Bentham Pottery

We really enjoyed our half day pottery course. Lee is a friendly, knowledgeable and enthusiastic teacher. The class is conducted in a relaxed manner, with small numbers so that each stage is repeated and everyone is attended to. By the end of this short course you will be able to centre the clay on the wheel, draw it up and create a bowl all by yourself. You will have a great sense of achievement. Thoroughly recommend.

My partner and I have just got back after participating in a 4 hour course will Lee. It was absolutely brilliant. As the courses only have 4 people you get a lot of Lees time. The way Lee teaches is brilliant and very laid back and informative. Working the clay is mesmerising as well. I managed to turn out a passable bowl after my class, they say beauty is in the eye of the beholder! The point is that I didnt even think that I would get the clay to stay on the wheel never mind actually produce something. In short, if you want to try and new skill, and maybe develop a new hobby I can recommend starting it with Lee and Bentham Pottery.

Had a terrific afternoon today being taught how to throw a pot! Actually managed to make a bowl nearly without help and I'm a complete beginner. Very well explained and encouraged to progress. Would definitely recommend this course.
