    As an ancient japanese craft that is known the world over, origami is definitely something that needs to be explored to gain some understanding of another aspect of Japanese culture. As such, my partner and I took this time to make several objects including the world famous crane. It was great fun and a real eye opener on how the japanese approach these things. It was time very well spent and the user guide document that you take away is a really useful reminder of how to make these wonderful things.

  • Great fun and a great host

    Had a great time at the origami workshop. Our instructors were super nice and helpful. It was very exciting to learn how to make a samurai helmet and a crane amongst other cool things (although the crane is HARD). We also got a small booklet to be able to practice at home. Thank you!

    The cafe where the workshop takes place is so charming! And the instructor was incredibly patient with our boys (ages 7 and 9). It was a delightful way to end our afternoon in Kyoto.

    The activity has been very fun. I was the only participant so I had a private lesson. The hostess very friendly and welcoming. I didn't speak English but I fully understood all the steps. We had a great time making 4 different origamis. I stayed for a matcha later in the cafeteria and it was delicious.
