Anyone can join us!
Learn to carve at your own pace

Woodcarving is very gentle.
No wonder our lessons are often chosen as a path to injury recovery!

Whether you are looking for therapeutic benefits or simply a new creative hobby, you’re invited.
Learn to woodcarve!
Enrol for as short or as long as you like! Anyone can learn the skills and there is no rush. Right from your first lesson, you will learn skills that will inspire new self-confidence and pleasure.
SA Woodcarving invites you to join one of our flexible weekly class times now.
It’s a very relaxed, easygoing environment and non-pushy… You can move ahead at a pace to suit your own style. Some of our students are recovering from workplace injuries and find Woodcarving to be a great therapy. Other students are not injured and range from school students to working parents, to retirees. As you can see, whatever you currently do is irrelevant. If you are keen to learn woodcarving, you are welcome to join a class!

Learn more about Woodcarving as Occupational Therapy
Therapists often marvel at the results achieved by their patients, often just weeks after enrolment in one of our classes. We are not so surprised. After all, learning to woodcarve at our academy is ultra-relaxing. At the same time, students will develop their motor skills, self-confidence and self-esteem. All at their own pace. See why more Therapists are choosing this pursuit for great rehabilitation results…

Or simply join a class for the rewarding pleasure!
Some students are 12 years old. Others are 80 plus! Some students want to create a rocking horse, just like Grandpa made. Others want to create figurines, plaques or even furniture. The only limit is your imagination. Choose from a variety of convenient weekly class times.
Learn an ever increasing arsenal of skills that will soon have you creating truly rewarding pieces.
Course fees are no more than $35 per class*; and by booking in advance, can be as little as just $25 per class. See more…
