Improvers Throwing with Ben Dodd

Level 2 Improvers

Designed to follow on from our 6 week Beginners Throwing courses, our Throwing Improvers course is a taught programme aimed at those who want to consolidate their basic skill to develop their throwing.

Over the six weeks Ben will show you how to improve your centring so you can learn to throw larger amounts of clay. This is fundamental as the focus is on throwing  more complex shapes, for example ‘bellying out’ a cylinder, or making a lid.

Ben will introduce each week’s session and give a demonstration of what you will be covering.  The rest of the session you will practice and making your own thrown pieces. Ben will guide you and give feedback on your work informally during the session.

Prices for courses include all tuition and facilities.

All finished work is charged at £8 per kilo for S/W of fired work, which  includes clay, decorating slips, glazes and bisque/glaze firings.

*Please be advised that you will struggle to work with clay and throw on a wheel with long  nails!!!
