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 £15 shipping fee, and we’ll handle the delivery to you. The firing process can take up to two months after the session. We will let you know as soon as your piece is ready for collection. (*When collecting your fired work, please bring any newspaper or bubble wrap from home to safely transport your items.)

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

Chiara was very friendly and patient. She demonstrated the process very clearly and helped us create 2 pots each which felt like a great achievement. It was a very enjoyable afternoon and I would thoroughly recommend .

We thoroughly enjoyed our wheel throwing class. Chiara could not have been more helpful or accommodating. She gave us a demonstration of how to operate the wheel work with the clay, make a simple pot and then it was our turn. We had clay prepared for us to make up to 3 pots and she helped us as we made these. I was delighted with the pots I made and will be returning to collect 2 of them once they are fired. Would highly recommend this activity. Chiara had just the right approach.

I got this class as a gift for my mum and sister for Christmas. We had a lovely time. Our teacher Akiko was so friendly and patient and took the time to explain things carefully. The studio is a peaceful space. I would recommend to anyone wishing to try out wheel throwing. Looking forward to picking up our glazed creations!
