This is a fun activity in Birmingham.

Ever wanted to try your hand at throwing clay on a potter's wheel but weren't sure if it's right for you? This two-hour Birmingham pottery class is the ideal introduction to this fun, meditative craft!

You'll get to grips with the basics of wheel throwing, from essential theory and practical considerations to the best way to prepare your clay to ensure a smooth end result. Following a detailed demonstration, it'll be your turn to strap on that apron, take to the wheel and start throwing your first pot!

At the end of the session, you will pick your best piece to be fired, glazed and ready to collect in 8 weeks' time. (The firing of 1 piece per person is included in the price while additional pots can be fired at a charge of £10 each)

Our teacher was so lovely, she explained everything very well and helped us throughout to get the shape we wanted. It was a surprise birthday present for my husband and he loved it:) we both really enjoyed it and will be looking at courses because we liked it so much so would definitely recommend to everyone! We especially loved the studio and all the plants it has!!

The instructor is very patient to teach everyone how their hands should be positioning when shaping the pottery. It's not enough time to practice on the pottery wheel as it's about half an hour per person (in two hours class). But the instructor can help you to shape the pottery into something that you want at the end.
