What to do and see in Manchester, England: The Best Classes & Workshops

February 23, 2022 Kelli Reichel

Famed for its soccer team and music scene, which has produced the likes of the Smiths and Oasis, this center for sports and the arts is a down-to-earth and friendly city. The so-called Capital of the North has overcome industrial decline, bombing (in WWII and by the IRA) to become a confident and cosmopolitan city of well over two million. It is well served by a bus and light rail network. Top attractions include the Lowry art complex, arcade Affleck's Palace and Canal Street gay village.

What a wonderful place! As soon as we walked through the doors, the Ford Sorcery family were super warm and welcoming. The venue had taken extra precautionary steps to make sure our cooking class was COVID-friendly and I must say the few hours we were there felt like a safe little haven away from the madness. Lisa and Jason were both super friendly and made the whole experience memorable. We did the Pasta Class and came away with new skills and full bellies! We even got to bring the pasta we made home with us so we could share our new found talent with our family. We would without a doubt recommend the classes to anyone looking to brush up on their culinary skills in a friendly, welcoming environment. See you guys soon for another class!

I’ve been going to GFF since January 2016, they changed the studio twice and I keep moving with them. High skilled instructors, organized classes, great space and friendly environment is the perfect recipe to get us addicted to this family. Not only for pole, but hoops and dance classes as well :)

One to one, or one to two wood carving and sculpture workshops. A one day course held at my 16th century farm in the beautiful Peak District National Park. In a single day, learn the ancient art of relief wood carving (the foundation of sculpture in the round) and take home a completed piece of work. Only 10 minutes drive from Buxton, and 45 minutes from city center Manchester. A vegan organic lunch is also provided, along with copious amounts of tea, coffee and photos for social media.
