That's exactly who this is for. No experience, no background, no idea what's under your hood right now, all fine. We start at the very beginning and build up together. You don't need any prior experience! Just bring your curiosity and willingness to learn. We start with the absolute basics and build your knowledge step by step.

Probably not. Most women who think they know the basics have read about them or watched someone else, but never done them with their own hands. This is where knowing about it becomes knowing how.

If you can confidently check all your fluids, properly jump-start a car, and communicate effectively with mechanics, this might be too basic.

But if any of those make you hesitate, you'll gain valuable skills and confidence. Plus, there's something powerful about learning in a supportive environment designed just for women.

You're not alone. This is one of the most common worries I hear, usually about lifting a tire or breaking a bolt loose.

Almost all of it comes down to technique, leverage, and the right tool, not raw strength. I'll show you how to use your body and your tools so you're never just muscling through it, so you know what you're comfortably capable of and what you want to ask for help with.

Yes, you'll need access to a vehicle (yours or a family member's) to get the full hands-on experience. You learn on the car you actually drive, so everything you practice carries straight into your real life. The hands-on helps the learning stick in a way that the demonstration-only classes can't match. Any car you're comfortable getting hands-on with works.

 Yes! You WILL need tools. The tools and supplies you'll need for the workshop are ones you'll want to have for ongoing car care and safety anyway. They're the basics every car owner should have with them and don't worry it's not an overwhelmingly, excessive long list. You can start with basic essentials, especially taking advantage of thrift stores, FB marketplace, etc., or even borrow items from friends and family. I'll send you a detailed list of required and optional items so you can plan ahead. 

Watching is not the same as doing. You can watch a hundred videos of someone changing a tire and still freeze the first time you're on the side of the road with a jack in your hand.

Here you do it yourself, on your own car, with me standing right there when it doesn't go the way the video said it would. You leave having done it, not just having seen it.

It's enough to walk away having done the things that matter most with your own two hands. Fluids, tires, the spare, the battery, and how to talk to a mechanic so you can tell when a shop is being straight with you.

It's a full day and we use all of it. You won't be sitting through a lecture.

We're outside, so we go rain or shine. We start inside and use the indoor space whenever we gather. If the weather turns truly severe, I'll be in touch with a plan.

Definitely not! This room is built so nobody feels behind. A small group of women, all there for the same reason, where there's no such thing as a dumb question. Most women show up nervous and leave wishing they'd done it years ago.

You're covered by my full money-back guarantee.

The workshop is held at Ghost Face Brewing, 215 S Broad St, Downtown Mooresville, NC.
