Tokyo: Privat kalligrafikurs i japanskt rum i Shibuya

It was a fantastic experience! After days of sightseeing and walking around Tokyo, dedicating an hour to learn about japanese caligraphy, its history, techniques and how to do it properly was a really wonderful moment. Our guide explained everything really well, she was encouraging us to practice, helping us on the complicated parts, and you get to bring back home your own writing as a great souvenir you did yourself! I really recommend this experience to everybody who is around, you won't regret it.

One of the best experiences in Tokyo. Very calm and relaxing atmosphere, the tutor was very knowledgeable not only about calligraphy but Japan in generall. Created a very relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere.

A wonderful session - it was just us (so nice and private) and we had an amazing instructor called Honoki who was very informative and spoke fluwnt English! It was one hour which was sufficient to learn the basics of kanji, hiragana and katakana.

must try calligraphy experience in Japan. Right from the beginning, our Sensei Sowa was very welcoming, introduced the history of calligraphy, did few practice on the techniques and finally did our masterpiece. apart from the calligraphy itself, Sowa was open to have conversations on the associated Japanese culture and beyond. After this, we have bought our calligraphy kit and will be doing more of this at home.

Moe was an incredible teacher. We had a really good time learning how to do Shodo (calligraphy), and we're very happy with what we've written. Arigatō Moe! ----- Moe est une professeure incroyable. Nous avons passé un excellent moment à apprendre le shodo (calligraphie), et nous sommes très contents de ce que nous avons écrit. Arigatō Moe ! 😊

Absolutely loved this calligraphy course! The instructor Soto broke down complex strokes into simple steps, making it accessible even for a total beginner. It’s incredibly therapeutic and I walked away with a beautiful new skill. Highly recommended!

The teacher was excellent and had a ton of English. There were four of us from three different generations, and we all had fun. Perfect length. The teacher even showed up early so we could start early. Plus you get to come home with an easily packable souvenir. Heads up, the building is easy to find but there is no sign outside the building we could find. It's on the seventh floor at the end of the hallway.

Das Ozaki Gebäude war leicht zu finden und der Kalligraphie-Lehrer hat uns pünktlich beim Eingang abgeholt. Der Lehrer namens Taku war sehr freundlich und hat uns geduldig das Kanji-Schreiben beigebracht. Es war ein lustiges Erlebnis und etwas, das in Erinnerung bleibt. Zum Schluss haben wir aus einem Speziellen Papier geschrieben, das wir mit nach Hause nehmen durften. Insgesamt empfanden wir den Workshop sehr familiär und Taku begegnete und freundschaftlich. Danke.

We had a lesson with Taku and thoroughly enjoyed it! Taku was a great and patient teacher, and super knowledgable about the practice. And overall, a very enjoyable person to be around. I highly reccomend to anyone looking for a quick cultural lesson and experience that they can take home and show to their friends!

Big compliments to Moe our sensei :) very interesting, great tips, will now continue to do calligraphy next to work to come down :) highly highly recommended :)
