Beginner Blacksmithing Class

Beginner Blacksmithing Class 🔥

Have you ever wanted to learn the art of blacksmithing?

Join Warriors Way for a hands-on beginner class where you'll learn the fundamentals of working hot steel in a safe, welcoming environment. No experience is necessary—our instructors will guide you through each step of the process as you create a Frederick's Cross.

FREE for Everyone!

This is a free community class open to anyone who registers in advance. Thanks to the generosity of our donors and community partners, there is no cost to attend.

This is one of our larger group classes. Each participant will have the opportunity to forge their own Frederick's Cross with one-on-one instruction at the forge. The hands-on forging portion typically takes about 5 minutes per participant, while the remainder of the class is spent learning, observing demonstrations, and supporting one another throughout the experience.

Please Note: While the class is scheduled from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM, the individual forging portion of your Frederick's Cross typically takes 5–10 minutes to complete. Participants are welcome to arrive anytime during the class hours to complete their project. If you'd like, you're also welcome to stay, watch demonstrations, ask questions, and enjoy the blacksmithing experience with others.
