"What a great afternoon - Rowena was a super friendly and talented tutor. She made us complete novices feel very confident on the wheel as she explained every step thoroughly. A really enjoyable class and we managed to make 2 pots each! Thanks Rowena! 😁"

"We both absolutely loved this course - 2 hours of bliss, giggles and concentration! Thank you for providing us with a truly memorable morning, the session was well-divided between teaching/demo, hands-on, a comfort pause, and a successful outcome (well, we'll see when our jugs and bowls are fired and collected!;))"

Paddock Studio Pottery responded:

"Hello Dan, thankyou for taking the time to write a review for me. Very pleased you both had a good time. I'll do my best glazing and firing your great pots. I'll be back in touch when they are completed. Bye for now Rowena "

Rosemary reviewed: Pottery taster courses in the South Downs

"My husband and I thought we would try something different together and being Great Pottery Throw Down fans, we decided to give it a go! We had a wonderful few hours with Rowena, such a lovely lady, who demonstrated making a bowl and then guiding us through each step with many laughs along the way to make a couple of bowls each. Looking forward to collecting our works of art in a couple of weeks after they have been fired and glazed with colours of our choice. If you are wondering whether to give it a go, DO IT…it’s the best thing we have done in ages."

"Just completed another pottery course with Rowena. I treated my friend for her birthday last year , we had such fun we decided to throw clay again. Rowena is an amazing teacher and we plan to return . Can't recommend it enough."

Tanya reviewed: Pottery taster courses in the South Downs

"I had a few hours with Rowena and they were exceptionally useful. As a potter who wanted to improve, Rowena guided me without taking over which helped me enormously with confidence. The session was really enjoyable and relaxed and we packed a lot in, going at my own pace. Rowena is so easy to get along with and is happy to answer no end of questions! Highly recommend. "

"Oh my gosh! The best couple of hours I have spent in ages! Rowena was fantastic, very patient and knowledgeable. She talked us through every step. We will return to pick up our pots during the Lewes arts festival, can't wait! I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to give pottery a go. "

"The 2 hours flew by and we had so much fun. Rowena is a great teacher and we had a lot of laughs. Very satisfying to end up with a couple of handmade bowls. "

Holly reviewed: Pottery taster courses in the South Downs

"We had a fantastic afternoon with Rowena - she explained everything brilliantly, helped us through each stage of making our bowls and we’re now looking forward to seeing the final results after they’ve been dried etc. It was an afternoon of laughs - the quote of the day being “it’s so much harder when you’re moist …”. I wholeheartedly recommend booking this course."

"Fantastic morning spent with Rowena. My husband and I wanted to give this a go after watching the great pottery throw down on tv. We both really enjoyed it and I think we'll be back for more. We made 3 bowls each and look forward to seeing them once they are ready. Rowena is lovely and friendly and was so good at quickly rectifying any mistakes we made. "

"Would definitely recommend this taster course. Rowena is an excellent tutor/potter she guided us through various techniques using the Potters Wheel. Being total beginners it was really useful to have the private 2 to 1 tuition and we managed to produce several items (with varying degrees of success!). You leave your makes with Rowena who finishes and glazes (your choice of glaze) for you. Excellent value for money, fun, interesting & a great experience. Thanks Rowena! "
