Taster day - Become a Florist for a Day – Professional Floristry Taster Experience

Monday 23rd March 2026 10am - 4pm
Have you ever wondered what it would really feel like to become a florist?

Not just arranging flowers at home — but training properly…

Understanding technique…

Working with professional materials…

and discovering whether floristry could become more than a hobby?

This immersive one-day experience is designed for anyone considering a career in floristry — or simply longing to explore their creativity in a professional studio environment.

This is your opportunity to step inside the Academy and try it for real.

What You’ll Experience

During the day you will:

  • Learn the foundations of professional floristry technique

  • Understand spiral hand-tied bouquet construction

  • Create a seasonal buttonhole with correct wiring methods

  • Design a balanced table arrangement with professional mechanics

  • All designs are demonstrated step-by-step by our experienced tutors before you create your own.

You’ll leave with:

  • A professionally finished hand-tied bouquet

  • A buttonhole

  • A table arrangement

  • New skills

  • Honest insight into the realities of training and working as a florist

    And perhaps… clarity.
