To everyone who has visited us and participated in our classes at 5 Rutland St, Big Boom, the Old Soldiers and Sailors Mill:
We say a HUGE thank you!
We have met such amazing and talented people over the last 3 years and I look forward to continuing classes at our studio in Highton from August.

Until then, please pop in and say hi! 👋 We’ll have some special sales in store before we leave, and we’d love to see you before we go 🤎
