Noel is an excellent teacher and takes the time to disseminate the process of making a quality product. Slow Rise Pizza classes are a must, whether you’re a beginner, a home baker/pizzaiolo, or professional. Guaranteed you will learn how to develop and formulate stunning pizza and more. Not only will you have the opportunity to learn from Noel, but you also will have access to some of the best in the business. I highly recommend taking as many classes as available for elevating your craft.

The class was amazing. I’m just an amateur that cooks at home for his family and it was a great mix of informative and fun. Took away some great tips, ate too much food, perfect evening.

Advanced Pizza Making with Dan Richer from Razza offered a rare in-depth look at an amazing pizzailo’s process in his own home oven. We cooked dough that we made earlier in the week and we mixed and balled fresh dough to use later that day, so we got to see the entire process. I strongly recommend it for anyone who either loves Razza’s style pizza or wants to learn advanced techniques working with sourdough starter.

I thought I knew how to make pizza. Flour, water, yeast, salt, olive oil…how hard could it be? There is so much more to pizza making then the ingredients! I now have an appreciation process and temperature. The beginner class improved my pizza game tremendously! Even if you think you are past the beginner stage I highly recommend you take the beginner class. It builds a great foundation for artisanal pizza making. Looking forward to the intermediate class. Thanks Noel!

Do you want to elevate your craft with Pizza? The obvious answer is yes and what better place to do it with Slow Rise Pizza. Noel brings a vast knowledge of experience and shares his passion with all things Pizza and Bread. Justin makes it fun and you must be dialed into his frequency. I had so many unanswered questions and was hungry for answers. After taking the beginner class, I still wanted more and more. Noel not only answered my questions, he goes above and beyond to embed the necessary skills for artisan pizza making. If you’re contemplating taking these classes…don’t even blink! They’re building an incredible community and want you to succeed on your pizza/bread journey. Plus, they’ll make you laugh a lot!

All of the classes that I have taken have been very informative. Noel is full of great information and Justin keeps it fun and as an accomplished pizza maker himself.

First time attending slow rise pizza. Wonderful learning experience. Adam Kuban did an excellent job demonstrating the many different New York style pizzas. I’m definitely going to attend more Slow Rise classes. So much to learn!!!

I was able to take a class at Surfas LA pre-pandemic and it was absolutely wonderful. Noel and Justin are very passionate, curious, open and hardworking folks. I would highly recommend one of their classes to anyone. Bakers, Pizzaiolos, enthusiasts of anything fermented. In addition the network of things and other topics and skills they continue to provide post class.
