Attended a Japanese calligraphy class with Janet. She was very sweet and informative. Explained us everything in detail. And also helped us write our own name in Japanese calligraphy. The t shirt is an amazing souvenir to take back home.
Cool, niche experience!

We had a great experience learning the basics of calligraphy before translating our names and creating a T shirt to take home. Our instructor Janet was very accommodating, with great English. Learning about the calligraphy school was cool too

The teacher was kind and warm, answered any questions I've had and would show me how to improve. The translator yuuki was also amazing and would cheer me up from behind, not to mention helped me find a way to get to an island I want to go to
Fun, informative, and calming!

Truly a wonderful experience getting to learn from the sensei/sonnen and Yui! They were patient, friendly, and took the time to work with us and our daughter and get to know us. This was a highlight of our trip.
