About
My name is Ioanna Zoutou and in 2005 I started my hobby by creating the "Koumoulia" pottery workshop. Since then I have been taking clay lessons, during which I have the pleasure of transmitting my love for clay to young and old. At the same time all these years I have not stopped creating my own unique pieces, which I also market.

I was 19 day in this beatiful place. I came to learn to work on the
wheel and Ioanna was a perfect teacher .She made a
program that was exactly right for me. I lived in a house above the studio and it was perfect.
Koumoulia is a very special place
and Ioanna is full of enthusiasm to create new creative things with the clay
Thank you Ioanna and good luck with your special way

The class was great. The teacher was very helpful. We learnt so much more than we anticipated. A short introduction to crete style pottery and also about the special crete clays that exist here. Being at the wheel was an amazing experience but especially with such a patient and enthusiastic teacher with you every step of the way. We have signed our pieces and paid a small fee for our postage for the safe return of our special items we made.
What an experience. Thanks so much for this.

It should be explained that nothing would get fired and no complete pieces come home with you. Being unfamiliar with the process we were unaware. We took the unfinished pieces but will probably leave behind because we have no place to finish them. Definitely not worth the money or time.

As I mentioned to your friend in the previous review, our experience description clearly states that the items need to be fired and that shipping them outside the European Union is expensive. It was your choice not to have them fired due to the high shipping costs to the USA. We understand you were unfamiliar with the process, and we regret that this was not clear.
We are always happy to fire the items and arrange shipping if customers can cover the expenses.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and for your visit. Customer satisfaction and enjoyment are always our top priorities, and we are always available to provide support and respond to your needs.

My friend and I had a great 2 hours pottery lesson. Under the guidance of Ioanna we worked for the first time on the wheel and had such a nice experience. The atelier is on a wonderful spot and near to the Heraklion airport - so we could get the lesson before flying back. We highly recommend this workshop and we're looking forward to more pottery classes!

We had a lovely time at the ceramics workshop. Ioanna showed us different techniques and we managed to create some really nice pottery that she will ship to us in Denmark.

I got this pottery seminar as birthday gift, and the experience was really worth it! Working with clay is playful and enjoyable, the lesson was very professionally held, the atelier is very nice, clean and colourful and the location is great, surrounded by nature and vineyards, totally recommend it!

It was such an nice experience! Ioanna was such a relaxed guide and did explain us everything. She even let us do what we want and helped us with everything. I couldn‘t recommend it more to do the workshop - it enlighted my interest in pottery a lot!

We just finished a 2h pottery class with Ioanna and it was fantastic.
Ioanna is a great host and she started by showing us some of her work, the different techniques used and asked us about what we would enjoy doing.
The whole class was tailored to what we wanted to do and Ioanna's patience led us through the different steps like centring the clay on the wheel and turning it into different shapes.
Aprons are provided and masks worn all the time. It was just the 2 of us in the class and always felt safe given the times.
I would definitely recommend trying this early on so you can return either for a full course or to collect your work after it is treated and glazed. We chose to have ours delivered and Ioanna was very accommodating for this.
Looking forward to receiving our little gems.
