  • 5/5 from Gu Lockley, attended Jan 2025: This was a wonderful. Experience and I had an awesome time. The speed of the lesson and the instructors assistance was great and I was able to learn fast and create 2 bowls. It should be noted clearer in the course that firing and glazing costs extra and requires another workshop, otherwise I would have brought a container with me to take the works home so that I could glaze at home and take back to be fired.

  • 5/5 from Shokofeh Karimabadi, attended Oct 2024: My daughter attended a pottery class, and it was a wonderful experience for her. The instructor was patient and made learning fun. The venue was well-equipped, and the materials provided were of good quality, making it easy for the kids to explore their creativity. She learned various techniques and was able to create a few pieces on her own, which she was really proud of! Overall, it was a good value for money, and the most enjoyable part was seeing how much confidence she gained through the process.

  • 5/5 from Brooke Matthews, attended Apr 2024: My daughter really enjoyed the taster class for the pottery wheel. It was her first time using a wheel and the teachers were very accommodating and answered all of our questions. My daughter made two pieces and has chosen to return for another couple of classes to trim and glaze her work herself. There is an option for the teachers to do this for you if you prefer. Highly recommend booking in for this class.
  • 5/5 from Hannah Goto, attended Apr 2024: This class was the perfect introduction into pottery wheel throwing. Our teacher Coco was kind and gentle with clear instruction. They gave the perfect balance of hands on guidance and allowing us to explore and relax into the craft in our own time and way in an encouraging environment. Coco’s studio is spacious, neat and inspiring. This is the best value class you can find! We will definitely not hesitate to find a time to come back and recommend to all our family/friends as a worthwhile, shared learning experience. We leave with a solid foundation of basic skills and inspiration to spur us on into pursuing this art form further!
