Wheel Throwing Taster Class Reviews

This is a fun activity in Henley-in-Arden, Birmingham

Ever wanted to try your hand at the pottery wheel? This wheel throwing workshop in Warwickshire is your chance.

No experience needed -- just curiosity and a willingness to get your hands a bit messy (a sense of humour also helps). Whether you're after a new hobby, a relaxing afternoon, or just want to see what it's like to "throw" a pot, come give it a try.

You'll work alongside our instructor, who will start off the session with a step-by-step demonstration. After this, you will have a go with the clay yourself, learning to centre, open, pull up, and watch the clay slowly become something uniquely yours. It's harder than it looks (that's part of the fun), and our instructor will be right there to help when the clay has other plans.

By the end, you'll have a selection of pots made by you, on a wheel, from scratch. There's something genuinely satisfying about that cool, wet clay spinning under your hands, and most people find the whole process surprisingly calming (and sometimes quite funny).

“Be careful before you book this… it’s addictive and you will want to go again!!! Robin was a brilliant teacher, nice and steady pace for us beginners. Suitable for all abilities I’m sure, but we were brand new to all of it and did the wheel throwing- gosh it was good fun! Would definitely recommend and will be back again!!”

“We had a great time learning the basics of throwing our first pot at the studio Henley in Arden, and our teacher (Sophie) could not have been any more helpful. Perfect way to spend an hr:):)”

“This was the most wonderful experience. Sophie and her team were incredible. It was well set up and a really calm and welcoming environment. Sophie demonstrated each stage of making our own pots and then we got to have a go. She and her team were on hand throughout to support and direct. We had the best time and are excited to collect our glazed and fired creations when they are ready. I would highly recommend this to everyone. It was so easy to book through Class Bento. Thank you!”
