Introduction to Modern Calligraphy 

Katie Johnson

A great 2 hour session as a first introduction to Calligraphy!

The packs we used were easy to follow and it was good to get a feel for 2 different examples of calligraphy pens and styles. Rhian was a great teacher and very patient giving loads of helpful tips ☺️ I went specifically to get a bit of practice ahead of writing wedding name cards and I'm feeling much more confident, thank you Kind Calligraphy!

Sarah Wyatt

Really enjoyed the afternoon learning calligraphy, also found it very relaxing will definitely try out another class 

Laura Wallace

I absolutely loved the introduction to modern calligraphy class. It was informative, relaxing and great fun. We were all provided with our own packs to go at our own pace and resources to take home and practice.

Laura Elkins

I really enjoyed this class! It was a lovely way to spend a Sunday afternoon with a few friends. Rhian helped us understand the best ways to use the pens and improve our skills! Highly recommend for anyone who is interested in learning calligraphy/ have a wedding coming up or just enjoys learning new things ! 

Charlotte Hughes

Loved it! Went with friends for my birthday, and although I was terrible at it (through no fault of the instruction), we had a great time! Lots of help on hand and guidance, excellent resources and Rhian is a brilliant instructor. Would thoroughly recommend if you're up for learning a new skill in a relaxed, friendly environment. 

Heather Short

Great fun! Lots of helpful advice and great handouts. I felt I'd achieved lots by the end of the two hours and am keen to attend another class - though I might take a cocktail with me next time!

Pauline Cunningham

I attended a kind calligraphy class  . It was fun and informative.  Rhian was a fine teacher and I came away inspired to learn more.

Jean Higgins

A really enjoyable class.  Rhian was very clear with her instruction, and the work pack was lovely.  I left the venue excited to start my own  project.

Laura Keepence

We had such a great time. Rhian was so accommodating and so helpful. 
We have never attempted to do calligraphy before, but after attending Rhian's class, we're going to do some of our own wedding stationary with the skills we've learnt! 

Tracey Brown

This was a great introduction workshop.  Highly recommend. Rhian is patient, approachable and friendly. She had prepared our learning packs in advance and even written our names in Calligraphy on the envelopes. She allowed us space to work on our own but also explained everything well snd was there to answer any questions. Thank you Rhian. I will definitely try out your other courses!
