Course Overview
This course is designed especially for beginners, offering a gentle introduction to wheel throwing techniques. You’ll be guided through essential methods, such as centering, throwing bowls, cups, attaching handles, and crafting small vases and glazing. You’ll have the chance to try out a variety of techniques, and we encourage everyone to explore their own preferences. By the end of the course, you'll feel confident enough to start creating independently.
Each class is limited to 4-6 participants, keeping a smaller group of students, and the teacher can provide more one-on-one guidance. Over the six weeks, you’ll typically make between 6-8 ceramic pieces. Our studio offers a lovely range of glazes for you to experiment with. If you're interested in learning ceramic painting, we can arrange additional time for you to explore that too.
Your finished pieces will be ready for collection about 4 weeks after the course ends, but sometimes it may take a little longer. We’ll email you when your work is ready. Please collect your pieces within 4 weeks of receiving the email, as we unfortunately can’t store them for longer. If you are not collected within that time, we’ll give them to charity shops due to limited shelf space.
For those who have completed this beginner course and are interested in progressing, we also offer intermediate hand building courses—check our website for details. Alternatively, if you’d like to join our studio as a member, you can find more information online.
