What happens in this class?

This is a two hour hand building class at £32. If you wish to keep what you have made, then there is a separate firing and glazing fee of £8 per item. Because some attendees choose not to keep what they make, we are offering the class at £32 (normally £40) with the option of paying £8 should you decide to keep your work.

Fantastic evening spent crafting a piece which I cannot wait to collect once it has been glazed! So helpful, friendly and a lovely calm creative space - would highly recommend

I love pottery . I also love baking and decorating , and this happy combination came together in my first ever pottery class . I didn’t dare tackle the wheel (yet) so opted for the moulding clay technique clearly explained by owner Tessa who kindly sorted out the details of my gift voucher which I had been unable to use during lockdown . Sak Beh is a stylish little studio , intimate but with ample space to create and chat to fellow class mates , all half my age and amazingly creative ! I loved their enthusiasm and found the whole experience strangely therapeutic once the anxiety of starting from scratch faded . It was tempting to decorate my simple plate more lavishly, but had to reign it in , less is more !. Can't wait to see it glazed next .

I bought this for my wife as a surprise birthday present for her wife and friends. She really enjoyed it and loved the teacher. They are now starting out a pottery collective and I have to fork out for a kiln in our back garden so be warned it can become very addictive!

Absolutely amazing. Firstly the studio is really accessible and very clean and cozy. The teacher was amazing and soooooo helpful. Gave us tons of ideas and helped us along the way. My partner and I will definitely be visiting again and we cannot wait to collect our finished pieces we made.

Better than expected even. Really friendly, teacher and other potters. Didn't need any experience and so satisfying building something to be proud of in 2 hours. The teacher was patient and had time for everyone. Learnt a lot and cannot wait to collect my sculptured pot after firing.
