Welcome to
 
The Connecticut Valley School of Woodworking
 
Bob Van Dyke - Founder & Director
 
Based on the idea of “learning by doing”, we provide a wide range of hands-on woodworking classes for men and women of all skill levels.

Classes are conducted in a variety of formats to suit the unique needs of our students. They include one or two day weekend classes, series classes that meet one or two nights per week for 4 to 12 weeks, week-long intensive classes and more.

Our staff of instructors possess a wide variety of skills and interests but an intense passion for the subject they are teaching is common to them all. Whether it is a woodturning class with Al Czellecz, a furniture making class with the school’s director, Bob Van Dyke, or a class on cabriole legs with Phil Lowe, students are assured of thoroughly learning the skills in a relaxed hands-on atmosphere
