"I had a great time taking the 3-day course on pan pizzas. I learned a lot and got to eat lots of pizza (yay!). Leo Spizzirri was an awesome instructor and everyone from the Pizza University team was very kind and helpful. It was super fun getting to know my classmates and share our passion for pizza. A great experience overall!"

"great experience that i could not recommend any higher. a steal at twice the price! maestro leo spizzirri is an amazing instructor. marianna is the most responsive ambassador of pizza u. chef dave is great. maxwell is an awesome dude as well. thank you pizza university!!"

"They have very informative, hands-on, classes on different styles of pizza making. Starting from basics of the "chemistry" of the dough making process, all the way up to making pizza. You will learn the fundamentals of the entire process, so you can take that craft home and tailor your end product to suit your customer base wherever you are operating. The instructors are patient and seasoned members in the pizza industry who know their craft well and are not afraid to teach it. This is not a presentation style class, you will actually make dough from scratch, all the way up to making your own pizzas. Very hands on. Highly recommended !!"

"Wow! Amazing class with Laura Meyer and Leah Scurto. I'm so impressed with their broad and specific knowledge of dough and all things pizza. Their generosity around questions and problem solving with pizza makers in class was so appreciated. They brought energy and fun, science and professionalism. The Pizza University has created a great space, offers kind hospitality with a beautiful breakfast spread daily--very appreciated while I'm traveling. The course content and presenters were engaging definately offered ideas to up my pizza game. I would absolutely go again. Worth every penny."

"What an incredible experience!!!! We just got back from such a fun and educational day battling coworkers during Pizza Wars! Great to see how far our skills improved over time. Chef Dave and the team were absolutely incredible. My entire team was sooo thankful and appreciative for the opportunity! Would love to visit again! Absolutely recommend!"
