International Courses

Our wonderful and very enthusiastic Dutch master florist Petra van der Veen will amaze and inspire you in her passion for flowers, colour and design.

During this 2 days workshop Petra will show you many wonderful ideas for hand tied designs, stunning arrangements and fabulous wedding work. We had so much great feedback from the 2009 course that we booked Petra straight away to return to the school.

Petra will show you how to make inspirational yet commercial frames for both hand tied bouquets and arrangements. You will learn how to create handtied designs using spiral & parallel techniques.

All Petra's bouquets and arrangements have that special Dutch twist to them.

Petra's wedding work was especially well received last year. All of the florists on the course loved the designs that were created as they were inspirational and yet highly saleable.

On each day you will make 3 designs to take away with you (6 in total over the two days)

Our wonderful Spanish Master florist is one of those guys that just has so much knowledge and creativity. His courses are packed with design, technique and inspiration; he just gives you idea after idea.
On this two day workshop you will be amazed at how Carles can make a truly wonderful design from just a few choice flowers and a frame.

Our 2009 workshop was a complete sell out so make sure you book early! The strength of appreciation of the class was such that we secured the talents of Carles again for 2010. You may also have seen him at our workshops at the British Florist Association trade show in Birmingham in Oct 2009.

Carles will show you designer hand tied designs, stylish and inspired arrangements, stunning planted designs along with his unique style of wedding work featured in Fusion Flowers Wedding Magazine 2008...

This is a chance to learn from a wonderful florist, whose great teaching manner and design skills have taken him all over Europe. One each day of this 2-day course you will make 3 designs to take away (6 in total)

We welcome back to the school Interflora World Champion David Denyer. David's wonderful manner, exceptional floristry skills and his humour and whit made his 2009 workshop great fun. His great ideas showcase his skills in design together with exception use of colour. There is no doubt as to why he was crowned 'best in the World'. What helps to make David's workshops so fantastic is that he is a retail florist working in the industry on a day-to-day basis as a shop manager for a busy high street flower shop. He knows only to well all the difficulties working florists face dealing with customers, budgets and commercial floristry constraints. However he is able to inspire every class with wonderful designer floristry that you can sell. Over the 3-day course David will do a one-day funeral workshop, followed by two days making Hand tied bouquets, arrangements and wedding work. On each of the days you will make and take home 3 designs per day.
