NOTE: Due to the pandemic we were forced to cancel the Group Workshops. We now offer 1-on-1 Private Instruction only.

We are moving forward with a new program format for the future by offering the same quality "Introduction to Shoemaking" Workshop as a 1-on-1 experience. You can come with a friend and make it a 2 person program.

The basic workshop is a 3 Day Program with an Optional 1 Day available to review and expand the subject matter in more depth. It also provides an opporuntity for personal mentorship and consulting on a wide variety of issues, including Business Development for going forward.

Since the workshop is only available for 1 or 2 people it can be scheduled at any mutually convenient time.

Business Consulting is available any time by appointment. Contact us for further details... 360.385.6164 Pacific TIme.
