This open-level course is designed to support both beginners and more experienced students. Those new to the wheel will receive step-by-step instruction to build core skills, while returning students can focus on refining technique, exploring surface decoration, and developing their own creative voice. Instruction is tailored to individual goals, allowing each student to progress at their own pace.
Classes include instructor demonstrations, guided practice, and individualized feedback. Emphasis is placed on developing technical skills alongside a deeper understanding of the material, helping students build confidence and consistency on the wheel over time.
