Funny idea on a t shirts - Me and my partner tried the other activity, learning how to make the sushi ... but we will come back for trying the Kanji on the t shirt. we will write something to each other without telling... would be fun.

first Japanese character on my t shirt - i tried to replicate my first Kangi, was a nice try but far from being perfect... Funny and relaxing to talking to the owner, a Japanese lady, English speaker, we have learne a lot about japan real life. It's worth to try!

You NEED to book this activity! - There isn't enough stars to say how amazing this was. The sweet lady who hosted the event was one of the nicest people I've met in my life, let alone Japan. She was very accommodating and hand made a Kanji I wanted to do for me on the spot. She was a fantastic conversationalist, insightful and funny, made it even better. She served little homemade snacks and tea, then to top it off, gave me some extra hand made gifts she made herself. The activity was a LOT of fun and she was very helpful. I can't stress enough how much you should do this activity while in Japan. You genuinely will not regret it.

Personalised experience - What a wonderful host and experience. I had such a beautiful time creating my very own t shirt as well as learning about calligraphy. I would recommend this experience to anyone looking to meet such a lovely host and have a unique and personalised experience.

Yoko was amazing! Not... - Yoko was amazing! Not only did she do a wonderful job of helping us with the calligraphy, she also provided sweet treats and a take home souvenir fan project. She was so warm and welcoming! Don't miss out on this adventure while you're in the Skytree tower area!

An Authentic Japanese experience - Yoko was the star of the experience. She was patient and kind and made us feel at home. My 12 year old nephew loved the experience and is wearing his shirt right now!!

Wonderful experience - Had so much fun , very lovely lady . Didn’t rush us into finishing our calligraphy. We had a lovely morning tea too 👏👏

Best personal experience in Japan - We absolutely loved this experience!! Yoko and Marian are both so sweet and welcoming. After we finished with our shirts they brought out traditional Japanese appetizers, desserts and tea for us to try. Marian even helped me fine tune my chopstick skills. Of all the experiences we had in Japan this was my favorite. I would recommend Yoko and Marian a thousand times.

A creative experience with fun take aways and treats - This activity was such a unique experience and we are very glad to have signed up. By the end, we learned a little about Japanese culture, ate some food we might not have tried otherwise, and had two t-shirts we can wear when we get home. Prior to our activity, we got a message telling us where to meet (at the base of the Skytree) and we were able to explore that area before meeting. When we got to the bridge, we were promptly met and walked over to the studio, which was very close by and up a flight of stairs. Upon entering, we changed from our shoes to slippers and hung up our pesky coats, and then we got right into some art. To begin, my wife and I were each given t-shirt options to select from - different sizes and either black or white colors. We both chose black shirts. We then selected the paint colors; my wife chose lime green and I chose blue. And finally, we were shown different designs to select from that we could paint on our shirts. After making all the choices, we then used wax pencils to draw the designs out on our shirts. We each did this a little differently, but at the end, we had nicely sketched designs. We then go to paint these. My wife did hers very neat and added the word Tokyo under it. Mine was a little messier, and I accidentally dripped paint, so I added several more drips on purpose so it had some chaos. After dabbing up extra paint, we then hung these to dry. While drying, we then were treated to traditional Japanese foods and treats. If you do this, make sure you try them all. There was only one my wife didn’t like, and I different one I didn’t like, so it was neat to compare. I probably wouldn’t have tried some of these treats and sweets in another environment, and now I also learned some about that as well. We also had some tea with the snacks, and I think we might be adding this to our shopping list to bring home. After our snacks, we packed up the now dry shirts carefully. And then were given some neat takeaways to try when we get home with our nieces - a lantern and fan with some tools to draw designs on them. As well as a notecards and a slip of paper to write our names on for her to pray for us in future. This was a truly one of a kind experience and we met a couple of nice people and have great memories to take home.

Calligraphy 書道 rocks here...plus so much more! - I love Japanese Calligraphy 書道 and FINALLY got to try it out. I went solo but I was simply overwhelmed by the kindness, charm and hospitality of the master Yoko Sensei. She offered not only a simple calligraphy lesson but SO MUCH MORE. She taught me some useful Japanese and offered me beautiful traditional Japanese food/desserts - such as sweet mochi (sticky rice cakes). It did not feel like just one hour. I MUST bring my friends next time.
