 This Isn't Just a Course. It's a Commitment

Did the 'First Touch of Clay' ignite a spark? Now, it's time to transform that curiosity into a lifelong skill.

Welcome to The Potter's Wheel Journey—a systematic, foundational course designed for the passionate beginner. This is no longer about simple pinching and shaping. This is a deep dialogue between you, the spinning wheel, and the soft clay—a dance of focus, force, and balance.

These seven meticulously structured lessons are your map. They will guide you through the complete process, from a formless lump of clay to a finished vessel. Every step is an exercise in mindfulness; every success is a mark of your growing craftsmanship.

Lesson Core Subject What You'll Master
1 Centering the Clay The "heartbeat" of pottery: Learn to feel and control the force to anchor your clay.
2 Pulling a Cylinder Giving the clay "height": Master the technique of evenly pulling the walls upward.
3 Throwing a Bowl Creating "space": Learn to gracefully expand the walls outward from a cylinder base.
4 Trimming a Cylinder The art of refinement: Use trimming tools to create a clean, professional foot for your piece.
5 Trimming a Bowl Perfecting the form: Master the techniques for trimming a bowl to give it lightness and elegance.
6 Altering into a Mug Giving it "personality": Skillfully shape a basic form into the beginnings of a mug.
7 Attaching a Handle The final "handshake": Learn to pull and securely attach a handle to complete a functional piece.
