I have long wanted to go to the pottery school for a master class, the choice fell on the Bell, a beautiful studio with its own atmosphere✨ In general, I liked everything at the master class, there were six people, all about the same age, and everyone was equally short of time, two hours is not enough. We made plates (two). They called a month after the lesson and said that one of my products cracked after the stove ((They offered either to choose a new one or to rewrite and redo (and wait a month again)
In general, I felt sad, after all, a certain meaning was invested there, and I still have a lot of time to wait, the new year will already pass, so I chose the finished product.

A cozy, comfortable studio consisting of several fairly spacious halls, competent teaching methods in an accessible language, provide all the necessary materials and tools. A great place for yourself with the opportunity to organize your own holiday here.

An amazing workshop -school! I am very glad that I chose them among similar "establishments". From the threshold you fall into friendly hands: from the administrator at the entrance to the last minutes of the master class! Having a good time or celebrating a birthday is a great idea! A competent, understandable explanation, demonstration, work with both children and people who are quite mature. Products are given out quickly, beautifully designed already! I sincerely recommend it and we will come back ourselves!

We went to the MK with bowls for pets.
1) There were 4 people on the MK: two adults and two preschool children. I have nothing against children, but it is obvious that such a combination leads to irregular group work, uneven distribution of time, attention and additional difficulties for both the teacher and the visitors of the MK. It is clear that they "molded" a group of those who were there. But it would be right for the participants to say it in advance.
2) At MK, guided by what the master said, they chose certain shapes, colors and types of glaze, trying to coordinate one with the other in conditions of an already limited choice. But after the completion of the MK, we received a call and were told that due to the inexperience of the master (by the way, there are no questions on our part) and the technological difficulties, the colors and glazes we chose cannot be made. The administrator referred to the fact that the glaze should not be disturbed - they say, this will lead to the fact that the product may crack during firing. Although a short search on the Internet gives the opposite answer. Interestingly, at the same time they offered to buy a separate icing machine and mix the glazes themselves there - that is, when you pay extra, then you can interfere with the glaze. When I said that I was ready to take the risk of damaging my product by mixing the glazes, the receptionist said that they just don't do that.
In general, it seems that the school has decided to simplify its work and reduce costs at the expense of customers - and ideally also earn money. Although when you give 100 rubles for a clay bowl, you wait... Well, at least some flexibility.
UPD
Taking into account your answer, I will add and specify: the administrator initially took the path of deception and manipulation, firstly, trying to transfer responsibility to the teacher (as if he were not part of the school), and secondly, referring to the technological impossibility of interfering with the glaze. As you yourself noted, it's not about technology, it's just that it's not included in the price.
It is clear to me that some part of the work and materials may not be included in the price, that anyone can make a mistake. But after paying, I want an honest relationship. And the school, represented by the administrator, deceived. And even in this deception, she was inconsistent, offering MK on painting immediately after the stories about the impossibility of interfering with the glaze.
Regarding the fact that the minimum age of the participants was indicated on the MK page, this is true. Nevertheless, if you want to shift responsibility so much, I just urge all future participants to pay attention to this and ask the organizer an appropriate question before starting, because there will be no other way to find out about it. By the way, I am glad that for this and other MC you have decided to raise the minimum age to 10 years. Although maybe it would be better to just divide the MK into children's and adults?
And continuing the conversation about responsibility and accessibility of information, you refer to the fact that a specific MK does not include the cost of some colors, glazes, or master's work. However, this information is not available on the MK page. I will assume that it is not in the public domain at all, i.e. you can fantasize about this unilaterally.

I was at the master class 2 times with friends. Twice - as they ran a marathon. Absolutely little time. Judging by the previous comments, the wishes of their guests were not taken into account). About the master class: While you are doing one thing, they explain the other in parallel, you ask again-you come back-you do not have time, they are in a hurry, there is little time for painting, because of the constant rush there is no opportunity to relax, enjoy the process and drink tea (which is still standing in the corridor and few people have time to try it). I think many people after a work week with deadlines just go for a relaxing creative atmosphere, relax, and get in a hurry and stress for their money).
Add half an hour or an hour to the master class, treat your guests, turn on pleasant music and most importantly - do not rush. Then I might want to come back to you and recommend the studio over and over again.

Unfortunately, there was a very unpleasant aftertaste from the service. I pre-booked an individual lesson for myself and my little daughter, paid for it, and received an e-mail confirmation. Arriving at the lesson, I find out that it was canceled, without even thinking about sending a cancellation notification and returning the money for the lesson. Other people were working in the studio instead of us. I had to spend 2 hours with a small child to find out the situation and why the money was not refunded immediately after the cancellation of our lesson. Although it turned out that if you buy a lesson online, then there are no problems with refunds. It was very unpleasant that I had to solve the problem within 2 hours instead of enjoying the lesson.

Interesting workshops, good entertainment for both couples and friends, if you love creativity and are not afraid to get your hands dirty with clay. The staff is pleasant, polite, friendly. There was a small mistake that they sent me an sms about the readiness of the product, but not to my friend, but everything was ready on the spot without any problems, so I don't consider it a big minus

Aaaaafigennoe place! :)
I really enjoyed the master class! And from the company of people who came to the same MK - all wonderful :)
It was fun and creative. Clay relaxed me completely)) This process is really immersive and brings peace of mind.
If someone wants to go to clay, but is afraid - you are in vain))
Everything will be shown and told - and you will definitely succeed.
Thank you 💖💖🦄😻

I attended two master classes. It's a wonderful place. The only drawback:
- the explanation of the next steps is given when not everyone has finished performing the previous step. I often couldn't keep up with the group. You need to ask again, because of this you are in a hurry and doing something wrong.

I really liked it! There is a potter's wheel. Be sure to clarify when recording on the MK whether the product will be made with the help of a potter's wheel))) As it turned out, vases that look like after a circle are often hand-molded, which is also very interesting in fact. I have tried both with and without a circle, I have always been satisfied with both the process and the result. You can arrange a date or a girly party there. I highly recommend it!

Normal. I won't go a second time. I didn't have enough advice, or I would have to look for references before the master class . And so what I imagined in my imagination, of course, did not work out

It's a very atmospheric place. We went with our son for 10 years to the master class "Christmas tree toys". The master tells everything in detail, but you need to listen carefully. The son coped with all the stages of making toys on his own. You don't take the result right away, but they gave it to us very quickly. There is an unusual atmosphere of creativity at school, you rest your soul. I highly recommend it for a visit.

I attended a master class on sculpting vases. The teacher was polite, humorous, helped and explained. The male half was immediately skeptical, but then the children got carried away and did not notice how 3 hours flew by. For new sensations, you can visit.

The perfect option to spend a weekend! Even if it seems to you that you are a "crooked hand", do not worry! With experienced and attentive teachers, you will succeed. My friend and I made vases, our teacher Svetlana was involved in the process, told us everything, corrected where necessary. In general, we really liked it! We are looking forward to our vases ❤
