Which do you want to try? Traditional style or modern style? Or you’ll be able to try both. Please let us know when you come.
During the Ikebana workshop, you’ll create your own masterpiece, guided by our instructors. Your artwork will be displayed in a tokonoma (alcove) in a traditional Japanese room, where tea ceremony is held.
This experience is a time for immersion in nature, showing reverence for it and engaging in self-dialogue. It is a form of meditation.
The artwork in front of you is an expression derived from your past and present. It is recommended for those seeking new Zen experiences.
Our style diverges slightly from classic forms, focusing on bringing out the beauty while respecting the natural form of the plants themselves. It might be likened to a primitive style, evoking a sense of wabi-sabi.
