What's included

4 live meetings
3 hrs 20 mins in-class hours
Homework
2-4 hours per week. Every design should be practiced until memorized. It's easy to learn a balloon and later forget how it was done. You should immediately write down new twists you've learned so you won't forget them.
Assessment
Popping balloons will not phase you. You'll have balloon basics down.

Class Experience

In this 8 day intensive course we will learn everything you need to know to go and do a party or entertain your family and friends. 
This class is an extended version of my balloon camp so you will not need to attend both. Students who go through this course can go into my ongoing class and will be able to join in at any point. 

Whether you want to learn for fun or you want to start a business or side hustle this class will be a great place to start. My classes are meant for kids who are serious about learning new skills they can then use. 
Class 1: Let's get popping. I mean pumping. I mean twisting. Actually, I mean all of that. Lesson 1 is learn to pump and knot balloons and then coping with popping them and fixing them. We will learn basic terminology and basic twists. Today's balloon: A dog. If there is time we will do a flower as well.  
Class 2: Snakes, mice, snakes eating mice. Decorating your designs
Class 3: Balloon swords: broadsword, scimitar, bow and arrow
Class 4: Balloon hats and bracelets lady bug, turtle, Viking hats, helmet and jester's hat.
Learning Goals
Students will be able to amuse and entertain family, friends, and if they want to start a business making money. Entertain at parties or small scale events.

Other Details

Parental Guidance
Most balloon twisting balloons are made with latex. Kids with sound sensitivities should be aware that twisting is squeeky and poppy. You will also need a tolerance for balloon noises.
Supply List
I would recommend going to Amazon asap and ordering a 100-250 pack of Qualatex 260 mixed color balloons. 

You will also need a qualatex balloon hand pump. We recommend that you purchase Qualatex (Green) balloon pump on amazon
You will need 260 balloon twisting balloons (we recommend a mixed color bag from Qualatex as well).
