Build your wheel skills with us!

If you’re ready for more than a one-night class, this is where you start to build real skill.

Our courses and skill-focused classes are designed to help you improve over time, whether you’re just getting comfortable on the wheel or working on specific forms like bowls and cylinders.

Book a 4 week course

If you’ve taken a one-time class and left wanting more, or you’re ready to pick up a new skill and stick with it, this course gives you the time and structure to actually learn the wheel.

Over four weeks, you’ll build real skills through repetition and practice. You’ll learn how to center, open, and pull forms, then start shaping more intentional pieces like bowls and cylinders.

Each session builds on the last, so instead of starting over every time, you’ll see real progress week to week.

You’ll make multiple pieces along the way, learning what works, what doesn’t, and how to improve each time you sit down at the wheel.

By the end of the course, you’ll leave with up to 8 finished pieces and a foundation you can keep building on.

We keep classes small so you get plenty of hands-on guidance, whether you’re continuing from a first class or starting fresh.

This isn’t about trying it once.
It’s about actually learning how to do it.

Any class starting after 4pm is BYOB. Guests 21+ may bring beverages in accordance with our BYOB policy.

No experience needed. All materials included.
