We did a great pottery class with Rosalyn! The class was relaxed and really enjoyable but she gave great tips and took us through various techniques. We also ordered some pizza and prosecco which was a nice added touch.

I arrived 18 minutes late to the Hand Building Pottery Class and was told I couldn’t enter because it would “disturb the class.” While I understand there’s a policy that prohibits entry if you’re more than 10 minutes late, I was very disappointed that there was no option to reschedule or make alternate arrangements. Instead, my class was outright canceled without any flexibility or understanding. This left a sour experience, especially considering I had been looking forward to it. A little empathy or a solution-based approach would have gone a long way.

The teacher was very friendly and bubbly and the activity was fun overall, we learned a bit about pottery techniques. We did however feel as though the time slot was quite short so she worked a bit fast. We'd love if she gave soft yet clear time callouts for the group for when she'd like the group to advance to a later stage. It was also quite unfortunate that to paint your creations, you'd need to find time to come again another day; time is quite short nowadays! All in all, definitely something to try with a friend or significant other!

Really fun class, nice instructor and small group size. This was very good value for money and you can make as many things as there is time for which I thought was good!
