About Pottery Classes & Workshops
I run The Potter's Place as a space where anyone can slow down, get their hands messy, and just enjoy the process of making with clay. Here, it’s not about perfect pots - it’s about the stories, the laughs, and the little wins along the way.
What We Offer
- If you’re new, our beginner pottery workshop called 'Play with Clay' is a chill, hands-on way to try out clay for the first time. No pressure, just fun. We keep groups small so everyone gets attention.
- For those wanting more, we have regular classes in both wheel throwing and hand-building pottery class. You can start as a total beginner or join if you already know a bit.
- Kids clay art sessions run during holidays and weekends. These are playful, creative, and all about letting kids explore.
- We also do special workshops on things like sculpting or surface decoration, sometimes with guest artists.
- Got a group? We host team building pottery activity sessions for offices or friends who want a creative day out.
Studio Vibe
Our studio in HSR Layout is open, sunny, and full of positive energy. You’ll find people chatting, helping each other, and just enjoying the break from daily routine. Every piece you make goes through the full process here - from shaping to glazing to firing - and you take home something real, made by you.
If you’re looking for a place to unwind, learn, and just be part of a friendly community, you’ll fit right in here.

My Story
Hey, I’m Bhavya. Life’s been a wild ride, ya. My family, Prady, and my crazy fur babies keep me going. Clay came into my life and honestly, patience was not my thing, but now? I’m learning. Building a space in Coorg opened up a new kind of peace for me - just trees, air, and quiet. Whether it’s the hustle of Bangalore or chill Coorg, I’m just here for the journey, one messy hand at a time.
