Is there a waiting list for the courses?

 

We limit the number of students on our in-person courses to between 4 and 6.

This is so we can ensure there is time for each student to get some individual attention, and we can tailor the tuition to the interests of a small group. But it does mean that some classes get booked up very quickly, and not everyone can get a place on the course they want. We do keep a waiting list for courses once they are fully booked but, to be honest, we find that students rarely drop out once they have booked.

If you have tried to book a particular course but have found that it is already full, there are a number of options you might like to consider…

Firstly, you can add your name to the waiting list by emailing [email protected], stating your name and the course you are interested in.

Alternatively, you might like to join The Sourdough Club. This gives you access to step-by-step lessons, including videos, and a lot of sourdough-related information. Membership of The Sourdough Club brings you into our international community of sourdough bakers, and allows you to learn in your own kitchen at a pace that suits you.
