Better thyself: pottery classes
(Credit: Lawrence K. Ho)
Maybe you're afraid to get your hands dirty. Maybe you're afraid Patrick Swayze will shed his shirt and straddle you from behind.  Whatever your fears, lay them aside and explore the art of pottery.

Bitter Root pottery on Beverly offers Angelinos ample opportunity to take their potter's wheel for a spin six days a week.  Classes are held afternoons and evenings and last about two hours. Whether you have a flair for delicate porcelain vases or want to sculpt a new home for your hulking potted palm, sign up and they'll throw in access to all the tools, clay and glaze necessary to unleash the potter within. 

Added bonus: few things release tension as well as grabbing a clod of earth and strangling it into submission.

When:  Afternoons and evenings, Tuesday through Sunday.  Check www.bitterrootpottery.com for times

Where: 7451 Beverly Blvd., Los Angeles

Why:  Would you rather date someone who's taken pottery classes, or watched hours of "Walker, Texas Ranger" on cable?
