Michael has taught many apprentices over the years the craft of bow making.
“I have had the pleasure and opportunity to help train and launch several talented people as bow makers in the past. Among others the standouts include Jacob Mitas in the United States, and in the Netherlands Virginia Morricone, now successfully working in Los Angeles, and currently Kaspar Snikkers and Zoë Schroot, both talented makers and repairers. Kaspar has already laid the foundations of his own business and is very actively navigating the bow world. Zoë is an outstanding apprentice, and in addition to her many other talents she is a wizard when it comes to camber-related challenges. Also present on occasion is Sarah Bystrom, a very talented new arrival to the Netherlands. It has been a pleasure exchanging knowledge with Sarah, who brings to this country her years of bow making and repair experience.”
