It was really fun!! Everyone was super nice and showed us the technology and then had them do it ourselves, just corrected it. That was really great. We've never done anything like this before but got in quickly.

The three of us took a pottery course in which we made 3 pieces each under guidance. It was great fun for us and we were accompanied every step of the way by the friendly employees. We then glazed our pieces. We got our money's worth and felt super comfortable! The course was also suitable for us beginners.

My girlfriend and I took an entry-level course and had a great time. We were able to produce several workpieces according to our ideas under the guidance of Bülent. We learned a lot about pottery and glazing in a relaxed atmosphere and were able to be creative. I am very happy to recommend the studio to others! Thank you Bülent 😊

I took a pottery wheel course. Bülent helped me through the initial difficulties with a lot of patience and support. He manages to convey a very special atmosphere of peace. At the last appointment I wanted to create a vase using a different technique, that was no problem either. The results turned out great. Thank you so much!
