I'm so glad I found this studio! Returning to ceramics after more than 30 years has been an absolute joy. The open wheel sessions are relaxed, supportive and inspiring, and the glazing class on my first bisque-fired pieces was excellent. Agatha is a fantastic teacher who shares her knowledge generously + more

We went as a family with kids (6& 3yo). We all loved it! My kids were engaged for the full hour. The teacher was lovely and helpful, the place cosy and relaxed. Would go again.

Our daughter really enjoyed the teens school holiday workshop. She really got into the creative, meditative zone and it was a lovely to work with your hands. She said the guidance was just right. The studio provides a lovely setting.

I have learnt a lot from Agatha in this handbuilding class. Agatha has offered me great advice on how to improve my handbuilding techniques. Also very good advice on using slips and glazes. I am really enjoying the relaxed atmosphere of the class and I’m very happy with such a terrific teacher.

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.

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.

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 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 + more

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.
