Real Beginners - Real Results

I'm Ness

24+ Years Teaching Beginners

I'm Ness, the founder of Tas Pottery Workshops.

My journey began after facing life in a wheelchair — pottery became my path to self-healing, and thankfully, to walking again.

That experience shaped my philosophy of living life to the fullest and getting through the adventures of life's with a sense of humor.

The Studio

81 Warwick St
(Between Murray St & Elizabeth St)

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 between hands still dusty with clay.

This isn't a sterile 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.

Real People - 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 love each week.”

    

Maria, Taroona

“Going alone to a room full of stranger felt like a lot. I emailed twice asking if it would be weird showing up solo. It wasn't - by week 2 I had people to sit with. I never once felt like the odd one out." 

Diane, Glenorchy 

“I actually scoped out the studio first to see if it looked judgy. I was so excited. I was looking forward to it for weeks. I had to make up a few classes because of work but that was fine.”

What is 'the zone'

The first step isn't forcing the clay to be centred. It's using your breath. Because being relaxed doesn't create "the zone"—it's a trainable skill.
The same technique Olympic athletes, musicians, and ballet dancers master.
And it takes just 4 minutes.

Great potters & HRV

Ever wonder why the masters make it look so effortless? It's HRV — heart rate variability — the same science elite performers use to stay calm under pressure, now measurable with a smartwatch you probably already own. No hippy-woo. Just data, and a method that works.

Helping relaxation

No matter how stressed, frustrated, or "not-a-natural" you've felt at the wheel before — that ends here. Once you know how to use HRV to drop into calm on command, pottery stops being a fight with the clay and finally becomes the relaxing hobby you signed up for.
