Essentially, it is important to have basic manners, such as sitting upright, keeping your back straight, and holding your brush upright. There are basic techniques such as "tome," "hane," and "harai," which should be practiced.Learn the stroke order of the chosen kanji.Learn by observing the teacher's demonstration with a model.Practice the kanji you have just selected with an awareness of the technique.【Special】Teachers have applied kanji to the foreign names of our clients and come up with Japanese-style names written in kanji.【Seisho】Participants will be asked to write their chosen kanji characters on a fan and a piece of calligraphy paper, keeping in mind what they have learned so far.
This was a great class. Kaori was a great teacher and we had plenty of time to practice our brush strokes before doing our final product. She also went through some of the history of writing styles. Great experience and would highly recommend this class. Kaori also premade some writings with our names before we got there on a small piece of wood and on paper in 3 different styles.

台風状況などで行程を決めかねる部分があったのですが、柔軟に対応いただけたおかげで不安が薄れました。 ほうとう作り体験では、要所要所でうまくフォローいただけたおかげで無事美味しくいただけました。 とり天を子供用にカットしたくてハサミをお借りできたり、食べきれなかった分を自己責任ですが持ち帰る容器をいただけたりしたので、とても助かりました。 0.5だけ減らしたのは、1組だけで体験していたからか?、体験中の写真を撮影して貰えていた参加者もいたようだったので、手が粉で汚れていて自分では撮れなかった写真が平等に撮っていただけたらより嬉しかったという点と、 キャンセル料の発生が宿や他アクティビティより断トツ早くて、台風発生で安全面を考慮し旅行の催行を迷った際の一番のネックだった(これだけキャンセル料がかかるので)点が少し残念だったからなのですが、総じてとても楽しめました。ありがとうございました!

The Daigokuden has been restored to its large appearance in the capital of Nara Year and the ruins of the central palace [Heijo Palace]. If you go northwest from the Taikyokuden, you will find "Cafe Kyoan". Experience the tea ceremony here and explore the various tea rooms. First of all, decide the seating order of the customer. If there are four people, it will be a regular customer, a second customer, a third customer, and a last customer. When you enter the tea room, you will be given a signal by a gong. After that, you will enter the room after cleaning your hands and mouth with the Tsukubai in front of the tea room. The entrance of the tea room is less than 1m square! Enter one by one from the regular customer to the last customer through the entrance (small rectangular entrance). The tea room is a different space. First, you will see (appreciate) tea utensils (everything has a name and meaning) such as hanging scrolls, and then sit down at your own seat. The owner (the person who makes tea according to the fixed method <pointing>) comes into the tea room with tools. The tea party is about to begin! During the tea ceremony, the instructor will teach you how to do it in the tea room. At the end of the ceremony, there is a <seeing> of the light tea bowl (Natsume) and chashaku (Chashaku) used by the host. You will be asked to place the tools in front of you in order from the regular customers. The way of <seeing> is surprisingly careful to handle the tools! This may also be my first experience. Let's listen to the "sound" in the tea room! The sound of boiling water, the sound of pouring and rinsing the cassotte and chasen water, and the indescribable impression! At the end of the tea ceremony, as well as when entering the room, after seeing the tools in the tea room, we will leave from the regular customers through the entrance. I'm used to returning home, so it may be easier to get out! Thank you for your hard work! Originally, it is not possible to take pictures in the tea room, but there is a shooting time after the end. There is no doubt that it will look good on Instagram, as it is in front of you, as a customer!

*Due to the relocation of our store, we are currently not accepting reservations. Why not paint an auspicious papier-mâché with your own original design at the popular Japanese culture experience cafe in Asakusa? Papier-mâché is a type of craft made by creating a frame from wood and pasting washi paper on it. It originally originated in China, but is said to have been introduced to Japan during the Heian period. There are many different shapes, but many of them are in the shape of animals, and they have become treasured as lucky charms. First, choose your favorite plain body. Once you have decided on the body, use your imagination and paint your ideas with paint. Our staff will support you, so even beginners can have fun creating. Papier-mâché is hollow and very light, so it is very popular as a souvenir for travel. [Types of bodies to choose from] ▶ Daruma "Daruma" has been treasured as a talisman and lucky charm since ancient times, as its rounded shape means that it "stands up no matter how many times it falls down." Paper mache daruma dolls are used for all kinds of wishes, such as warding off evil, bringing harmony to the family, and making wishes come true. ▶Lucky catsLucky cats used to be good luck charms for sericulture, as they exterminate mice that eat crops and silkworms, but since sericulture has declined, they have come to be good luck charms for business. There is a theory that lucky cats were originally made using the "Imado ware" pottery technique, which was produced around Imado-cho in Asakusa. *Various theories exist*Depending on the stock situation, we may not be able to provide the body you want.
