The classes are designed for women over the age of 18, however we will gladly register young women, 16 or 17 years old, with a parent or guardian willing to sign a liability waiver and who will attend the class with someone 18 years old or older (the adult attending the class with the young woman does NOT need to be her parent or guardian). If you have a group of young women below the age of 16 that you think would benefit from any of our classes please contact us at questions@workshopforwomen.com or 303-284-6354 to discuss
special arrangements.

Of course they can. Although we don’t market our classes directly to men, the class content is of general interest. The class content and classroom environment were specifically designed to appeal to women. We are well aware of the fact that men could use this type of instruction and welcome them into our classes.

The atmosphere and environment is welcoming and comfortable and have been designed to appeal to women. Our class curriculum was created knowing that some, if not most, women have had little or no exposure to some of the very basic skills necessary for tackling home improvement tasks. We assume you come to class with no experience. We treat every student with respect, knowing that there is no such thing as a ‘stupid’ question and that no matter how little or how much you know there is always an opportunity to learn. We encourage students to share their personal knowledge and experience with each other.

Class size can vary from 1 to 6. Class size is limited to no more than 6 students.

Our class size is limited to ensure the best experience for each student. The small class size allows for plenty of time for hands-on practice and allows the facilitator to give more personalized instruction. If you have a group of more than 6 that would like to attend a class together, please contact us at
suggestions@workshopforwomen.com or 303-284-6354 to discuss
special arrangements.
