Personalised. Technical. Your Embroidery Machine, Your Goals.z
Have you followed the manuals or watched endless videos – yet still find yourself battling thread breaks or tension headaches? You’re not alone. Group classes sometimes move too fast, don’t cover the exact questions you have in the moment, or simply don’t fit into your available time.
Sometimes what you really need isn’t more information, but personal guidance tailored to your embroidery machine and your challenges.
Our 1-to-1 Machine Embroidery Coaching Programme gives you a dedicated, experienced coach focused entirely on YOU – your settings, your questions and your goals. Whether you’re a hobbyist or a professional, you’ll move confidently from trial and error to flawless execution, learning at your own pace and achieving beautiful, professional finishes on all your embroidered items.
Coaching Programmes
We offer four tailored coaching options, designed to support you at every stage of your embroidery journey – entry-level beginner, hobbyist, small-scale income embroiderer, and large-scale embroiderer. Each tier meets you where you are and addresses the challenges specific to your level.
Every programme focuses on the troubleshooting issues most commonly experienced at that stage, giving you targeted, practical guidance that leads to smoother workflows and consistently professional results.

FAQ
With 1-to-1 coaching, you get undivided attention focused entirely on your machine, projects and questions. Group classes share the coach’s time among multiple learners, follow a set pace, and may not address every individual challenge – whereas private coaching adapts in real time to what you need most.
Private coaching costs more because you’re paying for personalised expertise, flexible scheduling, and customised solutions focused solely on your progress. You receive immediate, detailed feedback, direct problem-solving and lessons built specifically around your learning goals – not a one-size-fits-all curriculum.
That depends on the level you choose.The Hatching Hooper tier is designed for complete beginners, while others expect some machine embroidery familiarity. Your coach will confirm prerequisites and help you choose the right entry point to ensure you get the most out of your sessions.
Yes – in most private coaching setups you work directly with your own machine, so that you learn on the exact equipment you use every day. This personalised focus helps you troubleshoot real, machine-specific issues.
No problem! You can easily book additional coaching sessions at an hourly rate of R480 per hour so you get the extra time you need to fully master specific techniques or solve lingering issues.
Because every session is tailored to your skill level and goals, many learners see faster progress compared with self-study or group classes.
Immediate, personalised feedback means you spend less time guessing and more time stitching with confidence.
Absolutely! You’re encouraged to let us know the exact topics you want to focus on – from machine basics to advanced techniques – and coaching will be structured to tackle the areas you care about most.
