About PizzaLaden – Pizzaschule Teesdorf

PizzaLaden is a pizza school with an associated online shop in the business park on the B17 in Teesdorf. Both are run by itweso GmbH; the founder and managing director is Klaus Kastler, who appears on the website as "Klausi" and, according to his own information, teaches the courses himself. In 2024 he completed further training at the AVPN in Naples, the association for Neapolitan pizza. The shop grew out of his course participants' questions about ovens and ingredients.

The courses build on each other, but you can start wherever you are at the moment. You book a course like an item in the shop, and according to the website you can cancel free of charge up to 7 days before the course starts.
