Introduction to handbuilding with Clay

Classes begin with a soft landing: time to arrive, breathe, and connect to the moment. After a short introduction of your experience and connection with clay, you’ll be guided through handbuilding methods like pinching, coiling, or working with slabs, always with room for your own ideas and personal expression.

From practical objects like plant pots or incense holders to symbolic pieces like amulets or abstract forms, the focus is on creative flow rather than perfection.

These classes are rooted in the belief that everyone can create, and that working with clay can be both joyful and transformative. You’ll leave not only with a unique handmade piece, but also with a sense of calm, connection, and creative confidence.

Welcome to Casstle of Clay, where clay becomes a medium for stories, emotions, and community.

This handbuilding course is open to everyone, no experience needed! Whether you're new to clay or have worked with it before, the workshop offers a welcoming space to explore and create. I’ll guide you step by step through the entire process, with support tailored to your level, so you can feel confident, inspired, and free to express yourself.
