Learn pottery from the ground up in this multi-week London course covering hand-building, wheel-throwing, surface decoration, and glazing – all suitable for complete beginners through to intermediate makers. Each week focuses on a different technique, but the real emphasis is on time to practice and experiment with clay. The pace is entirely your own; whether you're working towards specific skills or simply enjoying the meditative rhythm of making, you'll progress at a pace that feels right for you.
You'll be guided by a professional, skilled team of teachers who know how to help you develop real confidence and technique. But this course is also about the experience itself – working with clay alongside others, relaxing into the creative process, drinking tea, and discovering new friends who share your love of making. The studio is filled with plants and creative energy; it's a space designed for you to slow down and focus on what you're creating.
By the end of the course, you'll have learnt new skills, made things you're proud of, and hopefully discovered a community of makers who get why pottery matters. You'll leave not just with techniques and finished pieces, but with the knowledge that you can keep making whenever you want to.
What you'll get
  • Access to all of the studio tools and glazes.
  • Firing is charged at £5/kg.
  • All fired pieces will be ready for collection 4 weeks after the course is finished.
Knowledge required
Open to all levels, whether you’re new to clay or building on existing skills.

Welcome to SkandiHus -- Walthamstow!
Our founder, Stine Dulong, quit her corporate lawyer job in 2013 to become a full time potter. For her, clay was a gateway into transformation. Not only did it become her career, and change the structure of her life on the surface, but it fundamentally shifted who she is and how she perceives the world. She had tried yoga and meditation, but it never “clicked” for her. Yet through pottery, she found a way into a slower, more mindful and joyous way of existing.
