Over three hours, you'll master dough handling and traditional firing techniques in an unhurried setting, then eat what you've made.

What to expect
Nino meets you at the terrace and walks through pizza fundamentals: how dough ferments, why temperature matters, the angle of the peel. You'll get your hands into real dough, feel the stretch, learn when it's ready. He'll demonstrate the toss and the oven technique—timing is everything. Then you shape your own pizza, choose toppings, and watch it blister and char. The class moves at a gentle pace; there's time to ask, to mess up, to try again. You'll sit down to eat your pizza at a table with views across the bay.
