FELTING ACADEMY
Felting Academy is an online platform for creative learning, specializing in the art of wet felting. Our step-by-step video courses are led by a remarkable group of artists including May Hvistendahl, Sigrid Bannier, Katerina Korshun, Julia Struzh, Alisa Bordo, Svetlana Fomina, and Svetlana Bolikh — each bringing their own vision and mastery to the craft.
At the heart of our approach are the innovative techniques developed in Russia and Ukraine over the past two decades — methods that have redefined artistic felting as a modern, expressive, and wearable art form. Whether you're creating sculptural hats, felted lamps, floral stoles, or textured accessories, our courses blend tradition with contemporary design.
Felting Academy is more than a learning platform — it's a creative space where feltmakers of all levels come together to explore wool, develop skills, and express something personal through their hands. Join us and become part of a global movement rooted in artistry, heritage, and invention.
How it works

Each course includes:

-
✅ Assignments and questions for reflection — so you’re not just watching, but actually learning

✨ Need offline access? I offer download links for most courses — just ask!
