Knife Skills Class

The Knife Skills Class is a hands-on culinary workshop designed to teach proper blade safety, grip, and slicing techniques. Hosted at the Kind Kitchen Headquarters in Durham, this monthly session helps home cooks transition from basic chopping to efficient, professional-style meal prep. If you plan to attend, note that the class is open to participants ages 11 and older, making it a highly practical activity to do with your middle or high schooler. The venue provides all necessary equipment, including knives, cutting boards, and ingredients, so you only need to show up ready to learn. Wear closed-toe shoes and tie back long hair for safety in the kitchen. This workshop makes a smart addition to your weekly routine because it teaches a lifetime safety skill. It is a productive way to spend a Monday evening, giving your older kids real-world confidence that translates directly to helping with family dinner prep.
