A wonderful class with Yoko - Yoko is just the very best teacher!!!! We had a great time doing our t-shirts and talking with Yoko was the icing on the cake. It was very easy to find her studio from the directions she gave. I highly recommend this class!!!

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!!

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.
