Judith Blacklock Flower School

I have just completed the new one day course on growing flowers and greenery; in your garden; for use in floristry . The course was fantastic ! I learned hands on skills for horticulture from true experts in their fields. I made some great new friends and created my first hand tied bouquet which I took home to my delighted girlfriend ! Thank you

I attended Judith's intense 2-week 'Professional Business of Floristry' course last Autumn and it was a truly life-changing couple of weeks! I'd been trading as a Florist for just a couple of months prior to attending the school having had no formal training (only practical work experience) and I found my confidence had taken a complete nose-dive and I'd started to question the sanity of what I was doing! I sat down one Thursday afternoon and typed some generic key words into the search bar to see what courses it might throw up. As a resident of Northern Ireland, I'd (perhaps too optimistically) hoped there'd be a suitable fast-track course available nearby but alas, it was not to be! Judith's school was one of the first search results I clicked on and to be honest, within about a half an hour of reading the information on her website, I'd made up my mind that this was the school I wanted to train with. I called up the school and spoke to the kindest lady; her name was Julia, who informed me there were still places on the course starting the following Monday. I took it as a sign, fate if you like, and said 'I'll take it!'. I booked a flight and headed across the water, stayed with a friend and attended what was to be the most amazing 2 weeks ever. The teaching was world class. We had so many different tutors over the course of the 2 weeks, from the GM of Mark Jacobs' London store who taught a session on visual merchandising to one of the most renowned floristry business minds in the US, who Judith flew over especially. We got real variety - theory, group work, flower demonstrations and probably the most useful, the many practical sessions we had on learning the techniques necessary to be an exceptional florist. Each day, we received guidance from Judith and her team on photographing our works for our portfolio and we were given special bags to ensure the safe transportation of our arrangements home. The whole thing was sensational. I don't have the words to express just how beneficial the whole experience was. The best money I ever spent - hands down! And to top it off, the ladies I trained with created a Whatsapp group to keep in touch and we all have done - it's been a great support to us all as we each embark on our own journey of self-employment in the floristry industry. Superb!! :)

I just finished a business of floristry course at the Judith Blacklock flower school. I feel this course helped me gain a wide knowledge of floristry techniques and also a wide knowledge of costing, pricing, marketing and All other aspects of floristry as a industry. Can't recommend enough
