You asked, we delivered! Our brand new Intensive is here.
Designed for those who want more time on the wheel, this two-day workshop offers both a crash course in the fundamentals and a chance to dig deeper into key throwing and trimming techniques as you go.
Over the course of two sessions, you'll receive 6 hours of guided instruction - perfect for complete beginners looking to build confidence and develop skills at a relaxed, steady pace.
Workshop Schedule:

Introduction to centering, pulling height, and forming basic cylinders.
Short Interval for break & demo.

Second Session:
Introduction to trimming, including turning feet.
Short Interval for break & demo.
Handle-making and application.
With just six participants per session, the small-group format ensures personalised guidance in a calm, supportive studio environment. Whether you're trying pottery for the first time or simply craving more hands-on time at the wheel, this is a great opportunity to slow down and fully immerse yourself in the process.
By the end of the weekend, you can expect to have 4-6 pieces ready for firing. Your glazed and finished work will be available for collection within 3–4 weeks.
A selection of glazes are included in the price of the workshop and can be chosen at the end of your final session to finish your creations.
