A MORE PERSONAL WAY TO LEARN
Searching for ceramics classes in London can mean choosing between large group workshops, one-off taster sessions and long college-style courses. Anat's studio offers something more personal: focused pottery tuition in a peaceful South Ealing garden studio, with time to ask questions, practise and understand what you are doing.
Whether you want to try wheel throwing for the first time, build pottery by hand, enjoy a creative experience with someone special, or follow a structured multi-week course, there is a route designed around the way you want to learn.
WHAT MAKES THE STUDIO DIFFERENT
CHOOSE YOUR EXPERIENCE
Start with a single session or take a deeper four-week journey. Each option gives you real studio time and personal guidance, not just a demonstration.
A 2.5-hour 1:1 private session completely tailored to your skill level. Perfect for any level, you’ll receive dedicated guidance on either throwing or hand-building. We’ll focus on what you want to learn, and your finished pieces will be glazed and fired after class.
A 2.5-hour private pottery session for two, designed for all skill levels. Learn the basics of wheel-throwing side by side, with hands-on guidance throughout. Your finished pieces will be glazed and fired after class.
A deeper dive into the full process of wheel throwing, trimming, decorating, and glazing. Four sessions of 2.5 hours each, with personal 1:1 guidance throughout.
A four-week private course moving from raw clay to finished pottery. Master the fundamentals of pinching, coiling, and slab-building to create, decorate and glaze your own unique collection – guided at your own pace.
WHEEL THROWING CLASSES LONDON
Wheel throwing is one of the most satisfying parts of ceramics, but it takes patient guidance to understand centering, opening, pulling walls and shaping a form. In Anat's private sessions you get time on the wheel, correction as you work, and the chance to build confidence at your own pace.
If you want a first taste, the private single session is a strong place to begin. If you want to understand the full process from raw clay to finished glazed work, the four-week Throwing Journey follows the complete cycle step by step.

Not every ceramics class needs a potter's wheel. Hand-building gives you a direct, tactile way to work with clay using pinching, coiling and slab techniques. It is ideal for creating expressive, functional pieces while developing an intuitive feel for the material.
The four-week Hand-Building Journey takes you through construction, refinement, decoration and glazing, so you finish with a small collection that reflects your own ideas and style.

A CREATIVE EXPERIENCE FOR TWO
Pottery for 2 is a private 2.5-hour ceramics experience for couples, friends or family. You learn side by side, make your own pieces and leave the studio with the feeling that you have shared something genuinely creative — not just another night out.
ABOUT ANAT
Anat is the maker behind Anat Handmade Pottery. Her work is rooted in handmade ceramics — pieces shaped slowly, finished thoughtfully and made to be lived with. The same approach carries into her teaching: patient, practical and focused on helping each person understand the process rather than simply copying a finished object.
Classes take place in her South Ealing garden studio, creating a quieter and more personal learning environment than a large shared workshop. That means more attention, more time to practise and a class that can adapt to your confidence and goals.
