This is a fun activity in Edinburgh.

This hands-on wheel-throwing class (Max 4 students) is perfect for beginners eager to explore the wonderfully tactile world of clay and is open to all skill levels. ViViVi Studio offers a step-by-step approach to help you create your own beautifully designed pottery. Whether you’re completely new to throwing or looking to refine your skills, this class is ideal for you.

In this session, you’ll master essential throwing techniques and craft your very own piece of functional art to cherish.

While the throwing process is often therapeutic, it also offers valuable lessons as you work with the spinning wheel. Beyond learning the techniques, you’ll develop the ability to adapt to changes and challenges, fostering a mindset that embraces problem-solving. At ViViVi Studio, we’re committed to providing a mindful and enriching experience, allowing you to enjoy the calm and creativity of working with your hands.

We ensure you have everything you need to bring your vision to life. As you shape the clay, you’ll experience the joy of creating something uniquely yours. ViViVi Studio provides all the materials for throwing, encouraging your personality to shine through every creative decision you make.

At the end of the class, you can decide whether you’d like to fire your best pot (1 piece per person). Your favorite piece can be glazed and fired, or you can choose the eco-friendly option to recycle it. For any additional pieces you’d like to keep, there will be a cost of £10 per piece. If you’d like your items shipped, there will be an additional £10 shipping fee, and we’ll handle the delivery to you.

When collecting your fired work, please bring any newspaper or bubble wrap from home to safely transport your items. Your pieces will be ready for collection within four weeks, and we’ll notify you as soon as they’re ready.

Join us for a meaningful and relaxing journey into the art of pottery!

Our teacher was very friendly and did a great job in explaining and showing us how to use the pottery wheel. We had fun and made some small pots we could fire in the kiln. There are 2 choices of glaze, I would have liked to have some other colour choices.

Our session was with Chiara who was very engaging and enthusiastic about pottery. She explained everything in a very approachable way and made the session very inclusive and enjoyable. It was our first time doing pottery and Chiara managed to get us to produce things that resemble pottery which we were very pleased with. Great experience and we would love to do it again.

We had such a wonderful time at the wheel throwing pottery class! Chiara was absolutely lovely — so knowledgeable, patient, and friendly. She explained everything clearly, gave really helpful tips, and made the whole experience fun and relaxing. We left not only with our own little creation but also with a real sense of achievement. Highly recommend this class to anyone curious about pottery or just looking for a creative, enjoyable experience!

We booked a wheel throwing session for just the two of us and we weren’t disappointed! Chiara was our teacher, she was very relaxed and sociable, as well as professional. She showed us lots of different techniques and was patient too. We had a great time and even managed to make something half decent to keep! I would definitely recommend booking in and we hope to be back for some further sessions. Thank you!

It was our first time doing pottery throwing/making and Akiko was a great teacher. She was very good at explaining all the steps and giving us individual tips. The class size was small (4 of us) which worked very well. Our class ran slightly over to allow us all to get enough time so we didn't feel rushed, which was very appreciated. Thank you very much Akiko!
