• Bladesmithing requires a degree of exertion and students must be in reasonably good physical condition in order to successfully complete any of the classes. The dangers for those who have mobility issues will make these classes difficult or impossible to complete. When in doubt, please call 612-562-9020 to discuss.

  Cancellation/Rescheduling Policy:

  If you need to cancel or reschedule your registration, please call our office at (612) 562-9020. For all cancellations (including rescheduling), the following policy applies: We understand schedules change unexpectedly; however, NorthStar Forge staff and instructors invest considerable time and energy planning our schedule, and last-minute vacancies for classes are often not easy to fill. Rescheduling can also be challenging due to limited instructors/availability. For these reasons, please be aware of the following Policy:

  Cancellation/rescheduling more than 21 days in advance will receive a full refund, less a 4% processing fee (fee applied to cancellations only, no rescheduling fee); 20-14 days in advance, a 10% processing fee will apply; and less than two weeks, a 15% processing fee will apply. No-shows and same-day cancellations forfeit the full class fee.
