You can experience calligraphy, a traditional Japanese culture, using real tools. Unlike the calligraphy sets you can buy at shopping malls or schools, we use calligraphy tools procured from traditional calligraphy shops, so it's perfect for those who want to get a taste of the real thing and Japanese culture. This plan supports Japanese, English, Spanish, Italian, and French. Most calligraphy experiences take 60 to 90 minutes, but the JanDara calligraphy experience takes 120 minutes. You can communicate well with other calligraphers. Approximately 10 minutes from anywhere from Haneda Airport, Shinagawa, or Yokohama! We will rent Ota Sangyo Plaza PiO, which is a 3-minute walk from the station. This is a spacious 40 tatami Japanese-style room that can accommodate up to 54 people, where you can sit in a sitting position or sit on a horigotatsu (horizontal kotatsu) and do calligraphy with your feet down. If you are not comfortable sitting up straight, you can stretch your legs and participate in a relaxed state. For those who would like to experience the numbness of their legs while sitting seiza like an authentic Japanese person, we will prepare them so that they can experience it sitting seiza. When deciding which characters to write on colored paper, teach them the Japanese meaning. Creating Japanese names together will be a lot of fun! At the end of the experience, you will eat Japanese sweets. You can take the completed work home with you. Not only that, you can scan your work and hand it over as data, so you can post it on SNS, make a record, make an announcement, or create materials. You can also make original T-shirts and mugs in your own country since the data will remain in your possession!

You can enjoy the experience and communicate with Japanese people, not just "written with a brush".

Systema is a military martial art based on traditional Russian martial arts. Systema has the following four characteristics. Breathing: Breathing is very important in Systema. Deep breathing helps oxygenate your entire body and relax your muscles. Relaxation: In Systema, it is important not to tense your muscles. If you tense your muscles, your movement will be restricted and your opponent will be more likely to attack you. Posture: Maintaining good posture is important in Systema. By maintaining the correct posture, you will be able to maintain your balance and be less likely to be attacked by your opponent. Keep moving: At Systema, it's important to keep moving. By continuing to move, it becomes difficult for your opponent to predict you, making it easier to dodge attacks. Systema is a practical martial art that assumes various situations in modern warfare. It incorporates a wide range of techniques, from martial arts using weapons to bare-handed martial arts. Systema is a martial art that is popular not only with the military, but also with the police, security guards, and the general public.
