Authentic Calligraphy private session near Shibuya, Tokyo

Maki is an extraordinary teacher. She speaks very English very well and explains all the technics very carefully. She does not mind to repite many times the same explanation and makes the clase very participative. The experience is very personal because it is in the livings room of her hause and is open to explain the japanish culture. I can only recommend it!

Maki is a very nice person, very professional and an excellent teacher. We enjoyed the class very much and understood the great idea snd work of calligraphy. Highly recommended

First, Maki-sensei met me at Yoga Station. She is a very kind and welcoming person. The lesson took place at her home, a very peaceful environment to learn. We discussed the 5 shodo styles, fude(brush) etiquette, as well as, Kanji stroke order and other detailed writing mechanics. She was very patient and encouraging during the learning process. Often pointing out areas of improvement. Never made me feel like like I was wasting paper. Just keep encouraging me. Plus, she helped with my Japanese speaking and listening during the lesson. An overall great experience with an even greater person. ありがとうございました、Maki-sensei! またこんど。

I had a wonderful time with Maki this afternoon. I leaned an awful lot about Japanese language and Japanese calligraphy. Maki was so helpful and so friendly. This was one of the highlights of my trip to Tokyo. I highly recommend it.

This was the best experience ever! Maki is one of the nicest teachers I have ever met and she is also super professional! I’ve learned a lot from her!
