About our Beginning Woodworking Classes

MAKE SOMETHING

Most of us no longer get the chance to create something from scratch that will last the test of time. And there’s something about starting with a piece of bare wood and making something beautiful and useful that you just have to experience. Woodworking classes at the Florida School of Woodwork are the place to do just that.

Our furniture making, woodturning, and wood carving classes are located in a beautiful, light-filled workshop in a newly renovated industrial building from the 1920s. Right at the meeting spot of Tampa’s RiverWalk district and Historic Seminole Heights.

Our instructors are amazing woodworkers, turners, and carvers with real-world experience. You will get individual attention and hours of hands-on experience. No matter your current knowledge, abilities, and goals, you will find a class for you here. Classes focus on both project and technical development in all of the disciplines of woodworking – furniture making, lathe, and carving skills, in a well organized, safe, and friendly environment.
