So You Can |
One Evening a Week, Just For You EVEN IF You've Never Touched Clay Before
Dinner Plates
Week 1 Never touched clay? Worried you'll make a mess or look silly? You're in the right spot. Plates look intimidating, but after 24 years of teaching beginners, I promise they're the easiest place to start. With my simple 5P's method, I'll guide you step-by-step to shape a beautiful dinner plate in just one 2-hour session — zero talent or experience required.
Mugs
Week 2 Think that plate was beginner's luck? It wasn't. Week 2 is where your hands start to trust the process. You'll shape a simple cup — small enough to feel doable, satisfying enough to make you smile. This is the session where the clay stops feeling foreign and the quiet calm kicks in. No rushing. No comparing. Your pace is exactly right.
Bowl
Week 3 Starting to feel like you might actually relax into this? That's not an accident — my PottersPulse Method is designed to help beginners feel calm from day one. In Week 3 you'll shape a simple, beautiful bowl — the one a guest picks up and asks "where's this from?" and you get to say: I made it. Don't worry if you've missed a session by now. Life happens. Just pick up where you left off or book a make-up session.
Flower Vase
Week 4 Remember when you worried you'd just make a mess? That feels like a long time ago now. Week 4 is where you stretch a little — a small vase, a taller cup, or a mug with a handle. Something that would have terrified you on day one but now feels like the obvious next step. This is the week you stop trying pottery and start feeling it all click into place.
Decoration
Week 5 Five weeks ago you'd never touched clay. Now you've got a plate, a cup, a bowl and more — all made with your own hands. This week you'll decorate and finish your pieces, ready to be dried and sent to the kiln. Your finished collection will be ready to collect a few weeks later — along with proof that you can step into the unknown and completely surprise yourself.
We Do It All
We professionally fire, glaze and make food-safe. From clay to table, your handmade pieces are designed to be cherished and used for years to come.
A Weekly Ritual You'll Actually Look Forward to Without Needing to be 'Arty'

Five weeks from now, you'll have handmade pottery to take home and enjoy with friends, a quiet mind, and a weekly creative ritual to look forward to.
But first, you have to give yourself permission to carve out some time for yourself.
Right now, the weeks can disappear into emails, to-do lists, and evenings that all blur together.
You save the reel. You tell yourself you'll make time soon. But "soon" rarely comes.
Instead, imagine giving yourself one evening a week to slow down, use your hands, and focus on something that leaves you feeling grounded, calm, and centred.
More Than Just Pottery:
What This 5-Week Space Does For You
- Feel Calm: One evening a week that's just yours to slow down. If you fall behind, there’s no failure; you simply pick up at the next week or do a make-up session.
- Feel Grounded: Use your hands to work with clay and pull your mind completely into the present moment.
- Feel Proud: Walk away with finished pieces you made yourself and actually use at home.
- Feel Connected: Learn alongside warm, friendly people in a relaxed, supportive studio space.
- Feel Rested: Creative time that fills you up, leaving you refreshed instead of drained.
Five weeks to slow down, create with your hands, and feel like yourself again.

Over 198 Hobart Beginners + Real Results
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“For the first time, I’m not worried about being a perfectionist… I’m loving it. I've fallen in love with pottery and I just look forward to every week.”
“I usually arrive at the studio with a racing mind after a chaotic day of work. But the second I sit down and get my hands into the clay, all that background noise just fades away. You can’t be glued to your phone or stressing over tomorrow’s to-do list when you’re centering at the wheel. It has become my favorite weekly reset”
“I actually scoped out the studio first to see if it looked judgy. It's the opposite — nobody's watching your wheel, everyone's super encouraging. First time in years I didn't feel evaluated”
“I joined because I was feeling stuck in a rut and burnt out. These weekly classes became my sacred sanctuary and gave me something to look forward to in my life. I never thought I’d be someone who could create beautiful pottery, but now my favorite soup bowl is one I made with my own two hands. Ness is a really great teacher, really.”
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “One evening a week in clay completely changed how the rest of my week felt.”
“I went with my daughter. We loved it. It’s incredibly fun and just can't stop.”

Walk in and the first thing you'll notice isn't the pottery wheels — it's the sound. Laughter. Chatter. The clink of mugs of tea.
This isn't an art class. It's a small, welcoming space built for beginners — because everyone here started exactly where you are: clueless, a little nervous, and secretly hoping they don't make a mess of their first pot.
