Welcome to Hartshill Clay Resort: The Perfect Destination for Team Building Days

Pottery Studio Shropshire

Are you searching for unique team building days out that inspire creativity and foster collaboration? Look no further than my pottery studio, Hartshill Clay Resort. It’s the ideal setting for memorable team building experiences, accommodating up to 25 participants. Perfect for corporate team building days, team building away days, and workplace team building activities.

Why Choose Pottery for Your Team Building Day?

Pottery offers a hands-on, immersive experience that encourages teamwork and creativity. Whether your team is looking to bond over a shared activity or seeking new team building day ideas, my pottery sessions are the perfect solution. Here’s what your team can expect:

  • Potter’s Wheel Experience: Try your hand at the potter’s wheel, learning the basics of throwing a pot on the potters wheel.
  • Sculpting: You could sculpt a small pot, animal or figurine. My flower folk sculptures are simple to sculpt.
  • Coiling Pots: A traditional and relaxing technique, coiling pots is where you roll clay into sausage shapes and use them to join together and build up a bowl.
  • Mug or Vase Making: Each participant can design and make their own mug or vase using my slab roller, a perfect keepsake to remember the day.
  • Flower Making: Most people don’t leave without making a flower, I can teach anyone to make flowers and they are quick. Why not make a group of flowers and a vase to put them in?

Benefits of Pottery-Based Team Building Activities

Pottery is more than just an art; it’s a fantastic team building activity that brings numerous benefits to your team:

  • Enhances Creativity: Engaging in creative activities helps unlock innovative thinking, beneficial for problem-solving and brainstorming in the workplace.
  • Strengthens Communication: Working together on pottery projects requires clear communication and cooperation, enhancing teamwork skills.
  • Boosts Morale: The satisfaction of creating something tangible fosters a sense of achievement and boosts team morale.
  • Stress Relief: The calming nature of working with clay can reduce stress, helping your team to relax and bond in a peaceful environment.
  • Tension Release: The physical act of molding and shaping clay can release physical tension and provide a sense of relaxation.
  • Mindfulness: Pottery encourages mindfulness, as it requires focus on the present moment, reducing anxiety and promoting mental well-being.
  • Sense of Accomplishment: Completing a pottery piece from start to finish gives a sense of accomplishment, which can improve overall mood and self-esteem.
  • Ego-Free Zone: At Hartshill Clay Resort, everyone is encouraged to drop their ego at the studio door. Pottery is a humbling experience that brings everyone to the same level, fostering genuine collaboration and mutual support.
