Lily Larsen




Got this class as a gift for my mom for her birthday and she absolutely loved it, and so did I! The teacher was amazing and extremely helpful. You have so much creative freedom in how you want to arrange your terrarium and what you want to put in it. Well worth the time and money spent, such a fun experience :)

Frankie Munoz




Mason was amazing and was extremely patient and clear with his instructions. I highly recommend taking the pottery wheel class with him. I took my family here for a surprise birthday gift for my mom and she loved it.

Pottery Class: Intro to Wheel Throwing Seize the Clay review by Frankie Munoz - San Francisco


Karen Barroso




I got this class as a birthday gift for my friend and it was the perfect experience. Brian was a wonderful teacher and created a good environment to learn and have fun. It was both of our first times working with clay and his instructions/demos were great and he had the perfect balance of letting us experiment and guiding us when he saw we needed it. The studio was very comfortable, stylish and his  + more

Wheel Throwing Workshop: Fun with Clay review by Karen Barroso - San Francisco


Riley Hewko




This wood working class was amazing! Our teacher was so knowledgeable, helped us build confidence with machinery, and provided everything we needed! There was a perfect amount of time for us to work together (sharing the machines/discussing which materials to use) but also on our own time to just be present and focus on the beautiful task at hand! Great for new and experienced individuals. Great price  + more

Wooden Cutting Board Class review by Riley Hewko - San Francisco


Yogesh Virkar




Gave this as a gift for my wife on her birthday. The experience started with the teacher providing a short demo to explain the basics. This was very helpful. He was very patient and explained every step in great depth. He provided hands-on help only when needed and ensured that we get to try all the techniques. This was one of the best learning experiences for us! My wife thoroughly enjoyed, highly recommend this class!


Maria Vidal-Manou




Booked the class as a gift for my mom and she loved it! She said Victor was very nice and helpful and that she would do it again:)


Jennifer Newton




My partner and I took our first pottery throwing class as a gift for my birthday. Our teacher Evan was great! Not only was he a solid teacher but he was a fun human to be around and we really enjoyed our time there. We were the only two people in the class but there were other more experienced people there working as well and the whole vibe of the shop (SMAART gallery & studios in the Mission) was really fun and relaxed. We’re both left handed and Evan was able to find two of the discs that spun the opposite direction for us. We each came away  + more


Aristides Diamant




We booked the class as a birthday present and had a wonderful time. Jesse was very informative, well-prepared and patient. She is very detail-oriented, which is important in baking macarons! She is also extremely creative with her designs, which helped even those who are not very artistic make something truly beautiful. Jesse provided everything needed and we walked away with 12 beautiful macarons per person (4 different designs), which we packed into nice boxes and then a carry-bag as well as a detailed recipe for how to recreate them ourselves  + more


Leeann Herd




I received this class as a birthday gift awhile back. Finally got around to taking it and I am NOT disappointed. Eddie was a perfect host/teacher and was very encouraging throughout the process. The food was excellent too. I learned a lot and hope to come back for another class in the near future.


Lorie




We just finished a terrarium class at Botanic Panic; it was a (perfect) gift from my daughter. The class was great from start to end. The teacher (and shop owner) was so friendly, knowledgeable, helpful and fun. We ended up with great terrariums; the material's of provided were plentiful. (I tried to attach photos but kept running into problems).


Tony de La Paz




This class was a great Mother’s Day gift experience. Jennifer was a fantastic teacher and quick explaining the basics. Everyone had a great time and really enjoyed themselves.


Kyle Doan




My partner and I attended this class using a ClassBento gift card he got me for Christmas. We knew we wanted to do an activity that was unique and different from the typical cooking or fitness classes we typically would use this opportunity for, and this was the perfect choice! Florence and Han were so helpful and welcoming and really made things so easy for us. All of the necessary materials and supplies were provided and we felt very safe and empowered to tackle on the lamp-making. I've never done anything electrical before, so I was a bit intimidated;  + more


Ilene




I bought my partner a ClassBento gift card as a gift and I am so glad he chose this class for us to attend together! The instructor was so well-prepared, encouraging, clear and kind throughout the class. It was clear that he took a lot of care to design the class and give us the best experience possible by buying fresh, organic produce and meats from local markets for our shared cooking experience and meal - the quality of the food was incredible and well worth the cost of the class and the good vibes were an added bonus. We learned how to make  + more


Rod Brathwaite




We got this experience as a gift from my wife, and my two teens and I had an absolutely wonderful time! Eddie was the perfect host and the time just flew by with him sharing the history of the food we were making and the wonderful conversation from the other guests! We learned about how different types of soy sauces are made, and then we did a blind taste-test different soy sauces and it's amazing how they impact the deliciousness (umami) and the overall flavor of the dumplings. I couldn't believe how much we learned and I'm fully confident  + more


Mollie Rowe




The class was very fun! Carrie was very flexible with my groups schedule. I booked this as a gift for my family as a small group and it was a really excellent way to celebrate together.


Annie Marggraff




I highly recommend this class and studio They provide so many quality materials to create exactly what you want to make. The ladies who own and work at the studio are so friendly and welcoming and knowledgeable. Making a succulent wreath was a fantastic gift and experience for my friend and me. I’ll be back!


Mark Stefanski




I got this as a gift and so didn't attend. But I heard it was great.


Michelle Loven




We both thought the class was great. We had good time to work on our own and the teacher was present for questions.


Ciandra Barber




This experience was a an amazing gift from my husband. Rebecca listened to my requests and crafted a learning experience I will not soon forget. The personalized touches were thoughtful and creative. I am so grateful you have found your niche in the industry and are sharing your talents with the world. Salud!


Kim Tran




This was my first ClassBento and it was a great time for me and my youth (15 yr old). Moonshot Studio is located in downtown Noe Valley so parking may be a little tricky but we just parked a little further away and walked in. Our instructor (and owner) was Teresa and she was so sweet, enthusiastic, and informative. It look about 1.5 hours for us to complete our candle-making activity, which is a bit longer than the class was supposed to take but Teresa didn't rush us at all. Once completed, Teresa asked us to either return in 90 mins to pick up  + more
