Fascinating learning experience in a lovely environment
We did a Celtic Knot workshop with Vigour and Skills in March 2026. It was a fantastic experience. The workshop is in rural Oxfordshire, but very accessible, and is a warm and welcoming creative space. Warning: next door to the workshop is a crafts shop with lots and lots of beautiful things, so bring your credit card!
There were 9 lovely people in our session - one more than usual - but we all had plenty of space and were all given personal attention as needed from Laurence, our tutor. All equipment was provided and at the end of the day we had our work to take home as a memento of the day. To be honest, mine turned out so much better than I had expected, friends and family can now all expect to receive a hand-made celtic knot rope placemat for Christmas this year...
Overall, it was a brilliant experience, and I'm looking forward to discovering what else I can learn at Vigour and Skills in the future.

Handmade ceramic bowl…
I purchased a hand made ceramic bowl which is absolutely perfect. I love it. I was pleasantly surprised at how quickly my purchase arrived considering it was from out of the Country. I've purchased from Vigour and Skills before and have always been pleased and I highly recommend them!

Lovely welcome
Lovely welcome, an excellent tutor and a friendly group. Relaxed workshop when I felt we gained valuable tips, hints and experience.
Only downside was that there was very little heating in the workshop on a very cold day.

Thank you so much for your lovely review, we are really happy to hear you enjoyed the welcome, the tutor and the atmosphere of the workshop.
Just to clarify for anyone reading, the studio was heated on the day, but we completely understand that everyone feels temperature differently. We always encourage guests to let us know during the session if they’d like the room a bit warmer, we are more than happy to adjust things on the spot.
We hope to see you again soon for another workshop.
Friendly, Relaxed
Friendly, non intimidating environment for a total novice. Our tutor Natalie was kind and patient and the other attendees very friendly. Gorgeous coffee supplied by Clement😃

Excellent workshop
We had a really great experience at Vigour & Skills with Rachel making clay Christmas decorations. Very relaxed and calm. I can’t wait to see the final fired ornaments. The venue is such a lovely space. I would definitely do another course here and would recommend.
