What Clients Say

Absolutely loved every minute. Cristina made our day so interesting with every aspect from the origin of the coffee bean to the art of latte. I highly recommend to all coffee lovers as there really is something for everyone. I have already enquired about doing an coffee art day at dash, they are so passionate about seeing people grow within the coffee making business they are willing to set aside a few hours of teaching just this. It's not just for people looking to get into coffee business, it really is a great way to enhance your coffee experience at home with family and friends.

The Beginner Barista Course by Dash was an amazing experience from start to finish. The course provided in-depth yet easy-to-understand explanations of the history of coffee, as well as hands-on training with real commercial coffee machines which was incredibly valuable, allowing for proper practical learning.

One of the standout aspects was the welcoming and encouraging environment—no question was a stupid question, making it perfect for absolute beginners. Whether you're an aspiring barista or simply looking to deepen your appreciation for coffee, I can't reccomend this course enough. It’s a fantastic way to take your coffee knowledge and skills to the next level!
