Fun experience - Very nice people who take the time to explain everything. You will learn to write everything neatly, on different types of paper and a fan. Definitely recommended!

Calligraphy Japanese Style - A very pleasant and relaxing experience with 2 helpful and charming ladies, one of which dressed in a traditional kimono. Drinks provided near to arrival and a short history of Japanese calligraphy with a demonstration. All the equipment was provided and we suggest bringing a large water proof folder/bag to take your artwork home. You get plenty of practice paper provided, together with a special piece of paper and a fan to decorate. Seating and lighting good. We would say this activity was worth the booking fee of £125 for 2 adults and a youth. So all in all a good experience and you get to take away your own masterpieces! Not to forget, a personalised little name stamp aswell.

An Amazing Calligraphy Experience with the Family - This was such an amazing experience from beginning to end! We were a little early and we were still welcomed with open arms. The experience was thoroughly explained and 4 people sat with my family of 6 (4 adults, 2 children) and helped us along the way. We were allowed to try various characters and were given step by step instructions (visuals and verbal) on how to make perfect strokes. The included bevarage was a plus and they also gave many presents along the way, which was unexpected and a big plus! We stayed a little over an hour and they didn't rush us out. This was a great experience and my family and I are so happy we were able to do this while in Japan! Thank you so much for an amazing time.

I had an amazing... - I had an amazing experience! I highly recommend do this calligraphy lesson if you are in Tokyo. The teacher went above and beyond. She even took photos and videos so I can have as memories. My phone failed the airdrop of the photos at the end of the class and I didn't even realize it until I got back to my hotel. I reached out through Viator and ask her if I could have the photos via email. She is so kind and sent me the photos via a link. 5 stars service! Thanks again for a great experience 🙏
