Loved it! I did the beginners throwing class and satisfied a lifelong urge to have a go on a potters wheel! I booked the same day on a whim and was a little nervous but the teacher and all the attendees were really friendly! I made 3 pots (all passable by my very untrained eye) and I’m super proud! Can’t wait to see them glazed

Dulce was an amazing teacher - very calming and knowledgeable. She was great at modelling how to do certain techniques and I really took a lot away from the session. We made some gorgeous pots and I really liked the flexibility to play around and explore with Dulce’s guidance. The studio was lovely and this was such a lovely experience. Thanks so much!
