I so enjoy going to the Bondi Pavilion Clay Studio, both for tuition and open studio. Agatha and Leanne are such supportive, patient teachers….casual yet focused. It’s a wonderful and unique environment right on Bondi Beach.

Deirbhle Mannion • Attended Aug 2026



It was a great learning experience - only three students, which meant we got almost one-to-one attention - I enjoyed a sense of curiosity, intrigue, intensity and … suspense!!! I can’t wait to see how my pieces turn out!!! Thank you Agatha

This is the second time I have completed the foundations course in wheel throwing. The course is great and the best thing is Ariel the teacher who is an excellent instructor, super patient and genuinely interested in helping you learn. And it's a lovely community studio in Bondi. I highly recommend this class.

Jodi Sher • Attended Jul 2026



This course was a great introduction to all the steps for throwing vessels. Our teacher Ariel was excellent - calm, insightful, able to instruct us in the very basics.
Whilst I may not have developed a high level of skill, I most certainly developed a high level of appreciation for the art form
The course has whet my appetite to learn the practice in depth


Vivienne Olian • Attended Jul 2026



Great class that was for young kids but I the grandma joined in with my 10 year old granddaughter as I really wanted to do some clay work too. Everyone was fine about it and I loved the class. I think the teacher geared to the young children very well and catered for the range of their ages with amazing patience.
THANK YOU

Richard Kery • Attended Jul 2026



My Daughters birthday and we organised a little pottery class with family and some friends. Teacher was patient and clear in the basics and helpful when kids needed assistance.
Room and equipment were all very comfortable and the pottery room was ready for our arrival.
I highly recommend doing a private family class at Bondi Pavilion Clay Studio

Fenneke Aben • Attended Jun 2026



This course was so much fun and relaxing for the mind. Agatha is a great teacher. I will definitely sign up for more!

Deirbhle Mannion • Attended Jun 2026



I have thoroughly enjoyed my five sessions of hand building with clay!! Agatha creates a great balance between expert advice, guidance and clever tips but also leaving each student to build and develop their skills and work on their projects independently. I can’t wait for the glazing glass to glaze my pieces and then I’m sure I will be signing up for another five week course thank you Agatha and everyone else who helps run the studio.

Ariel is the best teacher in throwing that I have had! He took us through each stage of the process in a very xonsidered way giving us key points to remember, deminstrating the process and observing and guiding us.
Focused and clear.

Miri Assouline • Attended Apr 2026

Ariel was a great communicator and clearly demonstrated how to create ceramic bowls using the wheel. I would recommend this course to other interested people. Donna

Deborah Delon • Attended Feb 2026



I really enjoyed the 5 weeks wheel throwing. I knew wheel throwing is very difficult and I came with no expectations to produce anything. But Agatha has been a wonderful teacher, as well as a very talented artist. I specially loved the trimming part, it's so satisfying.
And I even managed to make some stuff I was really proud of. But more than the result itself, I really enjoyed learning and have a nice relaxing time. The atmosphere of the studio is very nice and welcoming, and it's very inspiring to see other people creations.
Thanks Agatha for those 5 weeks, I'll keep coming for sure.


Carolyn Lancaster • Attended Mar 2026



Teachers are really patient and knowledgeable -it's very friendly and you can learn a lot. Highly recommended!

Alex Lawson • Attended Feb 2026



Wonderful 5 week course with a small group of 5 learning about pinch pots, coils, slab building, glazing and more. Leanne is a great teacher- very knowledgeable and patient!

Noah Klein • Attended Feb 2026



We recently completed the five-week pottery course and it was such a great experience. The structure of the course was excellent - each week built nicely on the previous one, giving everyone enough time to practise the fundamentals while also experimenting and improving. It was a really fun, relaxed environment and a great way to learn something creative.
A special shout-out to our teacher, Ariel, who was fantastic throughout the whole course. He explained techniques clearly, was incredibly patient, and had a great ability to step in with helpful tips exactly when you needed them. He created a really supportive atmosphere where everyone felt comfortable giving things a go, even when the clay wasn’t cooperating.
By the end of the five weeks we were amazed at what we’d managed to make. Highly recommend the course - and if you get Ariel as your teacher, you’re in very good hands.

Eden Cohen • Attended Feb 2026



Ariel was a great and patient teacher. I have never done wheel throwing before, and I found this course to be an excellent introduction. He taught me many techniques, and encouraged me to implement them myself.

Shirley Chen • Attended Feb 2026



I took this class with some friends, we all had varying levels of experience but the learning was perfectly tailored to each of us. Ariel, our teacher, was really generous in sharing his ceramics experience and provided calm and clear guidance throughout the classes. I’d really recommend taking this course, especially with Ariel.

Amy Morris • Attended Feb 2026

I had so much fun! Leanne is warm and friendly, she gave clear instructions and helpful feedback. The studio is open and bright, with a lovely atmosphere. I’m so thrilled with my pots! Thank you x
