Wheel Throwing

What you'll do

Try your hand at wheel throwing with someone close to you and enjoy an intimate pottery-making experience in London with this ceramics workshop. You and your pottery-making partner will finish up your class with two ceramic pieces each to take home.

This is a truly immersive private pottery workshop and a wonderful gift experience. Bring along a family member, partner, or friend and learn to make pottery as a duo.

You will both have exclusive use of the pottery studio, and you'll receive personal tuition from your teacher to help you make something wonderful. Try this pottery class as an anniversary gift for your loved one, for a special intimate birthday party idea, or as a fun day out in London with a family member or friend.

Guided by an experienced teacher, you'll be shown how to wedge your clay before moving onto the pottery wheel. You will then be taken through the process of centring, opening, and pulling up the walls of your pot.

At the end of the session, you will each have two lovely pots which will be trimmed on the wheel for you, at the leather hard stage, and then fired and glazed in our studio white. Your pots will be ready for collection around three weeks after your pottery-making class.

Each person will make two lovely pots each to keep.

Sak Beh Studio Pottery was founded by Tessa Robinson, who lives and works in London. Her idea was to create a comfortable, homey place to work and be creative. Situated in a very busy and central location, just off Stoke Newington High Street, the studio is a drop of calm in a very fast moving world.

Tessa trained in Fine Art, specialising in sculpture (modelling in clay). On completion of a three year Post Graduate Course at the Royal Academy of Arts, Tessa set up a studio in Hackney. The transition from sculptor to potter came many years later whilst doing doctoral research in Maya archaeology at UCL. Inspired by Maya ceramic art, and in particular the pots which combined sculpted and painted imagery, Tessa moved from research back to making. After attending courses in pottery and taking up a membership at a London pottery studio, she set up Sak Beh Pottery and is now a full-time potter and maker.

Tessa's works are informed by both her Fine Art training and her research into Ancient Maya ceramic art. The phrase 'Sak Beh' can be found on Ancient Maya monuments where it refers to the Milky Way as an ancestral path or road as well as the physical roads which connect people to places. In keeping with its namesake, Sak Beh Pottery is envisaged as a place for community interaction within the context of a creative journey.
