Private Pottery Wheel-Throwing Class

Jack Pickering

 A great afternoon class learning the fundamentals of wheel throwing and creating a few pots with help form our instructor Irina. Very fun and would highly recommend!

Callum Osullivan

Monica was so so helpful me and Laura loved our class! Would definitely go again!

Florian Behrens

We are absolute beginners and had a great first session at the wheel with lots of fun! With the good introduction an guidance we were able to finish two cups each! Thanks!!

Harrigan Phillips

Our instructor was so friendly and patient with us, and very good at instructing! 

Clodagh McGuire

This was a great class: the teacher was really clear and gave lots of support and we had a choice of different clays we could use. However, the class finished early to do the washing up and I don't think clean up time should be included as part of the 2-hour teaching time you pay for. In addition, when we went to collect our pots from the studio after glazing they'd been labelled incorrectly so no one knew where they were; we had to go through all the pots from workshops to try to identify the ones we made

Carol Yan

Had the best evening at Decima Clay. This class was perfect for two people - with a great balance of education and hands-on experience. So fun, can't wait to come back!

Hugh Wilkinson-Hunt

What a brilliant way to spend 2 hours! Uhu was a great teacher, really patient and encouraging. Looking forward to seeing my fully glazed creations in a few weeks.

Sarah Bull

The private pottery wheel-throwing class was really well structured from arriving to introductions, demonstration and having a go. The time went really quickly and had a wonderful knowledgeable dedicated tutor. I'd definitely recommend as a gift experience or if you're interested in taking up wheel-throwing. Now I can't wait to see our work after glaze and firing :)

Anna Aruna Kotova

The throwing taster was a great experience, a lot of personal attention and guidance. The time went really fast. Throwing a pot is much harder than it looks, and is a great way to practice concentration! 

Anu Akinbamidele

Was so much fun and relaxing and got to take home nice pieces that I use.
