## About Join a Pottery Workshop

You don't need any prior experience to join these sessions. I keep my groups small so I can guide you personally, whether we are hand-building a Ganesha idol or using the wheel to throw your first bowl. It is less about perfection and more about the therapeutic joy of working with clay.

My studio in HSR Layout is designed for exactly that—slowing down. Pottery is a tactile, grounding experience, and I believe everyone has a bit of creativity waiting to be unlocked if they just give themselves the permission to make a mess.

### What we cover in our workshops

- **Hand-building:** This is great for beginners. We use techniques like pinching, coiling, and slab work to create functional decor like mugs, bowls, or festive sculptures. It is the best way to understand how the clay moves and reacts to your touch.
- **Wheel-throwing:** If you want to learn the classic pottery experience, we spend time on the wheel. It requires a bit more focus, but there is a specific rhythm to centering clay that many find incredibly calming.
- **Festive Specials:** Throughout the year, I host themed sessions, like making your own Ganesha for the festival season or hand-painting ornaments for Christmas. These are perfect if you want to create something meaningful for your home.

### How the sessions work

I offer everything from one-day 'clayful' dates to comprehensive 10-day courses for those who want a deeper dive into the craft. I provide the clay and all the tools you need—just come ready to get your hands dirty. We keep the atmosphere chill because my philosophy is that art should be an escape from the daily rush, not another task on your to-do list.
