  Buddy Rhodes Announces Opening
of East Coast Training Center


Now offering Buddy Rhodes Training in Florida

Fireplace at Pro Class

We are pleased to announce our association with Coletti Concrete Studio in Sebastian, Florida.

Beginning this month, Zac Coletti will be offering multi-day Buddy Rhodes workshops covering both basic and advanced techniques. We understand that it can be difficult for east coasters interested in learning about our methods and materials to make the trip to home base in San Francisco to attend hands-on training classes.


Zac is not only the right person to deliver the training, but he is also in a great location on Florida's East Coast. Zac has been teaching for us at our dealer locations for several years and the feedback has always been great. He not only knows the methods and materials, but he also has first-hand experience with the business of high-end custom fabrication.

 

Here is a Schedule and Description of upcoming classes at Coletti Concrete Studios:

 
July 23 - 24.
2 Day GFRC Class. Price $900 per student. Lunch and Beverages provided.
At Coletti Concrete Studio, we specialize in GFRC as our main casting method for large, thin and 3 dimensional pieces. GFRC has become more and more popular as the demand for bigger, lighter and stronger works has grown. In this class you will learn mold making techniques, mixing procedure, casting, de-molding and finishing using Buddy Rhodes' GFRC products. With Buddy Rhodes' GFRC products, you can focus on what you're making without the hassle of sourcing and combining multiple products, saving you time and money. After two days of intensive classes, you will have gained the confidence and know-how to start making high quality GFRC projects right away in your workshop. This is an intensive advanced class. We recommend that you attend the basics class prior to enrolling in this class. 10 students maximum.
