GROUP CLASS FORMAT
​
The group classes are run once a week for four weeks. The groups are limited to only 12 learners per class – this way each learner gets the most out of the course and lots of opportunity to practice, make notes and ask questions.
We have a whatsapp group for each class in order to support one another and share our creations when the course is finished!
​
Our Domestic classes are every Friday morning 10:00 - 12:00 at our Parkview kitchen at a cost of R450 per class or R1500 for 4sessions.
