I had a wonderful experience at Boerma Institute. The teachers are highly professional and truly passionate about their craft. The course gave me strong foundations in floristry and challenged me to grow. It was intense at times, but absolutely worth it. I loved every minute of it.

I enrolled for Christmas deco course which was amazing and made me feel go ahead with other courses I plan to attend in January. The course is bilingual: both Dutch and English spoken. The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming. I enjoyed a lot. We were welcomed with a warm drink in their lovely cafeteria. Lunch was included in the price and coffe and cookies break, too. Most importantly I was very excited as a beginner to learn new floral skills and left the course super happy. I will come back for sure:) Teachers are lovely too!

Geweldige dagen. Dat smaakt naar meer… ik heb me ingeschreven voor een vervolgopleiding.

Een gastvrije ontvangst en professionele begeleiding….maar bovenal heb ik volop genoten van de activiteit. Leuk ook dat we de mogelijkheid hadden om zelf de kleuraccenten te kiezen.

De workshop is weliswaar wat duurder geworden maar nog steeds het geld waard. Het is gewoon een hele leuke workshop. We doen dit al jaren en ieder jaar genieten we weken van een prachtig stuk, leren nieuwe dingen en hebben een leuke en gezellige avond. Volgend jaar weer 😊

De Masterclass van Alex Segura was een fantastische ervaring. Hij is erg inspirerend en reikt je tal van nieuwe ideeën aan. Ik kan niet wachten om deze nieuwe technieken toe te passen!

This was a nice intro! The cut flowers were very fresh.
After attending Hand-tide bouquets level 1 course I continued with this level 2 course. The course was well structured and focused on more advanced bouquet forms such as frame, gathered, cascade bouquets and funeral arrangements.
I appreciated the practical approach very much. The techniques were demonstrated clearly and individuals got enough attention and feedback both during the exercises and by showing finished examples. The seasonal materials were abundant and fresh. I had great fun working with different bouquet structures and also felt inspired to continue to the next level.
The atmosphere was international but relaxed. I would recommend anyone who already has spiral technique experience to sign up for this course, a nice intro to the floral world.
It was really interesting and helpful. Thanks
Attending the International Master Florist Certification program at the Boerma Instituut, in Aalsmeer, Netherlands, was a transformative milestone in my professional journey as a floral designer. Under the instruction of German Master Florist Gregor Lersch, I was immersed in an intensive curriculum that expanded both my technical skills and creative perspective. The program challenged me to think more intentionally about design through principles such as formlinear composition, the Golden Rule, vegetative design, displacement, and the relationship of contrast. I also gained hands-on experience with bouquet frames, plant design, bridging and scaling, large room installations, and the importance of precise nomenclature and sketching as foundational tools for planning and execution.
Throughout the course, I explored new techniques that pushed me beyond my comfort zone and encouraged innovation. I developed a deeper appreciation for structure and storytelling within floral design, learning how to balance artistic expression with technical precision. Each project
reinforced the importance of mechanics, proportion, and harmony, while also allowing space for personal interpretation and creativity.
The final examination consisted of five components: botanical identification, a bridal bouquet, a freestanding hand-tied bouquet, a buffet piece, and a displacement design. I am proud to have graduated cum laude, meaning “with honors,” as my scores remained consistently above
average. I was especially honored that my work resonated with the judges.
My use of deconstructed Alpinia in a highly decorative application stood out, as did the well-defined and layered color palette in my displacement piece. My buffet design demonstrated strong use of repetition and was constructed entirely from scratch, while my bouquet frame featured elongated feet and incorporated wool alongside botanical elements, showcasing both texture and structural creativity.
My experience at Boerma Institute profoundly elevated my design style and reignited my passion for flowers. It refined my approach to floral artistry and strengthened my confidence in both conceptualizing and executing complex designs. I am deeply grateful to the American Floral
Endowment for providing the scholarship that made this opportunity possible. Their support has enabled me not only to achieve this personal goal but also to give back to the floral community by sharing the knowledge and techniques I have gained. I am committed to helping others grow in their craft, especially those who may not have the opportunity to travel, ensuring that this education continues to inspire and uplift the industry.
