Linda Chamberlain reviewed: One day glassblowing lesson for beginners

"The course was beautifully staged to help you understand and have a go at the processes involved in glassblowing. A well constructed balance between letting you have a go and producing great products to take home. A very friendly and supportive environment, and a memorable occasion. Well worth attending."

Robert reviewed: One day glassblowing lesson for beginners

"Last Saturday my wife and I did a full day workshop with Jonathan. We’ve done a lot of different experience/ workshop days and this was the best. The workshop was clean, spacious and well equipped. Jonathan is a great guy, a very good tutor and he explained things clearly. He started us off with some small technique pieces before moving on to making a paperweight before lunch. In the afternoon we made vases and baubles. We had lots of choice over our designs with a Jonathan guiding us to ensure it was achievable. Jonathan’s own work is stunning, and to have someone of that standard teaching us was great. The fact that it was just two of us in the class meant the day flowed well. We’re already thinking we might make a return visit. Worth every penny. There’s a very good little cafe on site, so our lunch break was a real treat too."

"What a fabulous course and wonderful 50th Birthday present for my best friend. We both took part as I simply couldn't resist being left out of the day and gaining an insight into such an intriguing artisan craft. Jonathan is an engaging and highly skilled teacher. Patience is definitely his middle name. His enthusiam and passion for creating beautiful, unique and perfect pieces of glass art is simply contagious - we want to fill our homes with his exquisite pieces! The techniques he showed us were inspiring and only being beginners we were so amazed at the number of pieces we made on the day. Couldn't recommend his classes more highly and can't wait to book our next lesson - if he will have us back of course!"

"An excellent introduction to glass craft, learnt so much and can’t belive how much we got to create. Jonathan is an excellent teacher and very patient. Fantastic value for money would recommend to everyone, the pieces we made were impressive, I would go again!"
