We’ve also got our first live, online workshop (with proceeds going to buy items for Don’t Walk Past group, a small, local organisation that offer practical support to those unfortunate enough to find themselves homeless). You can find out more about this special event and buy your ticket here.

About Debbie’s classes

Debbie is all about giving people the attention and support they need to get the most out of her workshops. With this in mind, her classes are small, the pace is relaxed and the atmosphere friendly.

When

There’s a mix of daytime and evening sessions with some single and some over several weeks.

One-to-One and Custom bookings

Lots of people ask about personalised courses and one to one tuition so we’re very excited to have the ability to book one-to-one and small group private tuition! Currently these sessions are available in person but we’ll be adding zoom options once we’re happy we’ve got the tech right.

Where

Our in person workshops are being held in Debbie’s new studio in Altrincham at A4 studios & AIR Gallery. It’s very easy to get to via public transport with trams, buses and trains only 5 minutes level walk away. It’s within easy reach of the M6 and M62. The studio is in an old engineering shed so the floor’s a bit uneven but we are on the ground floor and it is accessible.

Bookings

For scheduled workshops, you’ll find these on our workshops calendar page. For parties, bespoke group and one-to-one bookings, please click here or contact Debbie to discuss your requirements.

We hope to see you on a workshop soon!

Spread the love with a share!
