I myself absolutely love to cook and have been looking in to these classes myself. If I could afford it I would definately be doing it. Alot of the local wine stores will offer some cooking classes as well (with wine tasting). There is a company called "The cookbook company" that offers alot of good looking ones as well.
Like Jordan I have been cooking for myself since I was 12 (single parent family) and as some people on this site seem to think, I don't think the cooking classes offered at sait are so much about "learning to cook" but they are about learning about the specific styles of cooking, as well as the type of foods from the various regions. They give you an opportunity to practice techniques, pick up on little tips and actually taste the food. It is more about the total experience as opposed to just generally learning to cook.
