If you would like to learn the basics of pottery or want to refresh your existing knowledge, this course is for you!
This course includes four classes over four consecutive weeks. It is aimed at complete beginners or those with some basic knowledge of ceramics. Under the guidance of your experienced tutor, you will focus on throwing on the potter’s wheel, pulling handles, turning, glazing, decorating and
firing.
All the requisite tools and materials you need are provided for you during each session, and your tutor will be on hand throughout to provide tips and guidance to make sure you're heading in the right direction.
By the end of the course, everyone will have created finished pieces to take home with them.
Pottery is all about practising, so upon finishing this course you can come back and practise at my studio for a £4 / hour price, or you can rent my portable potter's wheel for £20/week.
Please note that our four-week courses start on mutually agreed dates. So, if you can't find a public date, you can also apply by requesting a private class.

My name is Mihaly Herczeg and I am an entrepreneur, maker, who likes experiments and challenges at the same time. I fell in love with clay, especially with porcelain when I started to learn throwing.
After years of practicing and playing, I designed and made all of the tableware in my restaurant, at The Rosemary. Throwing is like being in your self-made world. I realised that many people would like to have this experience with the clay. I have started to teach during the pandemic and I enjoyed that as much as the throwing itself.
I can offer a taster session or a beginner course, which includes 4lessons and takes you through making basic shapes, finishing, glazing and firing too. My classes are different than others because is a small class with max. 7 people and I can give you all the help, tips, correcting mistakes, what I made before (for example: breathing well is crucial at throwing). Also, if you sign up for any of my classes, you will be a part of the thrower students online hub, which can help you to be motivated, inspired and following each other progress.
As both a teacher and studio owner, it's crucial for me to provide young pottery artists with opportunities to gain practical teaching experience. That's why, in January, I welcomed Jago Rushton, a Cornish Ceramic Designer studying at Central Saint Martins School of Art, to join my studio. Inspired by Moroccan geometry and ancient Roman and Greek pottery, Jago brings a contemporary flair to his work. His passion lies in sharing his skills and nurturing others' appreciation for this remarkable art form.
