STANDARD CLASSES AT TON
Learning to throw takes time. It’s not a race, not a competition… maybe it’s more like a dance composed of two steps forward and one step back.
… and this is why we offer our standard classes.
The TON Taster Sessions are designed to give you an idea of what it feels like to work on the wheel. If you love it, come back. If not, well then at least you know and you can move on to other things…
Our 8 Weeks of Throwing, however, allow you to dive a little deeper. Over the course of weeks (maybe even months or years) you will get a chance to familiarise yourself with some of the processes and techniques employed when making functional, wheel-thrown pots - from throwing to trimming, pulling handles, assembling etc. And if you’re having a bad day and nothing’s going as you would like it to (two steps forward, one step back)? Don’t worry, there’s always next week.
TON Taster Sessions
If you want to try your hand at making pots on the wheel without a major commitment, this is for you. Taster sessions are held on a regular basis, each participant will have their own wheel and will receive tuition and clay for two hours.
Please note that throwing is just the first of many necessary steps in the making process and there is simply not enough time to see a pot from start to finish in two hours. Therefore, we will not fire any pots after taster sessions. The clay from your pots will be reclaimed for later use.
Priority will be given to newcomers!
