In my pottery classes, you can experiment and be yourself. Of course, you'll learn the craft there – but above all, it's about the feeling of working with clay. That relaxed, focused work where you directly see what's taking shape under your hands.
Beginner's Course
Pottery Wheel
The beginner course is perfect for anyone who just wants to try out throwing on the potter's wheel.
In a small group of a maximum of 3 participants, you will learn the basics of throwing on the pottery wheel. I will guide you step by step through the entire process and support you in shaping your own vessels.
At the end, everyone chooses their favorite glaze for their pieces. These will subsequently be processed, glazed, and fired by me.
This allows you to focus entirely on the experience and working with the clay during the course.

Multi-day course
Potter's wheel
This course is for people who want to delve deeper into pottery on the wheel.
Here you will learn the entire process of ceramic production yourself, from weighing and wedging the clay, to throwing on the potter's wheel, turning the clay when it is leather-hard, and finally glazing, i.e., painting the clay.
The course consists of three sessions, which build upon each other.

Your Event
For baby bump casting sessions, groups of friends, birthdays, or hen parties, I offer individual pottery events, sometimes in collaboration with Julia from Shift.
These courses are scheduled upon request and can be flexibly tailored in terms of timing and content.
Together, we will find the format that best suits you or your group. I look forward to hearing from you :)
