What is a workshop?

All our workshops are hands on sessions for all abilities, ranging from beginner to advanced levels. You can learn any aspect of bonsai in this class. You have a choice of;-

A HALF DAY (two hour) workshop (held during the week) or a WHOLE DAY (four hour) workshop (held at the weekend)

The workshops usually start at 11am to 1pm for the Half Day workshop and from 11am -4pm (with an hour's break for lunch) for the Whole Day workshop.

Prices - £49 for a Half-Day and £69 for the Whole Day workshop.

Prices for the workshops are for instruction only. You can bring your own material (one tree per person please) to work on or use material from our nursery. If you like what you make on the workshop you simply pay for the material at the end of the class. If you simply wish to use our material to practice on, you are welcome to do that too.

We offer a choice of courses to cater for all abilities. Excellent value considering what you can learn in just a short while.

New dates are posted on our web site each month. You can book a course online or over the phone.

Our workshops teach you all you need to know about a particular subject from how to care for various species to how create them from ordinary trees and shrubs.
