    Was an enjoyable experience where we learnt how to make our own bowl, mug & small pot. Had no prior experience, but Anja was a great and encouraging teacher which made the workshop go smoothly. I do recommend this workshop!

    I gifted this experience to my friend for her birthday and we really enjoyed it. In your private lesson Anja talks you clearly through step by step which is really good if you are a beginner like we were. Overall it was a fun experience and we took away 3 beautiful pieces.

    Me and my girlfriend came for the experience for her 21st birthday and I couldn’t recommend it more! It was fantastic and anja was so accommodating. We had an absolute laugh and it was so much fun. And in the end we have some bowls and mugs that we were proud of! Hats off to anja for being so great to us and keeping us happy. What a fantastic experience!
