Teaching style

Both the retreat and the workshops courses are a combination of online learning and a week at the School, which will be an opportunity to watch, learn, listen to the lectures and connect to both the dough and the process in a relaxed style of participative demonstrations.

Before you attend The Sourdough School the process of learning to making your own sourdough loaves takes place at home, and is be supported throughout on our interactive online forum.

We also have silent parts to the courses.
