Testimonials

  • "The instruction was great. I am a kinesthetic learner. I learn by doing, so the manner in which each step was shown first, then I was allowed to apply it really helped. Your thorough understanding of the possible mishaps eased any potential pitfalls for first timers. The pace was even throughout the lesson. Your kind demeanor, soft correction and positive commentary encouraged me to be comfortable with pasta making. Thank you, Jolynn! I intend to return."

  • "Fascinating to work the process from beginning to end with segments of additional device and alternatives presented. Much more helpful to have individual feedback compared to a book or video."

  • "I most enjoyed the communal nature of the class. I'm not sure that I had any specific expectations, but I guess I was surprised by the gentle, supportive instruction--maybe I was not that confident before coming and thought I'd make more mistakes. I'm glad that any correction was made with a soft voice. Thank you!"

"I love the different rolling techniques and the hands on training." - Leslie

"The idea of the class is perfect for learning how to make a lovely meal. You work, knead, roll and talk; work knead, roll and laugh and the intimacy of the storytelling and woman talk adds to the love and happiness you roll into the dough. The teacher was patient, and helpful. She was also a tactile teacher, instructing us in the feel of the movements as we rolled and cut the dough. I didn't know what to expect. The teacher is a gentle woman so I knew the class would have a gentle, accepting atmosphere. I wouldn't change a thing -- it is the perfect atmosphere for learning and loving food and cooking." - Betsy
