Memorable Experience
This was an amazing experience. Really got to participate and feel like I actually made it. Paul was an excellent teacher and I created a piece of art the I will have for ever. I did the fish and it was worth the upgrade.

Description
Glassblowing, at its heart, is a team sport! We bill by the piece, but we can get more than one person working on each piece. Most pieces are great for either one or two people. We encourage teamwork with you and your fellow glassblowing students, making this an ideal activity for families and groups, large or small. As a team-building activity, glassblowing lessons bring you and your group together in a fun, challenging, and interactive format that strengthens bonds and encourages teamwork. When you come with your family and friends to make one or more pieces per person, we team you up to involve as many people as possible in the whole experience. The more pieces you make, the more experience everyone gets in the glass studio.

Blow Glass and Blow Your Mind!
Amazing experience! The entire process was fascinating and Vito was a great instructor who helped us feel safe and comfortable through each step. Everyone we encountered was friendly and knowledgable. My mom and I made a heart and a Christmas ornament that we will have as keepsakes of our special time in Maui! Highly recommend doing as a solo or group activity! Thank you Moana Glass!

Amazing experience!!
While visiting Maui, we did the Moana Glass blowing private lessons for two for my husband and myself. It was absolutely fantastic! We had a 2-hour session and with the wonderful help of our instructors, Victor and Louie, we created the most beautiful turtle and large glass vase. Victor and Louie were amazing instructors and coached us through each piece. We loved that they really let us do most of the 'work' while guiding us. It truly was an amazing experience and even more wonderful that we ended up with 2 special mementos from our time on Maui. They shipped our pieces to us, and they were packaged extremely well and arrived very quickly. Also, a shoutout to Sue who was incredibly helpful in booking our session! Highly recommend!!

One piece private lesson
Booked a lesson to make a large starfish. Booking was easy, direct thru the website, so no problems there! Arrived early for the lesson to browse the Art Gallery, beautiful pieces of art! The lesson was amazing, very informative all throughout the session. Had a wonderful experience, fully recommend to anyone interested in getting up close and personal with glass blowing. I was Blown Away :)

Best Glass Blowing Experience and Art Gallery
Oh my goodness, there is not enough space to tell you how AMAZING this experience was. From the moment Sue greeted us to the tour at the end and meeting Ryan Staub it was incredible. I cannot say enough about our Artist Paul who was patient, kind, funny, encouraging and so very talented! He helped me create the most beautiful fish and I walked away with a love for glass blowing that I never knew was in me. I seriously wanted to do more and more! We had been looking to purchase a glass piece and passed by the Art Gallery when Sue offered a private class to make our own. I am so thankful she did! Maui is beautiful and has a lot to offer but this was the highlight of our trip. That’s saying a lot as we did a lot! I highly recommend Moana Glass if you are looking for a special piece of glass or metal art and of course for this experience of creating your own. It turned out beautifully and the memories will last my lifetime. Thank you so much Paul, Sue and Ryan for your Aloha and many blessings as you continue to build your new space! We will be back! I received my masterpiece and will cherish it forever! If you are on Maui, DO THIS!!
