The classes are always very welcoming and very well organised. It's all brilliant. Annabelle is excellent, always explains everything clearly and makes it easy to follow - even if you haven't done anything like it before. The course notes are very useful, especially when you re-visit something later.

Annabelle is an incredible tutor. Her knowledge is endless, as is her patience. Flower courses test my skills but I find them relaxing and therapeutic. A lovely course - a big thank you for a lovely relaxing evening.

It always amazes me no matter how many courses I do (I've been coming for years) I always come away with more skills, hints and tips. Annabelle was brilliant as always.
