About the Course

This course covers all skills from hand building and wheel throwing, to surface decoration and glazing, and is suitable either for complete beginners or intermediate level makers. The course is structured so that each week focuses on a different technique, but we also place a lot of emphasis on time for practice and experimenting with clay. Click here to read our course structure and get an idea of what you might be doing each week. We hope that our students come away feeling like they have learnt some new skills, had fun, and hopefully made some new friends too.

The pace of the course is entirely down to you - if you are interested in a focused learning environment in which to advance your skills and learn some new techniques, then we can provide this for you through our professional and skilled team of teachers. Our classes can also be a great opportunity to meet new people, relax, drink tea, and indulge in some meditative making surrounded by plants and creative energy.

Materials

We will provide all materials throughout the course. Clay is charged at £5 per kg of clay you would like fired. All of our students use our buff stoneware clay, and have access to a full range of tools, slips, moulds, and use of our SkandiHus glazes, which are mixed in-house and used by our founder, Stine, for her own work.

See our range of glazes available.

What to Bring

Please bring clothes that can get dirty, creative energy and ideas!

We will send you our student handbook a few days prior to the start of the course, with all the information that you need to know. You are welcome to bring your own apron, or you can purchase a SkandiHus apron here. Please select ‘local pickup’ at checkout if you would like to avoid delivery fees and collect the apron in your first class.

What if I miss a class?

It is not a problem at all to miss a class or two throughout the course period. We ask that all students try their best to attend the first two sessions, as these are difficult to catch up on if missed, but we understand that you may have other commitments throughout the weeks, and your teacher will ensure that you are caught up on everything that you have missed when you return. Please note that we cannot accommodate students making up missed classes at other times, nor can we allow students to swap their classes once the course has started, because our classes run at full capacity.

Help us help the planet

We try to minimise waste and over-use of unsustainable materials at our studios, and it is really important to us to look after our planet. Here are a few ways that you could help us to help Mother Earth:

- We’ll give each student a piece of plastic and a board to wrap their work in at the beginning of the course. Please take good care of both of these as they’re part of your tool kit for the course. Reuse this plastic as much as possible throughout your course and only ask for new plastic if it becomes completely unusable (Mother Earth will thank you later).

- When returning to collect your fired work, please bring any newspaper or bubble wrap that you may have lying around at home to transport your pots safely.

Where

SkandiHus, Unit 4 Tilia Road, London, E5 8JP.

In the heart of beautiful Clapton, this studio is a short walk from Hackney Downs and Hackney Central, with great bus links to the city.

Refund Policy

All of our longer courses are exchangeable up until 28 days prior to the start of the course. After this, you are able to change your booking to a different course for a £20 admin fee. Please note that from 14 days prior to the start of the course, your booking is non-refundable and non-exchangeable.

Our refund policy is strict because it enables us to pay our staff a fair wage, and remain accessible as a studio. Each week we get 8-10 requests and if we were to accommodate each one, we would be forced to lower our staff wages or increase our prices - both of which we really want to avoid. We hope you understand that this is why there are no exemptions to our refund policies.
