Very fun beginners class to introduce you to throwing with clay. Everything was provided to us and we only needed to bring ourselves. The instructors are all highly skilled, very friendly and it was a laugh. The studio has some amazing work in there and great to have a look around. Freedom to create whatever you want and then have it fired and glazed and you can pick it up in a few weeks.

We had a very fun and engaging experience at class bento for our pottery making taster workshop. The instructors were knowledgeable and friendly and walked us through the process of making pots which was very structured and easy to understand. Would definitely recommend this to anyone wishing to get a taste of pottery making or just looking for a pleasant experience of learning something new.

We attended the taster session and really enjoyed it, the teachers were very patient and explained things well. They helped each person finish the session with at least one item they had made. I'd highly recommend this session for beginners.
