Hi bought this taster session for my friend for her birthday and of course I had to come too!The session was well organised and friendly. The teacher firstly showed us how it should be done,then we all had a go! There was lots of support throughout the session along with lots of laughs. It was great fun but I don't think any of us is signing up for the Great Pottery Throw Down next year!

Absolutely loved this class, the two hours flew by! Alex is a brilliant teacher with so much patience, lots of great knowledge. I made two things but had the opportunity to make more if I wasn’t as bad would definitely recommend.
