Immerse yourself in the fundamentals of the pottery wheel

This. Is. It. During this six-week ceramics course you're going to ground yourself with a foundation of wheel thrown pottery. You’ll be able to take a ball of mud and throw it into something beautiful (or not, that's fine too).

+ Structure

Similar to the four week course, in the first two weeks we’ll cover centring (the most gloriously frustrating, hypnotising process you’ll ever experience), and how to manipulate your blob into a work of art. In week three, we learn how to trim ribbons of clay to finesse our items. However, in the six week course, we go back to throwing for weeks four and trim again in week five. We find now you’ve had a few tries and run through the entire process, you start to actually get the hang of it in these weeks. In the final week, we come together for a glazing session to turn our masterpieces into fully functional ceramics.  

+ Lesson length

Included in our six week session is weekly, 2 hour lessons from our fabulous throwing master, who will hold your hand every step of the way - literally if needed - a bag of beautiful, tactile midfire clay, firing and glazing.

+ No experience required

This class is ideal for folks with zero experience, though to those who've had a few lessons, but need a refresher to improve their technique. 

+ Can I reschedule

 Class sessions run for six consecutive weeks. Same day, same time. Sorry, if you can’t make it to a session, we’re not able to offer make-up classes, or switcheroos. 

+ How do I book

Please note: only the FIRST date of the session is listed when booking in below (click 'select a time' button).  You only need to book in for  the first date of the session and you will be automatically signed up for all 6 consecutive weeks. 

*If one of your course dates falls on a public holiday, your course will resume the following week, and pick up where you left off.   For example, if the third week of a course falls on the Kings birthday (June 8th, 2026) or Labour Day (Oct 5th, 2026), that third week will actually take place the following week, skipping the public holiday.

Class sizes are strictly limited (sorry, you must be over 16 years to attend)
