This 2 hour session is a fun, interactive start to the pottery wheel. You will be taught how to prepare, centre and throw a couple of simple shapes on the wheel such as a cylinder and a bowl which are the most important shapes to learn when first starting out.

There will only be 3 participants in this lesson making it feel more like a private tuition class as opposed to a large group.

An email will be sent out to you after booking with more information on what to bring and wear to the session. Most importantly, long nails…

Things to remember

Please bring your own Apron or wear suitable clothing you don't mind getting mucky! Please make sure your nails are cut short as this may interfere with the clay.

Melisa is such a friendly (offers tea and lovely conversation) and helpful teacher, and really makes you feel comfortable! She focuses on your mistakes and makes you learn through practice - and then you get to keep things you made after they're fired and glazed! Had an awesome experience would 100% recommend and visit again. Maria

This was our first pottery class and we were both instantly hooked! Melissa helped guide us through the basics of throwing on the wheel and, by the end of the quickest hour and a half ever, we had made a selection of fantastic looking pots! She managed to perfectly balance teaching with allowing us to work and experiment independently. Her experience really showed by her ability to instantly recognise mistakes and help you correct them with clear and simple guidance. She is a very patient and talented ceramicist and we would highly recommend her classes to anyone wanting to start pottery. We absolutely intend to go back!
