Lila Han

Buttercream Cupcake Decorating Class: Rose, Daisy, Scabiosa

This class was a perfect little girls day/birthday celebration gift for my cousin. YS was a great teacher and host, sharing her expertise, skills and tips, and making this class an enjoyable experience overall. You can see in our flowers the progression of "totally a newbie" to "getting the hang of it" Hehe! The place was very clean and organized, and we appreciated the tea party, treats and photo + more

Frankie Munoz

Pottery Class: Intro to Wheel Throwing Seize the Clay

Mason was amazing and was extremely patient and clear with his instructions. I highly recommend taking the pottery wheel class with him. I took my family here for a surprise birthday gift for my mom and she loved it.

Karen Barroso

Wheel Throwing Workshop: Fun with Clay

I got this class as a birthday gift for my friend and it was the perfect experience. Brian was a wonderful teacher and created a good environment to learn and have fun. It was both of our first times working with clay and his instructions/demos were great and he had the perfect balance of letting us experiment and guiding us when he saw we needed it. The studio was very comfortable, stylish and his + more

Riley Hewko

Wooden Cutting Board Class

This wood working class was amazing! Our teacher was so knowledgeable, helped us build confidence with machinery, and provided everything we needed! There was a perfect amount of time for us to work together (sharing the machines/discussing which materials to use) but also on our own time to just be present and focus on the beautiful task at hand! Great for new and experienced individuals. Great price + more

Kendra Willis

Pottery Class: Intro to Wheel Throwing Seize the Clay

I had a great time at the class. I booked this as a birthday present for myself and I had a great time. The instructor, Ann Marie, was really good. She was very patient and took time to explain everything we were doing thoroughly. I will definitely be booking another class in the near future.

Pottery class review by Kendra Willis - San Francisco

Jennifer Newton

Pottery Class: Intro to Wheel Throwing Seize the Clay

My partner and I took our first pottery throwing class as a gift for my birthday. Our teacher Evan was great! Not only was he a solid teacher but he was a fun human to be around and we really enjoyed our time there. We were the only two people in the class but there were other more experienced people there working as well and the whole vibe of the shop (SMAART gallery & studios in the Mission) was really fun and relaxed. We’re both left handed and Evan was able to find two of the discs that spun the opposite direction for us. We each came away + more

Aristides Diamant

Character Macaron Making Class

We booked the class as a birthday present and had a wonderful time. Jesse was very informative, well-prepared and patient. She is very detail-oriented, which is important in baking macarons! She is also extremely creative with her designs, which helped even those who are not very artistic make something truly beautiful. Jesse provided everything needed and we walked away with 12 beautiful macarons per person (4 different designs), which we packed into nice boxes and then a carry-bag as well as a detailed recipe for how to recreate them ourselves + more

Leeann Herd

Cooking Class: Dumpling Dinner Party

I received this class as a birthday gift awhile back. Finally got around to taking it and I am NOT disappointed. Eddie was a perfect host/teacher and was very encouraging throughout the process. The food was excellent too. I learned a lot and hope to come back for another class in the near future.

Lorie

Terrarium Class

We just finished a terrarium class at Botanic Panic; it was a (perfect) gift from my daughter. The class was great from start to end. The teacher (and shop owner) was so friendly, knowledgeable, helpful and fun. We ended up with great terrariums; the material's of provided were plentiful. (I tried to attach photos but kept running into problems).

Tony de La Paz

Ceramics Workshop: Create a Personalized Mug

This class was a great Mother’s Day gift experience. Jennifer was a fantastic teacher and quick explaining the basics. Everyone had a great time and really enjoyed themselves.

Apoorva Sooranahalli

Kintsugi and Wabi Sabi Workshop

Received this workshop as a birthday present from my family. The instructor was very knowledgeable and friendly. Lovely venue, all materials were provided. I loved the experience!

Kyle Doan

Concrete Lamp Workshop

My partner and I attended this class using a ClassBento gift card he got me for Christmas. We knew we wanted to do an activity that was unique and different from the typical cooking or fitness classes we typically would use this opportunity for, and this was the perfect choice! Florence and Han were so helpful and welcoming and really made things so easy for us. All of the necessary materials and supplies were provided and we felt very safe and empowered to tackle on the lamp-making. I've never done anything electrical before, so I was a bit intimidated; + more

Ilene

Cooking Class: Dumpling Dinner Party

I bought my partner a ClassBento gift card as a gift and I am so glad he chose this class for us to attend together! The instructor was so well-prepared, encouraging, clear and kind throughout the class. It was clear that he took a lot of care to design the class and give us the best experience possible by buying fresh, organic produce and meats from local markets for our shared cooking experience and meal - the quality of the food was incredible and well worth the cost of the class and the good vibes were an added bonus. We learned how to make + more

Rod Brathwaite

Cooking Class: Dumpling Dinner Party

We got this experience as a gift from my wife, and my two teens and I had an absolutely wonderful time! Eddie was the perfect host and the time just flew by with him sharing the history of the food we were making and the wonderful conversation from the other guests! We learned about how different types of soy sauces are made, and then we did a blind taste-test different soy sauces and it's amazing how they impact the deliciousness (umami) and the overall flavor of the dumplings. I couldn't believe how much we learned and I'm fully confident + more

Mollie Rowe

Design a Gold-leaf Bowl Class

The class was very fun! Carrie was very flexible with my groups schedule. I booked this as a gift for my family as a small group and it was a really excellent way to celebrate together.

Annie Marggraff

Succulent Wreath Making Workshop

I highly recommend this class and studio They provide so many quality materials to create exactly what you want to make. The ladies who own and work at the studio are so friendly and welcoming and knowledgeable. Making a succulent wreath was a fantastic gift and experience for my friend and me. I’ll be back!

Mark Stefanski

Custom Candle Making Class

I got this as a gift and so didn't attend. But I heard it was great.

Michelle Loven

Pottery Class: Intro to Wheel Throwing Seize the Clay

We both thought the class was great. We had good time to work on our own and the teacher was present for questions.

Ciandra Barber

Craft Cocktails Class

This experience was a an amazing gift from my husband. Rebecca listened to my requests and crafted a learning experience I will not soon forget. The personalized touches were thoughtful and creative. I am so grateful you have found your niche in the industry and are sharing your talents with the world. Salud!

Kim Tran

Custom Candle Making Class

This was my first ClassBento and it was a great time for me and my youth (15 yr old). Moonshot Studio is located in downtown Noe Valley so parking may be a little tricky but we just parked a little further away and walked in. Our instructor (and owner) was Teresa and she was so sweet, enthusiastic, and informative. It look about 1.5 hours for us to complete our candle-making activity, which is a bit longer than the class was supposed to take but Teresa didn't rush us at all. Once completed, Teresa asked us to either return in 90 mins to pick up + more
