    2-hour course: Modelling and potter tour

Between the matter you work and you, there are your hands are your main tools and directly shape the earth. Contact with clay frees the mind, loosens the body and facilitates breathing. In the hands of the craftsmen, this material responds to the impulses of the imagination.
Shaping beautiful in his hands provides immediate satisfaction and in the long term improves your morale. Pottery gives confidence and also develops communication because during the workshops, we are most of the time in a small group with which we can exchange, share ideas, and rub his creativity with those of others
The earth is the very essence of life. It is what carries us, what nourishes us, where nature grows… Working on it, shaping it, giving it a new meaning is therefore ultimately very symbolic: it is a true return to the roots, an introspection.

Fun, creative activity in industrial district - Three sisters and a brother run this pottery shop. Offered great instruction and ideas for objects to create. Clay we super easy to work with. Many implements for shaping and decorating pieces. Loved using the pottery wheel. Need many days of you want your piece fired.

100% Recommend - Great experience. Fun friendly, relaxing. Class starts with brief explanation of basic techniques and tools, left to your devices whilst instructors walk around and help out with advice. Then taken in turns to have a go on the wheel. Really great experience and lovely atelier. Would definitely recommend.

Fantastic workshop but choose your day carefully… - My husband and four boys (ages 10-17) joined the workshop, and they LOVED the experience! It was fun, engaging and relaxing, which made a nice break from the busyness of the city. The workshop is run at a location about 20 minutes in a taxi from the medina. It is two hours which gives you just enough time to make something special from clay using the wide selection of resources available. You should note that you will need to take your bowls etc away with you at the end of the class and have enough days to let them dry before your flight home. We had 36 hours from the workshop before we had to leave Marrakech but in that time half of their creations started to crack a little when they were air drying at the Riad and then these broke more on the way home :( …but the other half survived and they will be lovely to keep as a memory of our holiday.

Really messy but so much fun!! - Really cute setting inside, was a bit awkward to find as the taxi driver didn't know where it was but locals were very helpful. We got a detailed demo by a lovely hijabi sister both in English and French, made our own pieces and had a go on the spinning clay machine (yay!) I recommend wearing clothes you don't mind getting clay all over, it is messy but was a lot of fun!! Thank you

A nice time. - This wasn't exactly as I imagined but it was good. I had hoped to be closer to the sooks and with traditional handicrafters but this was not. First our driver could not find the location. We went around and around in circles and were half an hour late. They said they changed their location when I arrived but I am unsure this had anything to do with why we had a hard time locating it. It was well outside of the Medina/sook area. It was a very modern shop and did not explore any history of ceramics in Morrocco. They gave us ample time to create and helped quite a lot initially but then seemed to peter out with the help after a while. When it was time to use the pottery wheels it seemed rushed a quick and even less instruction. I was a little disappointed in how they presented a strong start but then seemed to trail off with help and interest as time went on. It was fun but expensive and really disconnected from Marrakech culture. This could have been a class in any city anywhere in the world. I wish it pulled more from the culture and was more of a cultural experience. I don't think they were deceptive, but rather my own expectations but I think it would be an excellent avenue for them to explore by making it more culturally relevant.

Miscommunication Led to Pottery never being shipped - After a somewhat fun experience there was some miscommunication on the payment required to get our pottery shipped to the states. When poor communication with final payment occurred, I reached out multiple times to rectify payment and settle the account so they could have a cleared account and we could have our pottery. They stopped communicating with me privately to solve this issue and send the pottery. But, this company did not find enough time to only reply to a review. It my hope that they, prioritize settling our pottery situation after this review; as it seems that reviews are the only thing they care about.
