Whether you’re completely new to fire or you are a seasoned pro. You’ll benefit from our private lessons.

95% of our private students take our standard lesson plan. It’s tried and tested over hundreds of students and will provide you with a solid foundation to build on. Some of the techniques covered include…

⦁ Eating fire by extinguishing a lit torch in your mouth
⦁ Extinguishing a torch using jellyfish, hand and forced extinguishes
⦁ Body trails or “fuses” to transfer fire using your body
⦁ Collecting vapour from a hollow torch and from the wick itself
⦁ Manipulating vapour (the cool stuff!)

Our lessons are structured in a way that builds confidence as the day goes on, and developed to give you a solid understanding behind the movements and the science that makes this magic happen!

"Absolutely brilliant class. so good I want to do another next time! learnt loads and all in a lovely relaxed atmosphere."

I took the fire manipulation workshop in June and LOVED it!! Tom is incredibly skilled at the art and an amazing and patient teacher. I am DYING for him to come back so I can go again! Highly recommend!!!

"Great teacher in fire manipulation and fantastic fire safety. Keeps in contact so you can always ask any questions that might come up later on. Brilliant!"

"Amazing experience! Tom was patient, understanding and has a great sense of humor. He’s genuine, down to earth and doesn’t have an ego. Ideal for beginners like me. Recommended to anyone who wants to try something new, out of sheer curiosity or the start of a new fiery career!"

"Great workshop from a fantastic instructor. I'm already a fire eater but I learnt new skills and had my passion reignited. thanks so much for a wonderful experience"

"Tom provides an empowering, inspiring and above all fun training course. I really enjoyed his teaching style and was impressed with his ability to enable the whole class to progress despite the varied levels of skill and experience. I will definitely be attending another workshop in future!"

"Can’t recommend Toms fire manipulation courses enough. Tom is so approachable and is also contactable after the course for more info or hints if needed. I came away with more tricks, extra knowledge and some great helpful hints, but most importantly I had a great day playing with fire. This is a super friendly course and great for all abilities."

"Great course. Big emphasis on the safety first and all the right precautions put into place so you felt confident to give it a go! Chilled vibe, good atmosphere, great teachers!"

"An absolutely amazing day! The team were very knowledgeable, fantastic teachers, the course was set at a good pace with a fun atmosphere. We were able to practice each trick throughout the day and they were great at instilling confidence and explaining why something didn’t work. Very proud I managed the trickiest one at the end!! Highly recommend!"

"Having never done fire manipulation before, I was understandably nervous but the team were so supportive and friendly. I had an absolutely amazing time!! I got to practice the different tricks, and look forward to doing more in the future! I would highly recommend it!!"

"I had such an amazing time at the fire manipulation workshop in Leeds! It was such an informative and supportive class and I really felt safe and happy throughout.

"I strongly recommend Fire In Your Face to everyone who wants to learn fire tricks as the provided knowledge was very easy to understand and learn.

"A high end workshop & lesson provider. I would happily proceed with further lessons when available. I believe that in the workshop we managed to cover all basics of fire manipulation and had spare time left to play. This workshop exceeded my expectations."

"I did a Fire In Your Face course in Sheffield just for a laugh really! Now I'm thinking of getting insured to do it professionally. I've met some great people and as part of the Sheffield fire performing community, I would recommend this very highly."

"What an incredible day! I absolutely loved it! Tom and Connor are not only amazing instructors, they are genuinely the nicest guys too! Absolutely recommend this workshop to anyone who wants to learn how to play with and eat fire in a really safe and controlled way! Thanks Tom & Connor xx"

"Fantastic day learning some new fire skills with vapours! Tom and Connor were amazing, so friendly and helpful. The class was well structured, they provided everything we needed and it was tailored to both brand new fire performers and experienced performers. Could not recommend doing this class enough. It was such a great and enjoyable learning experience."

"I attended the Middlesbrough workshop and cannot recommend this enough. I am not a performer or have any background in this so I was completely new. Tom and Connor were amazing and made sure that anyone who was new to fire manipulation felt relaxed and confident. I learned so much and have the confidence to practice at home too. Will definitely be attending another workshop."

"I can't recommend highly enough!!! Tom created such a safe but fun atmosphere and put us right at ease. I am a total beginner and was even a bit wary of fire but we were given time and space to learn. The workshop provided a great foundation to work from and develop some awesome skills! Best way to spend a day!"

"Just done this workshop in Manchester - well worth the money! Tom and Connor were wonderful, patient and clearly knew what they were doing. Tom explained everything so clearly and effectively. I was doing the tricks throughout and by the end, my confidence was through the roof. I will be booking in again in the future and highly recommend them!"

"I had so much fun at today's fire manipulation workshop! Tom explained and demonstrated everything in depth so I felt super safe and supported throughout the whole day. I couldn’t recommend this enough!"

"I trained with Tom last October and his course was brilliant. The pace of the course was great and I learned a lot. His aftercare has also been great! Supportive and pushing me to improve all the time! Even though I have already done a course I will definitely be returning to do another one to help polish up my skills! Highly recommended!!"

"Tom is, (in my experience) the most approachable person and a really intuitive instructor. Incredibly supportive during and after the workshops. The man wants to see his students do well and will give the odd mention on Instagram so he can see how you're getting on and drop a few helpful tips. Highly recommended!"

"I highly recommend Tom. Not only is he informative but he really pushes you to have confidence before you touch the fire, I can't stress enough the safety he has for his students too! 5 stars!"

"Tom is such an incredible teacher! I achieved such firey greatness from his impeccable guidance and comforting directions! He explains everything so clearly and makes you feel at ease! You can feel his passion for the flame and helped me build my confidence and conquer my fears. Can't recommend him enough!"

"I recently came to a Fire In Your Face course in Sheffield. It was such a relaxed and enjoyable environment to learn in and I will certainly be back at a later date!"

"Tom is an excellent and supportive teacher. His knowledge and products are second to none. Highly recommended!"

"Tom's workshops are so informative, supportive and fun. Not only that but he supports you creatively after. I'm glad I invested in spending out on his workshops. Wouldn't go anywhere else!"

"Today I attended Tom's fire manipulation workshop. I found the event thoroughly organised with plenty of information provided before the day itself. Tom (and fellow instructor Connor) are very knowledgeable and well practised in their art. Each trick was broken down, explained and demonstrated effectively. I highly recommend this course to all those seeking some pyro fun. I've come away feeling so happy!!"

"100/10 experience. The most knowledgeable person about fire and the science behind it. I was truly both fascinated and educated by Tom. He made sure to give his time to each person at the workshop and was full of positive encouragement for us all to help us achieve each skill we learnt. He broke everything down into small steps and explained every part of the process (and then some) each time we came on to a new skill. Thanks Tom!"

"No ego, no fancy tricks (unless you ask for them) and definitely not a wishy washy course. Safety was paramount, followed by fun and making sure that us students could understand what was happening. Really thorough lessons in several techniques and stuck around after for any questions/remedial. 10/10 for me and would recommend it to anyone who has ever thought of doing it! Keep up the great work man!"
