We had booked onto the beginners pottery workshop for two hours. There were six people in our class and each of us had come in pairs. I was happy to see that the class was a small size and I felt safe with all the usual social distancing measures in place. There was a quick demonstration at the start then we were allowed to get our hands on the clay.
The format of the class was really relaxed and Stu walked around helping each of us in turn. It was really helpful to have his help to centre the clay and form the perfect shapes we were trying to achieve. This class focuses on creating bowls and cylinders which was more than enough to keep us entertained over the course of the workshop. I have to admit he makes it look incredibly easy but it was anything but!
As a beginner I would definitely recommend this workshop, during our 2 hours we created about three pieces each (although one or two definitely turned back into a lump of clay by the end of it) and we were able to pick one piece to take home. It was an additional £10 if you wanted extra pieces put through the furnace.
