England · WORKSHOPS IN LONDON
The 11 workshops in London below are the ones to put on a first English itinerary, each with what it costs, how long it takes and who it suits. Start at the top.
Make traditional British scones in London’s West End, then enjoy them with clotted cream, jam, and tea in a small, friendly workshop.
“Everything was prepared and ready for us to mix and bake and they tasted delicious and it made plenty of scones”
Explore East London street art, learn spray painting and stencil skills, and create your own artwork in this lively three-hour London tour.
“It was very interesting to hear the history and styles of street art. We also did the hands on spray painting and enjoyed have the opportunity to create.”
Explore Shoreditch street art, then make your own stencil art in a small-group spray painting workshop in East London.
“Fantastic tour and hands on experience! Thank you Josh for such an engaging and enjoyable experience!!!”
Make Chinese dumplings from scratch in a private London home class, with tea, three fillings, cultural insight, dinner, leftovers, and recipes.
“Pan was very sweet and we had a great time learning about the dumpling origin. The dumplings were very delicious!🥟😍 We would highly recommend.”
Learn beatmatching, phrasing, EQ, and harmonic mixing in a private two-hour DJ class on Pioneer decks in central London.
“A fantastic experience to learn more about the Dj scene and get nitty/gritty with some equipment. I was made to feel very comfortable with the high-end software and technology you're exposed to on this 1:1 course. Highly recommend!!”
Decorate seasonal biscuits near Kew Gardens with patient teacher Erika, practical icing techniques, recipes, and a tasty souvenir.
“We had a fabulous class and as you can see we managed to create some beautifully creative pieces from this class. Such an fun and lovely session!”
Learn street photography with Ed Fil on a small-group London walk covering London Bridge, the City, Tate Modern, and Tower Bridge.
“I spent an afternoon with Ed Fil showing me some great spots for street photography. Along the way he introduced me some new techniques and refined some of the techniques I was already familiar with. One of the most fun practices was combining street and travel photography to create images that capture the vibe of the city. For example, placing an iconic landmark, such as Tower Bridge, in the background and interesting people in the foreground. This created images that remind me where I was, London, and capture the colour and energy of the location at the same time. Thanks for a great afternoon of shooting Ed.”
Make chocolate in Notting Hill with Melt’s three-hour masterclass, from cocoa bean to bonbons, bars, ganache, and praline.
“AMAZING!!! Everything was perfect. Do not miss out. We ended up with more amazing chocolate than I could have imagined. They were perfect gifts. Do not hesitate to book.”
Master your camera on a four-hour London photo walk with personal tuition, tiny groups, and iconic views of Tower Bridge and the Tower.
“The perfect course for me, I’m one of those who have been stuck on ‘auto and scene’ modes for years. This course really showed me what can be achieved with just a little bit of knowledge. Lou took the time and care to explain the basics to everyone in the group without us getting out of our depth.”
Learn to cook South Indian dishes in Jemima’s Orpington home, then share a private meal with family, drinks, and personal guidance.
“We did not know what to expect, and we were very pleasantly surprised by how much we loved all of the dishes Jemina prepared for us. We wish we could have taken our leftovers home to the US but it’s not practical. Our conversation with Aaron and Jemina was delightful as well. We will book again if/when we make it back to the London area again.”
Improve your street photography in London with Cyrus and Marc through hands-on shooting, critiques, composition lessons, and Fleet Street walks.
“I found the street photography materials shared by Cyrus and Marc to be informative and interesting. It’s a series of content on the history, and techniques for street photography including some live (friendly :)) critiques of attendees work. There is also time to go out and shoot during the workshop to help cement some of the learnings. Would recommend for any beginner to intermediate looking to get into, or crystallise some of their learnings in street photography”
