• 11-8 Murasakino Nakakashiwanochō - This experience will be the perfect introduction to Shamisen culture for you. You can gain a concise understanding of its history and playing techniques from a professional instructor with over 18 years of experience. You’ll also have the opportunity to freely session with the instructor using the five signature sounds of Japan.

The other product is a class where you wear a kimono and delve deeply into the history and techniques of Shamisen. In contrast, this class allows for a casual approach in everyday clothing, focusing on enjoyment and skipping the more complex explanations. This class is designed for those who have never played an instrument before or who have limited time and budget. A professional instructor will guide you through a fun and engaging session! Let’s fun together!
