My workshops are about the messy, tactile joy of clay—whether we're pinching pots or throwing on the wheel, the goal is to switch off, get your hands dirty, and let the clay guide the way. You’ll leave with your own handmade piece, but I hope you also leave with a little more calm. ### Why Choose Pottery? I started these sessions because I know how much we all need to pause. In a city like Bengaluru, life moves fast. When you sit at the wheel or work a slab of clay, you have to slow down. Clay doesn't respond well to rushing. It requires patience, presence, and a willingness to embrace the wobbles. ### What to Expect in the Studio I offer two main ways to learn: * **The 1-Day 'Clayful' Session:** Perfect if you're curious but short on time. We focus on hand-building techniques like pinching or slab work. You'll make something small—a mug, a plate, or a spoon—and get to paint it right there. It’s an easy, low-pressure introduction to the medium. * **The 10-Day Deep Dive:** If you really want to understand how clay works, this is for you. We go end-to-end, covering the basics of wheel-throwing, trimming, and glazing. It’s a complete experience designed to help you get comfortable with the material and find your own style. ### Can Beginners Join? Absolutely. My HSR Layout studio is built for newbies. I don't care about perfection; I care about you enjoying the process. Whether you come with a friend for a date, or solo to have some 'me time,' the vibe is always relaxed. We use food-safe, high-quality clay, and all tools are provided. You just need to bring your enthusiasm and maybe an apron if you're worried about getting muddy (though that's half the fun!). If you've been searching for a hobby that helps you de-stress and reconnect with your creativity, this is where you start. ## About Maati Sona I’m Arunima. I started Maati Sona in 2018 right before I became a mom, so I know exactly how much you need a break! I run these workshops to share the 'slow living' magic I find in clay—it’s just you, the mud, and a chance to make something uniquely yours.
