The staff here were so lovely and helpful, they all spoke a little English but I was able to communicate with rudimentary Japanese. the dressing was easy and straightforward and then they did photos and then I went out for a walk around. Lovely experience!

What a great afternoon we had. Ladies were super efficient and helped us to choose and put on beautiful kimonos. We decided to go to Fukushuen Garden (don't walk in summer, take Uber, just 500 yen) and had so much fun.

This experience were amazing. You had an English speaking Japnese guide who gave you clear instructions how to make the Kintsugi. At the beginning you could choose your own small plate or bowl and was show to your own work station there you were guided through various steps what to do as well as got to know how real Kintsugi are done by using the Urashi Tree sap. I. short a amazing and fun experience.
experience: amazing
instructor: Clear and very helpful
location: Easy to find via Google maps very spacious studio with good ventilation.

The first floor is a store with reasonable layout. If you like a wallet, you can take it home. You can take pictures in the store. The service staff on the first floor will lead you to the stairs on the second floor. The second floor is the hand-made area. The instructor was very polite and tried hard to tell us the order and precautions of hand-made in English. She also tried to tell us how to improve, but we didn't understand it all. Finally, when the time is up, the bag will be filled with hand-made works, and a note will be given and explained once in advance.

It’s an incredible experience to learn Kendo under the guidance of a master.
We learned from proper greetings and posture to sparring, competition, and the history behind it.
A must-try experience when you visit Okinawa!

The experience was a 10/10. I wish the workshop had included a bit more about the history of Shisa and Okinawan culture, but I'm not complaining. The staff was very friendly and provided us with all the materials and protection needed to avoid damaging our clothes.

The activity was really fun! I recommend it for everyone and all ages. The clay figurines were so funny and cute. The acrylic paint was of good quality and easy to apply. The packaging is also great.
