“I loved the thoroughness of information ranging from the smallest details of our tools, to best safety practices, planning, efficiency, technique options and the broader understanding of materials and applications. The instructors were amazing, it was informative, and easy to follow.”

“There was no judgement in this group, which I think I would’ve felt in a mixed environment. The instructor and assistant were so knowledgeable, engaging, used multiple methods for different learning types, and the vibe was amazing.”

“The teachers were exceptional at: breaking down learning into small pieces, demonstrating each step, using real world examples and metaphors, and demonstrating learning from mistakes. Plus I LOVED meeting everyone and watching their many lightbulb moments over two days. Life-changingly amazing.”

“I have spent lots of time learning in male-dominated spaces. I wanted to see how it might be different to learn from and with a group of women. Best environment ever.”

“I finally felt comfortable learning carpentry and much more comfortable using power tools. It felt wonderful to connect with other women like me”

“Men have often made me feel like using any power tool is a life threatening undertaking. I am no longer terrified of table saws!”
