Wonderful session. Teaching pace was great and because the class was intimate there was enough time to attend to everybody. Would definitely recommend especially if you're a beginner.

It was a birthday present for my partner - who loved it - and so did I. It was our first attempt at pottery, and we were both delighted with our (only very slightly wonky) results. The class was so much fun. Our teacher was lovely - encouraging, and very helpful (without ever taking over). I would recommend wearing old clothes - we both got quite splattered.

I enjoyed the class today and although I didn’t expect to make a decent piece, I made two. Maddy was great, calm, encouraging and helpful. Studio is pleasant and bright with only 2 other people in the workshop. Will definitely do this again, with my daughter.

This was such an exciting class for my boyfriend and I. Maddie was so lovely and such a great teacher! The lesson is in a very intimate setting that allows 1-2-1 learning and also opportunity to make something yourself. I would highly recommend coming here it’s 10000% better than others!

I attended the Pottery Wheel Throwing Taster for the very first time and absolutely loved it! The teacher was fantastic – patient, encouraging, and made the whole experience really enjoyable. As a complete beginner, I felt supported throughout and came away not only with something I created myself but also with a new passion I didn’t know I had. Highly recommend this to anyone curious about trying pottery!
