Things to remember

No need to worry!

Clay can be washed out of your clothes, but for your own peace of mind wear something which you don't mind getting messy in and avoid having long fingernails as they can restrict throwing on the potter’s wheel.

Aprons will also be available. Please…

What a great 6 week course! Ronaldo is so helpful, friendly and chilled. He throws you in from the very start, no hours of theory and talk that I had on other classes, but learn as you go which I loved! Venue is good, all throwing (not hand building, unless you want to) from A to Z! Thanks!

Ronaldo broke down each technique carefully and was very patient with me. I would definitely recommend this

Great teacher. Chilled and seems to have the ability to be in many places at once. Was recommended to me and I was more than happy with the support given in the classes.
