What can we expect to make?
You'll learn how to make 1 small plate and 1 cup or bowl.
Is there an age/height restriction?
- Wheel throwing - at least 4 feet tall
- Wine will only be served to students 18 years old and above.
Are the workshops beginner-friendly?
Absolutely. We’re known for designing classes especially for first-timers it’s at the heart of what we do. Our lesson plans are structured to guide you step by step, and our teachers are experts at making beginners feel comfortable and confident.In Bumi & Ashe our mission is to help everyone confidently create.
Can we bring our final outcomes home?
We will need to fire your pieces first before you are able to use them, the firing process will involve multiple stages like drying, and firing it twice which can take around 8-10 weeks. We will inform you when your works are ready for pick up.
Are we allowed to reschedule?
We understand sometimes things can go wrong. Please bear in mind that this is not a weekly class, and you would have to wait for the next tipsy wheel class based on availability. Please note that there’s a P500/pax reschedule fee.
How do we claim our pieces?
You will receive an email with pick up instructions once your piece is ready. Please check your spam folder as it can get sent there as well.
What if I miss the class? Can I get a refund?
We do not offer refunds. As a small business, we dedicate time and space just for you—we appreciate your understanding.
Can I pay a downpayment to reserve?
We require full payment upon reservation as we need to say no to others who would like your slots. We accept BPI, BDO, Gcash. We hope you understand.
Why does Bumi & Ashe include colored glazing and kiln firing in the class fee?
We take pride that we glaze and fire all pottery in-house, and our studio glazes have been developed through years of formulation, testing, and firing in our own kilns
That’s what allows us to include a curated range of colored glazes in the class fee, rather than treating the finish as a separate add-on for this class.
For us, the final finish matters. It’s part of what makes a beginner piece feel complete, beautiful, and like something you’d genuinely want to keep, use, or display.
Can we paint our pieces?
Not in this class. This format is designed to maximize your making time, so we use the session for building more pieces rather than painting them in-studio.
If you’re specifically looking for a painting-centered experience, we also offer classes like Mug on Wheel or this handbuilding class (no wheel), and we’ll be launching more painting-focused formats over time.
