Private lessons are a great option for individuals or small groups who want personalized instruction or who missed out on a sold-out badge class. Whether you’re looking to gain tool access, learn a specific skill, or get dedicated support on a project, private lessons offer a flexible, one-on-one learning experience.
Private Classes (1 – 5 people):
- Private lessons cost of the equivalent class cost per person plus a $100 admin fee.
- Scheduling is subject to instructor availability, and while we’ll do our best to accommodate your request, we cannot guarantee an instructor will be available.
- Completing a private lesson can (but might not) count as a badge class equivalent, granting access to the relevant studio (as long as the lesson covers the full safety and usage curriculum).
We offer private lessons across many of our studios, including woodworking, metalworking, blacksmithing, ceramics, CNC, laser cutting, 3D printing, sewing, casting, and more. Whether you’re looking to earn a badge, deepen your skills in a particular area, or get one-on-one help with a specific project, we’ll match you with an instructor who can help guide your learning.
