The Principles of Wheel Throwing: Complete 4-Lesson Bundle

Learn the four foundational skills that determine whether your time on the wheel feels frustrating… or deeply satisfying.

This complete video bundle gives you the full system for centering, opening, pulling, and shaping clay with confidence. Instead of piecing together random tips from the internet, you’ll follow a clear, logical progression taught by Will Donovan, production potter, studio owner, and ceramic artist with 15 years of experience.

Each lesson is concise, focused, and packed with the kind of clarity beginners rarely get. You’ll understand why your clay behaves the way it does, how to correct your mistakes in real time, and how to build repeatable habits that unlock actual artistic control.

Whether you’re brand new or self-taught and stuck in the same frustrating patterns, this series gives you the fundamentals that make everything else in pottery possible.

You’ll learn how to:

• Center with confidence using body mechanics, not brute force

• Open your clay cleanly and consistently without uneven bottoms

• Pull perfect walls with stability, even thickness, and predictable height

• Shape with intention using hand techniques and tools without collapsing your form

Every step is broken down clearly, demonstrated from useful angles, and taught with the goal of saving you months of trial-and-error.

Includes:

• All four core lessons (downloadable immediately)

• Lifetime access to each file

• A complete beginner-to-confident-thrower roadmap

Master these principles, and the wheel becomes a place of freedom—not frustration.
