Expect to whip up to 2 masterpieces during this class— it's a real blast for beginners! This is an open group session, with a maximum of 8 fellow pottery enthusiasts learning alongside you. Bring a buddy along or come solo to mingle with new friends who share your love for clay and creativity.

This class was really fun! I've been thinking about doing a wheel throwing course but wanted to do a taster first and it was worth it. I was lucky to have a very small class of 3 of us and the instructor was very helpful and explained everything in detail. I would definitely recommend to anyone who is interested in giving pottery a chance. Only thing I would have done differently was book a full wheel throwing session rather than hand building and wheel, only as I enjoyed the wheel more! Good to keep in mind that it will take a min of 3 weeks until you can collect your items but that's completely fine :) Overall really good.
