The bright and charming setting guarantees a true moment of relaxation in the heart of the Faidherbe village (11th arrondissement). Whether you are a beginner or already experienced, you can learn to shape, throw, or hand-build, at your own pace.
Classes designed for all levels and all rhythms
Our pottery classes are for everyone: students, professionals, retirees, families. Groups are limited to three participants to allow for personalized guidance.
The pottery initiation class offers a first approach: centering, hollowing, raising, smoothing. The goal is to learn the basics without pressure.
While the wheel-throwing initiation workshop is the most popular, a hand-building initiation class is also offered—less technical than wheel-throwing, but just as creative.
To progress further, you can then take the advanced wheel-throwing initiation course. This workshop allows you to experiment with different techniques of both throwing and glazing.
For a fully personalized training, private or couple’s wheel-throwing sessions with Chentar are also available.

In the heart of the 11th arrondissement, the studio is located at the back of a flowered courtyard. It is a welcoming place, with stone walls, oak furniture, and shelves filled with creations in progress. Light abounds and the atmosphere remains peaceful. The ambiance is friendly and conducive to concentration.
The studio is open every day by appointment.

As for the price of pottery classes, it naturally varies according to the degree of personalization. It takes into account the average price of pottery classes in Paris, but also the quality of the equipment, the studio, and the teaching.
