Testimonials:

"Dear Krystyna, We had SUCH a wonderful time, thank you so much…it was a perfect way to spend the afternoon."

Clare

"Krystyna was very welcoming and made me feel very comfortable. Krystyna guides you through the process of pottery without taking over and allows you to create your own pieces with lots of positive encouragement.
Absolutely loved the course and it has inspired me to continue at home with her ongoing help"
Kim

"My husband and I both very much enjoyed our 'Clay Experience'. We are both pottery novices but Krystyna was very patient and explained everything clearly. By the end of the session we had both produced pots that we were proud of. If you are a beginner and looking for a 'pottery taster' this is an ideal experience." Joan

"The clay experience was really informative. It included throwing on the wheel and hand building, both of which were really interesting. I would recommend this as a prelude to further classes." Belinda

“We spent two hours with Krystyna on Saturday and what a fabulous two hours we had. Krystyna is so knowledgeable and patient, I’m the least creative person ever and with her help I made something resembling a plate and a vase. Worth every penny! Thank you”. Ian & Kira.
