Cooking classes in Belgium
I am going to be in Brugge in May and would like to take some cooking classes.
I have found a few in Lille (France about an hour away), but cant seem to find much in Brugge, Ghent or Antwerp.
I dont want to go to Brussels to do a class.
Does anyone have any ideas?

I have never done a cooking class in Belgium but I found these in Antwerp (Antwerpen in Flemish):

In Ghent (Gent):
4. Chambre Plus
The husband-and-wife team run a cooking school in the cellar where guests learn to make Belgian chocolate. Upstairs, you’ll find three spacious guest rooms—the best of which is the honeymoon suite, with private access to a vine-covered garden.
Address:
31 Hoogpoort
Ghent
Belgium
Phone:
32-9-225-3775
In Belgium, including Bruges (Brugge):

I can't vouch for them but there are two Fodorites who live in Flanders (I am not sure if they are both in Antwerp) and they may come back with suggestions. Anyway, this is a basis for you to make some comparisons.

No personal experience, but there's this one in Antwerp;
http://www.foodforfoodies.be/contact.aspx
very close to central station in Antwerp. There are some interesting foodshops in the area as well (lots of Chinese shops and restaurants).
I don't know any courses in Brugge, but in Knokke (15 mins away by train), I've heard that Michelin starred restaurant Bartholomeus does a cookery demonstration on Tuesday afternoons. I can't find it on their website though.

Only in Dutch, but you'll find contact info on the site.

Other cookery classes / workshops in Antwerp:
De 14 Smaken van de Midi http://www.de14smakenvandemidi.com/workshops.php - no personal experience, but my sister-in-law was very enthousiastic.
De Kokerij at rest. Cocotte http://www.decocotte.be/de-kokerij/?lang=en - no experience with their cooking class but excellent restaurant! It's not in the city center.
Kookeiland http://www.kookeiland.be/kookeiland....kooklessen.htm
