Reviews
Tomomi was our guide and teacher for this workshop. Firstly I have to say she was the first person ever who gave such precise directions for the location, it didn’t even take me a minute to find the workshop. please do look out for her email before. Tomomi is a very gentle and encouraging teacher and she explained the techniques so patiently and nicely… she also took us through the history of Darumo which was quite enlightening. all in all this was one of the best experience I have had in Japan. this one is a MUST do especially Tomomi”s workshop and class!!
Awesome! A wonderful experience at the Daruma workshop. Tomomi is lovely, patient, and full of thoughtful touches. Plus, you leave with lots of little gifts, it's truly a great souvenir of Japan. I would recommend it without hesitation! Very easy to find - quiet place! It feels good to turn off your brain for a few hours away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
Wonderful experience! The instructor was exceptional and patient, explaining each step perfectly. It was a great shared moment with quality materials! A wide variety to choose from! All good.
