We had the best time — a highlight of the trip so far — learning about ikebana, meeting the local flower shop owner, & choosing our flowers with our guides’ expert insight. Then we got to make our arrangements, putting to use all we’d learned so far. And what was wild was how different our two arrangements are, yet how perfectly they reflected our personalities — all while following the rules of this ancient, soothing, stunning art. I highly recommend this experience! It was 100% a great time.

Enjoyable learning experience
Somehow I was expecting to be in a group so I felt very privileged to be receiving a private lesson. Fuji-san's explanations were so clear she has inspired me to continue exploring Ikebana. Warm, welcoming atmosphere, inviting local neighbourhood, thank-you Fuji-san for making your art so accessible!
