Japanese Pottery Class: Wabi-sabi

Explore hand building techniques at this soothing ceramics class in London!



1.5 hours Class size 1 to 10     label £40

If you're searching for relaxing things to do in London, why not come and explore the art of Japanese pottery with these relaxing, interactive class for beginners?

Wabi-sabi, loosely translated, is the beauty of imperfection.
Learn fundamental hand-building techniques as you create a stunning ceramic wabi-sabi object from scratch. Your teacher will provide demonstrations and cover how you can use clay to deal with the stress and anxiety of everyday life and appreciate the states of flux and imperfection represented in your piece. You'll learn a range of pottery techniques including pinch pots, sculpting & surface decoration across the wabi-sabi theme. But that's not all, you’ll also glaze (add colour to your work). Finally, your handmade ceramics will then stay for firing in their on-site kiln and you’ll be invited to return a few weeks later to collect them.

All materials & tools are included to complete 1-2 finished pieces of ceramics per person across 1.5 hours.

You don’t need any experience, as your guide will be on hand with plenty of one-to-one support, letting you switch off from the world to focus entirely on yourself and follow your mind, body and spirit during the session.

At the end of this hand-building class in London, you'll have a beautiful piece of pottery, along with a new skill to continue developing in your own time!
