"Highly recommended. All hands on class that allows you to learn step by step. The class’s are kept small so you get individual attention. I was amazed at the quality of screen printing that I learned."
"Fantastic experience. Just participated in basic screenprinting classes - great knowledge, expertise and content. I would highly recommend to anyone starting a business or those looking to improve their business.."
"He provided the class with valuable hands on training and first hand knowledge that may have taken years to acquire. Definitely shortened my learning curve and increase my money making potential."
"Awesome teacher! Awesome experience! I had been indecisive about taking a classroom
experience for months (didn’t want to spend the money). But it am so glad I did, and even more grateful that I decided on Kolor Matrix. I came in knowing some of the basics. I left with actual hands on experience. Must say so myself, i did excellent “my print work attached” (guess it was instructor Brian) 😁. I fell very confident and ready to start printing at home."
