Class Information:
Moana Glass by Ryan Staub is the only private studio on Maui where YOU can learn the ancient art of glassblowing and make your own Perfect Maui Souvenir. You pick the piece you want to make, select from our assortment of brilliant colors and your instructor carefully tailors your glass lesson to YOU. Your instructor will be with you the whole way, making sure everyone stays safe and ensuring that your piece comes out great!
Many of our students, both kids, and adults, have told us that glassblowing was the BEST thing they did on their Maui vacation. We have 5-star ratings on both Yelp and TripAdvisor. Look below for some of the pieces YOU can make.

What to Expect:
All glassblowing lessons at Moana Glass are private lessons. We want you to have the most hands-on and informative experience you can with glass, while you make your PERFECT MAUI SOUVENIR. We will never group you up with people you don’t know, just you and your friends and family.
In these fun and exciting private lessons you start with a safety orientation, then move on to making your piece. Our expert instructors guide and assist you one-on-one. You start by picking colors from our vibrant color mixes. Your teacher will show you how to apply color to the hot glass and walk you step-by-step through the process specific to the piece you are making.
Glassblowing, at its heart, is a TEAM SPORT! We bill by the piece, but we can get more than one person working on each piece. Most pieces are great for either one or two people. We encourage teamwork with you and your fellow glassblowing students, making this an ideal activity for families and groups large or small. As a team building activity, glassblowing lessons bring you and your group together in fun, challenging and interactive format that strengthens bonds and encourages teamwork.
When you come with your family and friends to make one or more pieces per person, we team you up to involve as many people as possible in the whole experience. The more pieces you make, the more experience everyone gets in the glass studio.
You are welcome to bring along as many friends or family as you like to watch, take pictures or capture video. Our gallery of beautiful artwork will keep people young and old entranced, and our friendly staff offers free studio tours to see how we make stunning works of art.
