Makawao Pottery Wheel Throwing Class Experience

This is a really fun class. A great way to spend time with friends and family in a positive learning environment.
This class is primarily for wheel throwing although we can modify the class to meet your preferences.

The focus of this class is I learning the basic foundations for how to make pottery on the wheel.

The class is taught in phases: centering, opening, and pulling. After each segment of the demonstration the students will practice what they have learned and we will move on as a group.

Its an experience of a lifetime no one should miss. When you are finished you will have an amazing mug ir bowl to remember your trip.

This Is a really fun and easy class for anyone!!!
You dont need to be artistic to make something amazing on the potter’s wheel.

The throwing explanation and demonstrations will walk you through the process step by step in 3 phases:

1. Centering-getting the clay centered
2. Opening -forming the bottom
3. Pulling-making the walls of the vessel

After walking through the first pot you will have time to play and practice more on your own. There is plenty of time for practicing and people make on average between 1-3 pots.

The design of this class is to feel the almost magical experience of turning spinning clay into something functional like a cup or bowl.

After your class I can finish, glaze, and fire the pots you choose to keep for a small shipping and firing fee.

I can ship domestic or international depending on where you live. So no matter where you are from you can still get your hand made creations delivered.
