that I was very pleased with. Was even given a free drink ;)

I had the best time at this class! It was well instructed and a great group of people. I love the process of Pyrography and was great to learn it in a class. Can't wait to continue with projects at home.

This is THE most hospitable art/craft course I've ever done (and I've done a few). Our tutors were super friendly and very experienced. They had a great balance for teaching us as individuals as well as a whole group. The number & variety of wooden items we got to work on (and take home) was extremely generous. Equally Amber readily shared loads of info about continuing a pyrography practice ourselves (and did not couch this in more courses!). I felt hugely inspired and informed by this beginner course to easily continue this craft on my own. There are so few pyrography courses out there I don't hesitate to say this is one of the best!

Just great, what a lovely way to relax after a hard week. It’s a great craft and whether you are going to try it just once or take it up full time after this it’s a brilliant experience. Feel grown up and creative using the specialised tools and have fun making a whole range of products! Real value for money (I enjoyed myself and made a bunch of presents). An excellent, friendly instructor who is welcoming and informative. I so recommend this - go burn stuff!

Sonia was very welcoming and was a very good host. She was really helpful in giving us tips as to how to handle the heat tool and the different tips/nibs that we could use to make different shapes and effects on the wood. There were lots of opportunities to try out different techniques and we had a piece of wood on which we could try out various styles and nibs.Sonia also told us how we can continue pyrography at home: what type of heat tool we could purchase and where to get the different bits of chopping board, spatulas or little wooden shapes for decoration.The class size was good - there were 9 of us at the time, and it was a good number for the size of the room. 3 hours also seemed a good amount of time for the workshop. A lot of us got to decorate most of the wooden items that we got (if not all of them). There was enough time to take breaks without feeling like you need to rush to get everything done.Lastly, I mustn't forget to mention that it was a nice touch to have prosecco or cups of tea for those who wanted it!

Unfortunately I was very disappointed in this class. Although the teacher was friendly she not demonstrate any techniques and introduced the class by saying 'there wouldnt really be any teaching'. We started almost 45 minutes late and the venue was filthy and run down. A real let down.
