Clay Wheel Class
Clay wheel classes that work with your schedule
Clay Wheel Workshop Timeline (1.5 Hour Class)
Arrive Early & Get Settled (First 15 Minutes)
Please arrive 5 minutes early—⏰ I will arrive on time start right on time! You’ll be welcomed in and introduced to the wonderful world of wheel throwing. Instructors will walk you through the basics, show you the tools, and explain just enough to make you feel ready—or at least confident enough to dive in with solid “let’s wing it” energy.
Hands-On Creating Time (Next 60 Minutes)
This is your time to get messy, center some clay, and make your masterpiece. It’s chill, creative, and surprisingly emotional—don’t be shocked if your slightly wobbly bowl suddenly feels like your new best friend.
Instructors = Your Clay Guardians
Throughout class, our instructors float around like friendly art fairies 🧚♂️🧚♀️—offering tips, answering questions, and stepping in if you need a hand.
Already done this before? Just say, “I got this,” and we’ll leave you to vibe in peace.
The Grand Finale (Final 15 Minutes)
As we wind down, we’ll guide everyone through the clean-up process—don’t worry, it’s quick and communal. Then it’s time to make the big decision: which of your creations are keepers? You can choose up to 2 pieces to keep (included in the class price).
The rest? If something didn’t quite turn out how you imagined (hey, it happens!), we’ll lovingly recycle it back into future clay magic. No pressure—just progress.
After Class: Your Piece’s Next Chapter
Your pottery stays with us to dry, be fired, and prepped for glazing. Then you’ll return to add colour and personality during your glaze session. For now, you leave knowing you made something real—way better than scrolling through someone else’s weekend. 😂
The Magic Number: 14 🪄
Wondering about next steps? Just remember 14:
☑︎ When can I book my glazing?
Answer: 14 days.
☑︎ When can I pick up my art after glazing?
Answer: after 14 days {unless we call you with some not so great news about cracking, mild explosions or kiln errors we need to deal with (all a natural part of a potter's life) in which cases we will give you a new timeline}
Just remember 14 - got it? 🪄
