  Yuki sensei and Kenji san are fantastic. Our family of four had a private lesson with them and enjoyed every minute. Not only did we learn about the importance of calligraphy to Japanese culture but we also had a lot of time to paint the characters ourselves. Yuki sensei and Kenji san are wonderful people - kind, interesting and fun. For English speakers a big plus is that Kenji san’s English is very good. We highly recommend this class.

  Kenji-san and Yuko-sensei were passionate about this art form and rightly so. They were friendly, patient (needed to be for me!) and easy to get on with. The lesson was informative and went by too quickly. Photos were taken and these were shared with me so I can remember the day. Really enjoyed the experience. Would recommended.

• Authentically Japanese!

  A very professional introduction to the art of calligraphy, with an informed and supportive teacher and guide, in a small group setting.

  This was me and my niece’s 1st scheduled experience while visiting Tokyo, and it set the bar very high for any other experiences to follow. The Sato’s were so kind and generous and genuinely, sincerely the nicest people we’ve ever met. Yuko-sensei’s passion for Japanese calligraphy is obvious - she is a thorough but patient teacher. And Kenji-San was so welcoming…truly, his kindness really made this an unforgettable experience. If you have ever been curious about Japanese calligraphy, and thought it might be too intimidating for you, trust me when I tell you that this is the calligraphy class you MUST take. Even after the class, Kenji-San reached out to see if we needed any recommendations and to send us the photos he and Yuko-sensei took during the class. We love the Sato’s!!!

• A great and funny experience!!

  I loved every minute of this! You learn a little about the Japanese writing systems, and how intricate the calligraphic process is. Yuko-sensei is a wealth of knowledge, patience, and experience. Kanji-sama is a great facilitator and translator. We practiced certain strokes, learned how to sign our names, and produced two full pieces that are our very own. And at the end, we got our very own certificates! Definitely worth the experience.
