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!

This was an excellent class! Chiara was a great teacher. Very clear and kind and she kept us all moving alone nicely. I made 2 pots in 2 hours and I'm delighted with that.

My daughter and I loved this class! Chiara was an excellent teacher creating a very relaxed and encouraging atmosphere in which to learn the new skills of the potters wheel. The small,size of class was really beneficial as Chiara was there to help at every stage of the learning and ,asking process. The use of the 2 hours was a super efficient way to learn and get an end result to take home to show what you have learned. This would be a great gift for anyone who likes doing different types of crafts or as a development to anyone who has hand built with clay. We enjoyed it so much we will go back again. Thanks again!

This was a great introduction into using the pottery wheel. We were very lucky as the class was just the 2 of us and we got pretty much 1 to 1 teaching. Chiara was a really good teacher and we had lots of fun. Would highly recommend.

My girlfriend and I had the best time at this pottery workshop. Our teacher Chiara was wonderful - so friendly and knowledgeable. The demo at the beginning was impressive to begin with but even more so when you try it yourself and realise just how much skill it takes! We had so much fun. Would highly recommend this class.

We had a class today with Chiara and it was great fun! She did a fantastic job teaching us how do the process, helping us as needed, but also giving us plenty of time to play around ourselves and experiment. You get to keep one item included and choose among two different glazes. Super excited to go back and pick up the finished product in a few weeks!

Was gifted this class for my birthday and I had so much fun! Chiara explained all the steps carefully and was very helpful and patient with us when we had a go ourselves. Was very chuffed to have created a cup and small bowl by the end of it, would highly recommend to anyone who likes to get crafty. Looking forward to seeing what other classes they do!

Very pleasant and keen tutor. Studio a bit crammed for 6 people. Only 4 wheels so had to take turns. Hope money left on voucher will cover the cost of finished pieces.
