I was a complete beginner. It wasn’t easy but Filipa gave a wonderful tutorial and patiently guided my efforts. The demonstration was swift but thorough (and there were guides pinned up to remind us of the steps) - and then we all just got stuck in. Hugely relaxing and satisfying. I made a pot to be proud of and would definitely recommend.

Had a fantastic time a friendly environment, buts it's harder than I expected , we were shown how to do it very well and thoroughly at a pace we could all follow and if we had any problems help was at hand immediately. Can't wait to pick up my pot

Frida is a fantastic teacher, very clear and calm. Everything was demonstrated clearly and everyone was given as much help as they needed. 2 hours flies by and this class is a really good introduction to pottery if you’ve never used a wheel before

our instructor, Dulce (to rhyme with 'pulse'!) was lovely and so helpful, she gave everyone individual attention after the initial instructions to the small class. She was really encouraging and attentive and ensured that everyone had something they were happy with by the end of the class. I had been bought my class as a gift with a gift card and it was super easy to get booked in on the website and there was a lot of choice of days and times.
