I’m very lucky that the pottery classes allow me to spend time with  lovely, supportive, kind and creative people. Here are some testimonials from the wonderful pottery people who attend pottery classes and thoroughly enjoy themselves!

The pottery classes are a chance to loose the cares of the week in an atmosphere of work, fun and relaxation. Rachel is able to bring out in people unrealised artistic skills using a blend of teaching, guidance and encouragement. This enables each person to explore a range of pottery techniques. This is a life experience not to be missed!

I started pottery classes having just moved to a new area and not knowing anyone… everyone was very friendly and welcoming. Rachel is a great teacher and classes can be as creative or as guided as you want. There is something very calming and therapeutic about working with clay… and there’s tea and biscuits!

Rachel creates a wonderfully relaxing and inclusive environment where I have been able to develop my confidence as a potter, as well as make new friends. I’ve loved every minute of it!

  2. Throwing a pot experience
    Thank you Rachel. What an amazing morning we had. I never thought I’d leave with one pot let alone two. The experience was inspiring and would thoroughly recommend. We will be back for more! Rachel really does put you at ease and I agree with other comments it is very therapeutic.

    1. Thank you so much for leaving such lovely positive feedback – I didn’t know I had the facility to leave comments on my website!! You were all amazing and I look forward to seeing you again. Rachel

  3. Thank you Rachel for my 6 weeks of Friday morning ‘therapy’, which I thoroughly enjoyed. Whilst experimenting with clay and glazes, drinking coffee and eating biscuits, I also managed to meet some friendly local potters (and Pirates!), which was nice for me as I’m new to the area.
    I picked up lots of tips and techniques which I will be taking back to my pottery lessons at a local special school.
