I enjoyed the Floral Design course Michael Gaffney held in Boston on June of 2021, and I was proud to receive my Certificate after finishing. He made the classes pleasant and fun. What he said was always helpful in answering any questions. Also, he offered to answer any questions after we completed the course. At some point, I had some unanticipated questions that did come up. He answered these quickly, and his responses were very helpful at the time. Since June of 2021 I'm enjoying making beautiful arrangements by continuing to apply what I've learned in his classes and by referring to his three books and videos. Because I believe he's a great teacher, I have had no hesitation in recommending his courses in the past and will have no problems in recommending them in the future.
The experience of taking classes with Michael Gaffney is worth every penny. The attention he gives you and his ability to teach design make his classes above and beyond what anyone else can offer. You are learning from one the best in the business and he passes on his knowledge to you in a format that is hands on and understandable . I have learned so much from Michael. He has given me the skills I need to make beautiful arrangements for any occasion. He makes learning fun and enjoyable.
I took a one day class with Michael and had a wonderful time. He made arranging the bouquets very easy by explaining it step by step even though it was my first time ever. I’d definitely take more classes from him when he is in LA. He is a gifted artist!
Micheal’s classes made floral design easy to learn. He was approachable and gave us great techniques to have our arrangements look good every time and with reasonable timing. He also taught us how to preserve them longer. I enjoyed his classes and do all kinds of arrangements as gifts for others, for big parties and my own dinner parties. I feel the possibilities are endless!
After being an Interior Designer for over 15 years I decided to follow a life long dream of opening up my own florist! Putting the cart before the horse I rented a place with absolutely no knowledge of how or where to begin. I can across a seminar that Michael was having in Boston MA and though this would be a great place to start. I barely knew the names of flowers or what to do with them but his amazing teaching skills and the love he had for what he did made me know this was what I wanted to do. The day after I finished my training I opened my own shop. Five and a half years later I have 6 employees, 233 five star review on google and was named Best of Weddings on the Knot and Couples Choice on Wedding Wire 2023. This was all doable because of the great experience I had taking Michael’s Classes!! He is a true gem! Thanks
As a beginner without much experience, Michael's class was so informative. He is a no nonsense teacher and we got straight to work. The information and practice that I received from Michael was invaluable as a budding floral designer. I am looking forward to my next class with him.
I took Michael’s course when he had his school in Los Angeles. It was absolutely one of the best decisions I ever made. I love his style of teaching. He was real, down to earth, and I loved how he focused on the basic technical aspect of floral design. Whether youre just starting off as a floral designer or are a seasoned one, you cannot go wrong taking his classes. Thank you Michael for everything you taught me!
