Review Body: I brought my parents for this pottery class and it was such a beautiful experience! June (not sure whether I spelled her name correctly) was such a lovely instructor. She was clear in her instructions and she was very patient with us! We were very thankful to have her patching up our final product. She also mentioned "embrace the imperfection" of our products. How true!

Review Body: Overall experience was pleasant. Fangqi was very helpful and readily gives advice and suggestions.
Only feedback is the location got a little too warm at the tail end of the class.
Will definitely consider another class!

Review Body: It was a really great family experience.
I came with my 2 boys so felt like we needed a bit more assistance during the process and we ended up getting a lot of assistance at the end but we wanted to try it all ourselves
