Jane Hudson reviewed: Dorset weekly pottery classes

"I love Rachel's pottery classes. The group is lively and fun and very supportive, and I would love to do it every day if I had the time. Even though I am a real novice to the Art she never makes me feel I have nothing to contribute and I have been very pleased with the pieces I have produced. I look forward to learning more and hopefully getting more proficient!"

Rachel Fooks Ceramics responded:

"Thank Jane... you are already very proficient! Looking forward to the new term."

Philip reviewed: Dorset weekly pottery classes

"Dear reader, Just sign up for this course. Nothing beats the magic of making pots and ceramic sculptures in Rachel Fooks' classes. Rachel is a gifted teacher and inspires great creativity. Sometimes form leads to function. There is nothing more pleasurable than drinking tea from jugs, teapots, cups and mugs you have made yourself. Sometimes form leads to sculptural aesthetics. I have a number of pots on the bookshelf and in the garden that I just enjoy looking at. Rachel’s workshop is a lovely light space where you work in an artists community surrounded by inspiration and considerable talent. Dear reader you’ve read too much...sign up for the course!"

"I joined this pottery class last year and have loved every minute of it. In fact, I get withdrawal symptoms when the classes aren't on. I've made some wonderful pieces with Rachel's help, she is a brilliant teacher and we all have so much fun. Thoroughly recommend."

"As a first time potter I have loved attending Furzebrook Studios and Rachel's workshops, first learning the various hand-building techniques and now experimenting to develop my own style with advice always on hand."
