This is a fun activity in Forest Gate, London

Looking for craft classes in London that will help you pick up a new skill? Get your hands messy with homemade clay at this beginner-friendly pottery workshop!

Guided by a professional pottery artist, Suzan, this class will begin with an introduction to the materials, processes, and basic techniques of wheel throwing. Your teacher will provide a quick demonstration so you can see exactly how the craft is performed before handing things over to you to begin molding and shaping your clay.

With a maximum class size of two students, Suzan will be on hand to provide plenty of one-to-one support and answer any questions you may have. Looking for things to do in London with kids? Bring your little ones along and play with clay together! Swap screens with a creative and interactive hobby all while enjoying some quality family time.

By the end of the class, you will have created a beautiful selection of pots and get to choose your favourite piece to be glazed by Suzan, ready to collect at a later date and display at home!

Please note:
Your final pieces will be ready around four weeks after your class and will be posted to you when ready.

I booked a private pottery class with Suzan to surprise my boyfriend for his birthday, we had so much fun learning how to make bowls and some questionable pots along the way! Suzan was so wonderful and such a great teacher, she made the experience 10 out of 10, thank you Susan for making our pottery class one of a kind with a romantic feel See you soon!

Absolutely loved this class. Suzan was an excellent teacher, very clear with her instructions as well as patient and attentive. I loved the nature of the class - you are shown a demonstration and then just get on with it. It's an open environment so you can ask questions along the way. In the space of 2 hours I was able to make 4 pieces of work (with varying degrees of success) and was able to pick the best one to be fired and glazed. It was really enjoyable and I would definitely do this again.

This is our second time taking the class as it was so good the first time. I came with my daughter and we both thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Having a private class really made a difference. The teacher gave us the right level of guidance, striking the right balance between of teachings s hands on experience and we managed to produce some lovely pieces. Highly recommend the class for anyone interested in pottery.

I really enjoyed this class. I have noticed that sometimes I can find lots of information and instruction overwhelming at times when it’s in quick succession but Suzan was there with me every step of the way thereafter. She made the environment feel welcoming and understood what I needed when I needed it. I am so happy with the class I definitely would love to return and do a course soon. This is a hobby I definitely want to exercise know that Suzan has equipped me with the tools to move forward confidently.

Highly recommended for a thoroughly enjoyable couple of hours. The perfect balance of teaching and hands on experience (with varying degrees of success!) I look forward to collecting our fired and glazed bowls in the coming weeks. Really nice and friendly studio in a beautiful building.
