"Highly recommend this course. Really enjoyed it. Dan is a great instructor and gave us a great experience. Within 15 mins of the start we were making a fire in the forge, bashing metal, learning the art of blacksmithing and having fun! Terrific. Very pleased with the fire poker that I made and came away with a huge appreciation of the skill involved in blacksmithing. A perfect 4 hour introduction to the craft. "

"Thank you Kevin,
Honestly It was a pleasure to have you along for the course and I hope to see you again.

"What an experience! I hadn't done anything like this before, so wasn't quite sure what to expect, but Dan, with a great mix of patience, humour, helpfulness and explanations, was able to turn this into one of the easily most enjoyable new experiences I've had so far. Not only did he strive to get the best out of all of us and create a real sense of achievement, but he ensured that we all left with one pretty and functional item, and one decorative one for the fun of it. It's been educational, useful and entertaining, and I cannot wait to book onto the next course."

"Hi Kati,
It was a pleasure to have you and I really pleased you enjoyed yourself. Thank you so much for attending and you kind review.
it was a great course. "
"What an extraordinary couple of days. Probably the most rewarding course I've ever done. You are guided through the entire process of making an axe - from start to finish. First watching your tutor, and then following their demonstration with your own piece of metal. This is so ordinary course, it's hard but really exhilarating work and I left feeling as though I completely understood the process. Elliott was a superb teacher and reckon. I now have a fantastic axe that I made myself - I've already put it to work and it's way better than my old B&Q axe - and best of all - I made it! "
IAStudios responded:
"Thanks You Rob,
It was great to have you, Elliott and myself are so stocked that you enjoyed the course and got so much out of it.
ps we have your hoodie and need an address to send it please. "
"Blacksmithing is fascinating and great fun to do.
Dan is a brilliant teacher. He's really knowledgeable and patient, and explains each step well. With his help, I came away with things that I never thought that I could make myself......I'm now hooked and have booked on more blacksmithing days with Dan."
