The course instructor was super nice, in a very good mood, very experienced and was able to share lots of ideas and suggestions. He took care of additional material or tools, even though they were not intended for the course for the time being. It was just a lot of fun and we would highly recommend Eik's course!

I was able to look at a whole series of sample photos and therefore decide what I would like to do. I was also able to share my wishes and add my own original elements.

It was super fun. I was a complete beginner and had never worked with wood before, but it worked really well and I am very happy with my heart wooden bowl that I created during the workshop. The workshop leader Eik is also super nice and helpful. The troupe today was great too. Would highly recommend the course!!!

The course was a lot of fun and is suitable for both adults and young people. The instructor is great and is always available with advice and assistance. When “working”, you can wonderfully forget everyday life and really get in the mood for more craft projects again. Great recommendation!! 👍👍👍

A nice course for beginners. The atmosphere was relaxed and Eik was very helpful. It wasn't a real course because everyone ended up working for themselves and depending on what you're doing, you get a few tips. I can only recommend it.

I was able to process a small bowl in 4 hours, but I had imagined something else under a carving class. A detailed explanation of the various tools with practical examples, if applicable. I personally worked more with a hammer and chisel that day. I thought that was a bit of a shame. Perhaps I would book such a course again, unfortunately this one has not helped me personally. I've already done that at home with the help of YouTube videos

The workshop is a great opportunity to simply work with wood. You can't hope for masterpieces in 4 hours, but Eik is wonderfully motivated and ready to help.
