What a fantastic experience! My son and I absolutely loved Fujino-sensei’s Ohara-style flower arranging class. We learned the basics of this elegant Japanese art, then chose our own flowers to create beautiful, one-of-a-kind arrangements. Fujino-sensei was warm and patient, and Kennedy’s excellent English translation made everything easy to follow. It was relaxing, creative, and a wonderful way to connect with Japanese culture. We left with lovely arrangements and unforgettable memories. I highly recommend this class to anyone visiting Japan!

A fantastic experience. Firstly Fuji sensei delivered a history lesson and demonstration of the style and artistic elements of ikebana. We had a quick shop at the local flower shop and then Fuji sensei guided me in producing my first ikebana arrangement. Watanabe san interpreted when required. Conducted in a beautiful space, a 5 star afternoon.
