Come and immerse yourself in the fascinating art of woodturning, and enjoy a unique experience combining discovery, technique and creativity. Jacques accompanies you step by step to explore the gestures and secrets of this traditional craft.

Sessions are personalized and adapted to your pace, your desires and your dexterity, to enable you to progress in a warm and caring environment.

Workshop schedule (3h to 6h) :

• Warm welcome, presentation of the workshop, tools and Jacques' course.
• Discussion of your desires and choice of project. Discovery of essential techniques: preparation, profiling, hollowing...
• Practice on a "martyr" piece to build your confidence.
• Production and finishing of your personalized creation.

Several formulas are available:

• Initiation (3h): Discover the basics, get to grips with the tools and create a simple object (bowl, candlestick...).
• Complete training (6h): Advanced techniques (deep hollowing, closed forms, texturing...) and production of a more elaborate piece.

Safety is at the heart of our approach. You'll be provided with full protective equipment and personalized guidance so you can work with complete confidence. We recommend that you take the meal option, so that you can enjoy the activity to the full, and share the passion and know-how of Jacques, your artisan turner.
