• 5/5 from Michael Walsh, attended Feb 2025: Perfect way to spend 5 hours or so. I’ve been playing around with ceramic sculpture but needed some upskilling and refinement. I was so pleased with what I learned, the style of the class and my take home sculpture…

• 5/5 from Kym Wilson, attended Oct 2024: I loved this class! Alexander was so patient and attentive, and broke down the process of making a sculpture into bite-sized memorable pieces. The class was in a beautiful light-filled space in Workshop Melbourne in Collingwood. It was easy to find street parking on Sunday. I got to meet and learn with some other lovely students. I’d definitely do this class again. I’m looking forward to having a go at making a sculpture at home and using what I learned.

• 5/5 from Maria Williamson, attended Jul 2024: The clay sculpting class was so small so the teacher was able to provide individual attention & help everyone.

• 5/5 from Aaron Henriques, attended Mar 2024: A great session: The instructor is a talented sculptor and an excellent teacher. 5 stars, I’ll be returning for more classes.
• 5/5 from Abdul Hamoui, attended Mar 2024: Everything was great in the short course! Teacher was excellent, venue was great as well. I chose the course to open up my horizons from steel sculpture and are hoping to combine the two together. Well worth the money and hope there is an advanced course coming up.
• 5/5 from Kara Fogg, attended Jan 2024: We had such a wonderful time in the Sculpting for Beginners course today. It was a really great group and Alexander is a fantastic and very patient teacher (not to mention ridiculously skilled). It's such a lovely, calm setting too. So relaxing! All the tools and material we needed were provided and they were easy to get the hang of, even for a complete novice. The pace of the day felt just right. I loved how our sculptures evolved during the session and how easy it was to shift in a different direction. I'd love to keep sculpting and I feel confident that the class has given me the basic skills to continue at home (it's all about the sphere!). I enjoyed it so much that I might even do another ClassBento course or two along the way. I think it was excellent value and I'd highly recommend it to anyone who's been thinking of giving sculpting a go

• 5/5 from Rakhee Nair, attended Apr 2023: The venue is great, with coffee n tea and fruits. The ambience was good with a lot of materials provided for the course. Our teacher Alex was very detailed and patient in explaining us and make to give all of us individual attention.
• 5/5 from Carmen Edwards, attended Apr 2023: Such a fun workshop! Helena and the team make everyone feel so welcome and comfortable from the minute you arrive (thanks again for the coffee!) The space is full of light, plants and inspiration and there’s more than sufficient work areas, equipment and materials provided. We had a fantastic day learning various techniques from Alex and came away with a much better understanding of clay modelling. The instructions were well paced and full of interesting ideas and applications, handy tips and extra advice. We had a small friendly group that creatively challenged and encouraged each other as we all worked away on our projects. It was nice too to be able to leave with a sculpture at the end of the day. Having attended other classes with Work-Shop previously, I would not hesitate to recommend. Can’t wait for the next one!
• 5/5 from Dee Granados, attended Apr 2023: This was the first time I've done this and the class was so much fun. All the materials were provided and went home with a finished piece. Alex was a great instructor. Easy to follow instructions and he made us feel in a comfortable and safe space, judgment-free. The group was fun to work with and seeing what everyone created was inspiring too. Alex managed to look at the class as a whole but also spent time supporting individual projects. I never felt rushed to do anything and managed to complete my piece by the end of the day. The venue was full of natural light which I found important. Make sure you bring some food as shops around the area are closed on Sunday. I gained a great foundation to explore further sculpting with clay and I am looking to do this class in the future again.
• 5/5 from Anna Hedstrom, attended Feb 2023: Really nice, relaxed environment and Alex had a very clear instruction style that helped to achieve more than I thought possible. Definitley recommend this class.
• 5/5 from Cherie Ross, attended Feb 2023: A really enjoyable day with Alex. The pace was relaxing and the outcome surprisingly good! Alex’s gentle guidance had me create something I didn’t expect I would achieve in a beginners class. I now have the fundamentals to build on and as Alex said many times over … start with a sphere! And he was right (of course) it was so much easier to start every piece of the puzzle with a sphere and build something I was happy with. Cherie
• 5/5 from Andrea Riddell, attended Feb 2023: Alex was great! He was able to break down each component of the sculpture into very digestible segments. We didn’t feel rushed and had enough one-on-one attention
