- By the end of the taster class, you will have 2 masterpieces made by you (one thrown on the wheel and another one hand-built)
- You can choose if you would like to enjoy just the experience of the making process £45, or you can choose pots you would like to have fired at the end of the session (£2.50 per pot), and if you would like to decorate and glaze there is an extra fee (£10ph)

Giuseppe was an amazing teacher for Holly & I, we had a lot of fun throwing pots and then free forming clay with our hands. We both learned a lot and Giuseppe is so experienced. We liked it so much we want to do it again.

Despite there being a slight change of plans with location, the teacher was well prepared, and gave us lots of skills to work on. We had two tries on the wheel which was so much fun, and then some time to hand build with two balls of clay too. The only improvement I'd suggest is having a slight bit more time with the hand building!!

Paid way too much for the original studio to be unviable. Class was fun but I felt I paid way more than I should have.

Wonderful experience with great and attentive teachers, 10/10 will definitely do another session! To begin we learned to centre the clay then make it into a pot using the wheel, and at the end of the session we were given freedom to make whatever we wanted hand moulding the clay, with lots of tools provided to engrave and shape whatever we decided to make. I personally really enjoyed using the wheel and found it very therapeutic all together
