I finally booked an introductory class to pottery throwing and I'm really glad that I did! Oasis Pottery has a user friendly website where you create an account and can select a class and time. I booked a 5pm class at their studio to get my hands dirty with clay. As expected, the class was relaxing and fun. We had Jason as an instructor. Very laid back, clear speaker, with thoughtful feedback and insights. He answered all of our many questions and reassured us when we felt like we needed some extra help. His instruction was detailed, but since it was my first time I didn't grasp all the information he was sharing. I'd recommend coming back with low expectations about what you'll be creating because it's definitely a skill that takes time to develop. I started off my first piece then quickly learned I'd go through much more fresh clay because it kept falling apart again and again. Some tips: If you have long hair like me bring a hair tie!! I made the mistake of leaving my hair down and things get messy. Wear some clothes you don't mind getting wet and muddy. Also, don't forget to bring some water. It's a 2 hour long class. Overall, I had a great time. Learned a lot and I'm sure I'll be back very soon! Thanks to the team at Oasis Pottery for being great! Also, I loved the music playlist!

Best studio in town! Such an awesome experience whenever I visit the studio with friends, the instructors are helpful and friendly and it's always good vibes. I get a little better each time I take a class and would highly recommend classes to anyone looking to learn something new or anyone looking for a fun date night or group outing. Check out their special events too, so fun!

My girlfriends surprised me with a class at Oasis Pottery for my birthday. They told me getting ahold of the owner to schedule an appointment was difficult and she was not responsive, but they were able to secure 3 seats for us the day before we took the class for wheel throwing. As soon as we arrived, we put on aprons and sat at a potter's wheel while the owner/instructor (Martha) demonstrated how to first operate the wheel and then how to center the clay. She then proceeded to show us how to form the clay so we could get rid of air bubbles, which eventually would lead to forming our own piece. Thankfully, the class fee included 3 lbs. of clay, so we had 3 chances to center the clay and make a piece. I messed up my second piece due to moving my finger while it was spinning, which caused a hole at the base. Unfortunately, I was not able to salvage the piece.Heads up, operating a potter's wheel takes a lot of upper body strength. Over time, we all felt our hands and arms getting more fatigued. Also, at the end, my back was sore from hovering over the wheel to center the clay. However, the experience was extremely fun and rewarding, and the instructor was always available to help. There was always that fear of messing up your clay after forming it into a good shape (happened to me on my second try), but most folks in class also had the same struggles.Once we finished our pieces, we were able to pick a paint color for each one (there were about 7-8 paint colors to choose from, and Martha would do the painting). We were told the pieces would be ready in 2 weeks.Overall, this was such a fun experience and my interest in wheel throwing is piqued. I have more respect for the folks who make it look easy.

We have been looking for a pottery studio where we could take a wheel throwing class and Oasis Pottery was one of the only places we could find. We decided to bring our team here for a private class as a team building event. It was a super fun way to spend a couple hours and everyone really enjoyed themselves.The class itself came with a dedicated instructor and everyone had their own wheel to work at with clay and equipment included. We were given some brief instructions and then given the opportunity to create a few pieces of our own. Most of us were able to make 2 pieces in our time. The cost of the class included 1 piece to be glazed. I would say my only criticism is I wish that there were more glaze options. Maybe some more modern clean colors. Also - a little bit more detailed instructions would be helpful but it's also hard to say as I'm sure it is difficult to teach too much in a short introductory session. Overall this was such a fun experience! Our whole team had a great time and we would recommend anyone to come check this place out for themselves.

I attended a private group class for pottery throwing and would generally recommend it for anyone looking for a fun group activity or date night. The studio is eclectic and inspiring with all of the wonderful mess that comes with art. For our session - the instructor teaches the basics of how the wheel works and explaining and demonstrating the techniques used to center and shape the clay (which is much harder than it looks!) After that, each person was given three 1lb pieces of clay for three total attempts at making whatever we desire while the instructor offers help. At the end of the class we picked a glaze for any piece we choose to keep, and will come back in a few weeks to pick up our beautiful creations! Overall the experience was a good time I would recommend. I took off one star because, like others have said, it can be tough to get a response back when trying to set anything up (I had originally texted about wanting to sign up for a class six months earlier and never got a response). I also didn't feel like the instructor was particularly attentive when it came to our "free time" - she was doing other things throughout the studio and we'd have to call her over if we needed help with anything - in my opinion it would have been nice for her to observe and offer insight into how to fix the specific mistakes we were making so we could learn.

I was looking for an intro class to wheel throwing class and this place was perfect. Martha was very responsive and even opened up another time slot for Mother's Day weekend. We went as a family on 5/10 and had the best 2 hrs. They were very patient and informative. It was def a challenge to learn the process. But all of us were able to create something. My daughter was 13 and was able to do it as well. Once we created our pieces, she had us choose colors and ended up finishing it for us and even shipped it to us (we are from SoCal). I would recommend this place

My partner and I did the introduction class today with Tim. As an instructor Tim was amazing, sad it was his last day. We had never done a wheel spinning class but with a little help we're able impress ourselves. This place is a must if you are a local, or visiting and looking to have a unique experience off the strip!!

This space is such a good place for talent of all levels. I am completely new to pottery and Oasis made me feel safe to jump right in and try. This is the best studio in town and the vibes are amazing. I recommend this place to beginners looking to try a new hobby or those more skilled to let loose and create. I also went back for a girls night and we had a blast!
