ABOUT US
Doing what we do best – teaching pottery techniques with emphasis of the benefits of working with your hands for your mind and body. It’s not only about making ceramics, it’s about slowing down, working with your hands and enjoying a creative break from everyday routines. Many find the process almost meditative: you forget time, focus on the clay, and leave with both new skills and a calmer mind.
Mojca is the founder of Studio Roka. A ceramist and a design lover in love with contemporary aesthetics.
