Classes/Workshops
We schedule out anywhere from 1 month to 3 months in advance. To see our current offerings of classes please see below. As a side note, not all classes will be offered every month that are listed. If you see a class that is not being offered please reach out and we can discuss the class and options to make it available to you.
Current class offerings for the month are available to see on the Store page. More classes are being developed so keep an eye out for what’s to come.
You must pre-register to attend a class. We do suggest looking at our cancellation policies before purchasing.
Everyone who attends a class or workshop must sign a release form in person. If you are under 18, then a parent or guardian must sign for you before you will be permitted to participate. Please discuss with Woman And Machine before signing up a minor for class.
**Steel prices are increasing and as such some of the welding class prices will be increasing as well. We try to keep them as affordable as possible but do understand times have been tough recently. Feel free to reach out if you are interested in a class to see if a payment option could be made available. We hope you can understand our need to increase prices.
