An intensive weekend course for your first contact with the wheel.

This is what you’ll learn in this course

Course designed for beginners – you’ll have a complete hands-on introduction to the basic techniques of throwing and trimming.

  • Kneading, centering and throwing simple shapes (bowls and cylinders).
  • Trimming, to give a texture, burnishing and to put handles.

A selection of your best pieces (chosen by you) will be fired to be subsequently glazed. Once having learnt how to throw, you can sign up for a glazing class to learn how to glaze your pieces. You’ll find the date of the glazing class when you choose “yes” in the registration section.

Otherwise, don’t worry – our team will glaze them (with love) and in a period of 1 month after the course you can pick them up.

No previous experience needed!

You just need to bring old clothes and shoes to change – all the rest is up to us.

Price: 155€/materials included. Glazing class: 30€
