Grasshopper Level 2 Training Course - Live and Online
Join Simply Rhino's experienced Grasshopper3D trainers to continue your Grasshopper journey with our live online and certified Grasshopper course.
Our courses are always delivered to a small group where Q&A is encouraged and personal attention is possible. This small class format (maximum of 8 attendees) works much better than a larger group which becomes a lecture rather than a training course focused on you!
The aim of this course is to provide you with an in-depth understanding of Grasshopper3D and two of its main plug-ins, Kangaroo and Weaverbird, giving you a full grasp of parametric modelling, form finding and mesh manipulation. Throughout the course, we will look at the underlying logic behind Grasshopper, including its complex data tree structure, irregular surface paneling, meshes modelling and genetic algorithm.
We will also look at physics simulation and optimisation through Kangaroo, including planarization, form-finding and bending forces to reproduce material behaviour within the parametric model and create construction-aware geometry. We will look at mesh subdivision with Weaverbird to model tree-like structures. We will also show you how to develop your own set of tools through user objects.
Although the class is based on a pre-defined schedule, each class is always different depending on the audience and requests happening throughout. We will make sure that the class matches your expectations and ambitions with the software. Most importantly, we want you to leave the class inspired and ready to use and create with the software at all stages of design.
The class is aimed at people who have already undertaken our Grasshopper Level 1 Course or who use Grasshopper in their work on a daily basis. It is also preferable to have an intermediate level in Rhinoceros. Although Grasshopper is mostly used for design, the class is about parametric thinking and workflow and therefore is not addressed at a specific profession. Over the past several years of delivering Grasshopper Level 2 we have had architects, engineers, industrial designers, jewellery designers, contractors, project managers and artists attending the class.
Delivering Live Expert Grasshopper Training to Small Groups
Online Grasshopper Courses from Simply Rhino Training are all Live sessions with our Rhino3d Authorised Trainers. This live and interactive delivery format allows for discussion and timely questions. We record the sessions too, so you can go over the material again and as required following the class; so we’d say this is the best possible online learning approach, first live, and then access to recordings of your courses.
Simply Rhino class sizes are kept to a maximum of 8 attendees, this small class group approach ensures every attendee can have personal trainer attention. This is far better than a larger group approach which turns training in to a lecture - join a small group with us and improve your Grasshopper skills in the best environment!
Student numbers to Online Training Courses are strictly limited and our students can expect individual support.
We use GoToMeeting as the hosting solution for our online courses, it’s a reliable and professional commercial solution for the delivery of online classes, among other useful tools it allows for Screen Sharing so the Instructor can (should you give permission) see and comment on your work just as they would in the classroom.
Additionally, each online course booking includes an opportunity for a one-hour 1-2-1 session with our Rhino3d tutor at an agreed mutually convenient time (outside of the main class hours)

Before our Simply Rhino online courses and private training sessions our trainers will be in touch to arrange a short orientation session with you.
In this 15-minute session we’ll meet online to test all of the connections, make sure you are familiar with joining the online training and describe the set-up for the upcoming session/s.
Before attending an online class please check that:
If you have any questions for us regarding your training set-up then please get in touch at least a few days before your training is due to start. This will give us time to help sort out any issues that may arise.
