Kyoto Mga Pagawaan

Ang seremonya ng matcha tea ay sobrang saya at nagbibigay-kaalaman! Mabait, may kaalaman, at bukas sa anumang tanong ang aming instruktor, na siyang nagbigay-sigla sa karanasan. Gustong-gusto ko ang matcha at nagpasyang pag-aralan kung paano ito gawin nang tama, kaya bumili ako ng kanilang kit na may kasamang bowl, whisk, scoop, at marami pang iba. Ginalugad namin ang sining at pagiging mindful ng matcha, at gustung-gusto kong marinig ang lahat ng kamangha-manghang katotohanan. Bawat hakbang ay ramdam na sinasadya at nakakakalma, na nagbibigay sa akin ng mas malalim na pagpapahalaga sa tradisyonal na gawaing ito. Kung ikaw ay isang matcha lover, lubos kong inirerekomenda ang karanasang ito upang ganap na ma-enjoy at mapahalagahan ang matcha!

Nasiyahan kami sa pag-aaral tungkol sa mapitagang kultura na nakapaligid sa isang tradisyonal na seremonya ng tsaa. Ang kanyang kakayahang magturo sa amin sa Japanese at English ay mahusay para sa aming grupo. Nakaranas pa kaming magbula ng matcha mismo. Lubos na inirerekomenda.

Bawal ang patpat, bawal ang pagkain! ⸻ Isang napakagandang workshop sa paggawa ng chopstick sa Kyoto! Mula nang dumating kami, ang lahat ay kalmado, nakakaengganyo, at napakagandang naipaliwanag. Ang Ryu Kai Soku ay mga natatanging instruktor: matiyaga, mapagbigay-pansin, at tunay na madamdamin tungkol sa kanilang sining. Ang kanilang patnubay ay malinaw at tumpak, ngunit palaging inihatid nang may init at mabuting pagpapatawa. Pinamamahalaan nila ang bihirang balanse ng pagbabahagi ng malalim na tradisyonal na kaalaman habang ginagawang madali at kasiya-siya ang karanasan para sa lahat. Ang pagtatrabaho sa kahoy, pag-aaral ng mga kilos, at pag-unawa sa pilosopiya sa likod ng gayong simple ngunit makabuluhang bagay ay isang tunay na pribilehiyo. Hindi ka lamang aalis na may mga chopstick—aalis ka na may isang kuwento, isang kasanayan, at isang malalim na paggalang sa gawang-kamay ng Hapon. Salamat sa di malilimutang karanasang ito. Hinihiling ang Ryu Kai Soku ang lahat ng pinakamahusay para sa hinaharap—nawa'y patuloy na magbigay inspirasyon ang iyong workshop sa maraming kamay at maraming puso. Elaine at Arnaud

Everyone was very kind. I didn't do a reservation, so I had to wait a little bit necause they had already started with a different group, which was fine. It was really fun and easy. I could show them the motiv of what I wanted engraved in it. Especially the little Bunny. I got wooden dust all over my clothes and they gave me a wet-towel to get rid of it, it worked quite well. Which means they are well prepared. I recommend anyone try it.

Napakagandang karanasan. Ang mga lalaki ay sobrang bait at mapagbigay pansin. Ipinaliwanag nila sa amin ang bawat hakbang at palagi silang kasama namin. Napakalapit at kaaya-aya. Nasiyahan kami nang sobra. Ang resulta ay napakaganda, at ang proseso ay kamangha-mangha. Ito ang unang beses ko, wala akong karanasan dati at napaka nakakaaliw. Nasiyahan namin ito! ARIGATO!

Had no expectations for this other than we were going to make some cool keepsakes. Was blown away by the knowledge of the staff and their willingness to teach us something new, guide us through the process and refine any mistakes or blemishes we may have made. Atsushi and Dotski were especially helpful and skillful. There was no rush to get us out of the facility and food and beer were available afterwards where we were able to sit and talk with fellow patrons and the staff. 100% recommend.

Talagang isang magandang araw para maalala at isang tampok sa aming paglalakbay Tagapagsanay: marami akong natutunan tungkol sa kasaysayan at kultura ng Japan Pangyayari: isang magandang lasa ng karanasan sa Kando

this was a phenomenal experience. expect a lot of sweat and sore muscles after this, but it is so worth it. You start by choosing what kind of knife you want to make, then head own to the forge where the guides show you how to beat the heated metal to expand it into your knife. They help you through the process (my partner was fine, but I needed a bit more help as I don’t really have any wrist or arm muscle and got tired pretty quick) and help shape it into your desired knife. You’re there for an hour to an hour and a half, then sand your knife down to the perfect shape and sharpen the blade (which I loved). The guides tell you how traditional knives used to be made before the sanding belts they have now, and you get the full experience. The guides were amazing, gave the perfect amount of guidance, and helped with the final steps to make sure your knife was the best it could be. Shout out to Mits and Deiki! I would absolutely do it again, and highly recommend the experience!

We had an awesome experience learning the art of Kintsugi in Kyoto. I attended with my adult daughter and we both had a wonderful time. The booking says the class is one hour, which is not enough time to actually complete the class. You’d be better allocating 1 1/2 to 2 hours for the experience. We really only had an hour and were rushed getting it finished in 1 hour 20 minutes. That was the only downside to the class. Our instructor JoJo did a marvelous job of explaining some of the history and uses of Kintsugi. It really was fascinating to experience the philosophy of rebirth and reuse. Like so many of the temples use the Phoenix as a symbol for rebirth, this class taught the practical side of the concept. From reassembling the broken dish to applying the gold, JoJo made it fun and informative. Highly recommend it to anyone - all ages!! instructor: Fun and interesting. experience: Very happy we made time for this!!
