Pottery Workshop – Build Your Skills with 5 Private Sessions
Take your pottery journey to the next level with a block of 5 private sessions, perfect for anyone looking to develop their skills further or pick up pottery as a fulfilling hobby. Whether you’re a beginner ready to expand on the basics or someone with some experience wanting to tackle more complex techniques, these flexible sessions are tailored to your goals.
There’s no commitment to set dates—sessions can be booked at your own pace, making this the ideal option to fit around your schedule.
What will I learn?
In these sessions, you’ll have the opportunity to explore a wide range of pottery techniques. I’ll provide step-by-step guidance to help you build confidence and refine your skills. Some of the areas we can focus on include:
-
The basics of wheel-throwing: Centering, opening up, pulling up walls, and shaping your pieces.
-
Trimming and turning: Learn how to refine your pieces for a more professional finish.
-
Adding details: Techniques for attaching handles, spouts, and other decorative or functional elements.
-
Glazing: Explore glazing techniques to add color and character to your work.
If there’s something specific you’d like to learn—such as creating larger vases, experimenting with more complex shapes, or developing a signature style—sessions can be customized to meet your interests and aspirations.
What will I make?
Over the course of five sessions, you’ll have the chance to create a variety of pieces, from bowls and mugs to more ambitious forms. Each session builds on the last, allowing you to see real progress in your skills and confidence.
What should I bring?
- Wear clothes you don’t mind getting messy.
- Keep nails short if possible, as this makes handling clay easier.
- Bring a hair tie if you have long hair to keep it out of the way.
