We took their 2 hour spin class, this is a well constructed class. They'll help you sculpt a cup and a bowl. They provide all the materials/tools needed and also glaze the final product. We get to choose the color of the final product which will be ready in about 4 weeks.

Instructors were great! The main instructor taught well and was very patient and deliberate with her techniques. The assistant instructor was great at answering questions and helping with next steps. Everyone in the class made two pieces and it was just really cool and fun. I highly recommend checking out a class!
