Our family of 4 went for a 2 hour class. There were 7 pupils in total and Robyn led the session. We were taught how to handle clay and then worked in pairs at the pottery wheels. Each made 2 items. Robyn was very welcoming and positive, with lots of support throughout. A brilliant afternoon, thank you. The studio we were in is reached via stairs, so may not be accessible to all.

I recently took a pottery class with Avery, and it was an incredible experience! Avery's teaching style was both engaging and supportive, making it easy for everyone to feel comfortable, regardless of their skill level. The class was well-structured, allowing us to explore various techniques while also giving us the freedom to express our creativity. I especially appreciated how Avery provided personalised feedback, which helped me improve my skills throughout the course. Overall, it was a fantastic class, and I left feeling inspired and excited about pottery!

Robin, the instructor, was very welcoming and kind. She clearly demonstrated the techniques needed and then we had time to create our own items. I enjoyed being able to experiment on the wheel with different shapes. The other members of the group were also very inclusive.
