A faster-paced wheel-throwing series for teens ready to move past basic bowls into mugs, vases, and altered forms. Instructors give one-on-one corrections as skills build week to week. Most teens leave with four or five finished, glazed pieces.

Two different instructors in one month made it hard to build any momentum. Hoping it's just a rough patch because the concept is great.
I was nervous he would lose interest but it's been the opposite. He made a hand-built pinch pot and he wouldn't stop talking about it. My older one has practice next door so this timing works out perfectly for us.
The class felt pretty chaotic with that many kids and just one instructor. Still better than nothing for our schedule, so we're sticking with it for now.
Best class we've found in the Valley, hands down. He made a glazed mug used every morning since and he wouldn't stop talking about it. Already signed up for the next session.
This has become the highlight of her week, no contest. She made a glazed mug used every morning since and she wouldn't stop talking about it.
Julian has been counting down to Monday every single week. He made a wobbly first bowl off the wheel and he wouldn't stop talking about it. Already signed up for the next session.
Mostly good experience so far. It can run a little disorganized when the group is at very different skill levels. Miss Priya is nice but the pacing has felt off the last couple sessions.
We've been coming since last fall and the difference in confidence is obvious. She made a hand-built pinch pot and she wouldn't stop talking about it. Mr. Devon is wonderful with her whole group.
