It was very informative and a lot of fun. Great instruction and very hands on. Plus lots of help so you came away with pieces you’d like to keep. Not bad for a first attempt.

It’s incredible! TJ was so kind and patient to us - a group of novice who demanded her help most of the time. In the end, she helped transformed our clay into something amazing. Thank you!

Great class! We’d never done wheel throwing before and managed to make two nice pieces each by the end of the class through the guidance of our teachers!

I had an incredible time at Cernamic! The class was well-organised, and the instructor was both knowledgeable and patient, making it a great experience for beginners and more experienced potters alike. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, allowing plenty of creative freedom while still learning essential pottery techniques. The studio itself is beautifully set up with high-quality materials and equipment, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. I especially appreciated the hands-on approach and the guidance provided throughout the session. By the end of the class, I had created a piece I was really proud of! If you’re looking for a fun, engaging, and creative activity, I highly recommend Cernamic. I can’t wait to come back for another session!
