• 5/5 from Callum West, attended Apr 2026: Would highly reccomend! Had a class today, 6 of us of all different ages and backgrounds who fancied whacking some metal with a hammer. Our instructor Hugo showed us how there is also a lot more to the trade with great explanations of how to work steel in the best way possible and also showing us how far the artform can go. Not strenuous work or too hot and sweaty either to produce a decent-enough result so anyone can give it a go.

• 5/5 from Luke Lee, attended Nov 2024: Absolutely amazing class and session. We had organised a blacksmithing class for a bucks party with 14 people which is no simple task but Steve was a great instructor and was very accommodating to our group. He is also a great instructor and kept the lesson very interactive. Such a unique experience and the groom couldn't have been more pleased. Thanks once again to Steve and the team for a great day.
• 5/5 from Kylie Carville, attended Oct 2024: Took my partner to the intro course for his birthday. It was a surprise and as soon as we pulled up he was so excited! It was really interesting, and it's pretty amazing to find yourself bending metal!! Steve is very passionate and his doggo is gorgeous and the space was very cool. Definitely worth a go!
• 5/5 from Abbey Noonan, attended Aug 2024: This class was so great!! Went with my husband and we had no idea what to expect, and but we had an absolute ball. The teachers were amazing - so welcoming, patient and fun to be around, and clearly very passionate about blacksmithing. Loved the space too. They also went around and took photos of the class which were sent to us the following day. Such a great memento. Would absolutely recommend this class!!
• 5/5 from Loretta Richmond, attended May 2024: So good no notes. such a good time. Steve is so clear with instructions. Well worth the money
• 5/5 from Lena Xiao, attended Apr 2024: Loved it! Steve is super friendly, encouraging, and has fascinating stories to tell. The studio is located on the riverbank with a stunning view. Steve designed the workshop in a way that is very achievable in 2hrs for first timers. If Steve offers more casual classes, I'm definitely eager to check them out. Not to mention the cutest and goodest boi Harry keeping us company the whole time
• 5/5 from Russell Walley, attended Apr 2024: Thoroughly enjoyed our time with Steve, made a very functional steel piece within the time and didn't feel rushed but our whole group still finished right on time. Very well equipped studio.
