The Aura Experience
Rachel
Five stars! I stayed at Aura Pottery for almost 3 weeks. I thoroughly read their website and emailed to ask additional questions. From the very start and throughout my visit, everyone was so helpful. My stay was comfortable and enjoyable with a private room, delicious meals, and excellent pottery instruction. I was able to have the perfect experience of learning and relaxation. You will not regret time spent at Aura.

Step into Aura Pottery: Where Art Meets Whimsy and Paws Pitter-Patter!
Nestled snugly in the heart of creativity, Aura Pottery is more than just a studio; it’s a whimsical wonderland where clay dances into enchanting masterpieces. Guided by the artistry of owner Andy and the magic hands of pottery maestro Poornima, this haven welcomes both seasoned artists and curious newcomers with open arms. But wait, there’s more! Meet the real stars of the show – Fifi, the wise elder; Ella, the mischief-maker; and Bono, the bundle of boundless enthusiasm!

I have just completed a four-week stay at Aura and would thoroughly recommend this experience to anyone wanting to recharge their batteries, get creative, and learn new skills. The daily pottery sessions were very enjoyable, and I learned so much from Poornima who is a wonderful teacher. Every single person at Aura was super friendly and welcoming. The food and accommodation were excellent, and the gardens (full of wildlife) were inspiring. Happy to give a 5 star review and am already planning my next visit!

Well it was a great experience. Went there twice and was quite impressed with the class as well as the surroundings. Would surely recommend to visit them at least once.

I spent three weeks at Aura Pottery. I loved it. Aura is its own hidden oasis with many trees, fruit trees and gardens. I got to learn at my own speed. It gave me time to look at my process’s and make templates with guidance from Raksha the studio manager and potter. One of the great things about Aura, is that it gives you an experience in India with out it being full on and in the big busy cities. The studio is really well equipped and I was totally happy with the accommodation. If you are looking to improve your pottery or learn Aura is a great studio to be in.

Amidst endless hues of green, with orchards of yellows, reds and colors in between. sweet limes, papayas, guavas and figs, everyone was free to have their pick. A lounge, a mess and rooms to stay, a loaded studio, a pool, and swings from trees and hammocks to sway. Tea and coffee at hand as u please, while a sit by the lily pond puts ones mind at ease. Two beautiful labs, tofu n Fifi, as cheerful n loving as labs can be. While A beautiful hostess gives u lessons on creating with clay, a braided, lil coordinator makes sure u have a perfect stay.

I have just spent 3 weeks at Aura. it is the perfect place to be creative. I wanted to do things I’d never done before like casting. if there is a will there is an opportunity. It is a beautiful place and if you need the big city it’s a bus ride away. Being the only foreign artist here, I was made to feel so welcome by the people who worked there and made to feel like one of the family with the lovely Guptas…thank you I wouldn’t have missed it for the world!

Aura is truly an artists’ paradise! Nothing beats this place if you want to unwind, relax, spend time with two floofs, chill in the studio and detox from unhealthy city lives. Just brilliant!

About my experience at aura, it was really nice. I learned loads and it was great to have the studio for myself. I would only recommend it to someone who’s independent because you need to be able to work on your own. Also making the studio space a little more comfy and with more care would be a plus. The food was great to my taste.
