We offer a variety of Japanese cultural experiences, including Shodo calligraphy. The calligraphy experience lasts up to 2.5 hours, allowing you to focus on your practice and immerse yourself in the fascination of shodo! And because we are committed to providing authentic cultural experiences, you can make the ink yourself by rubbing an ink stick. The sound and aroma will soothe you. It is truly a retreat for Japan lovers and Shodo repeaters! Our classroom is only a 6 minute walk from the nearest train station for easy access, and we also provide a prayer room for Muslims! <Flow of Shodo Experience> 1.
