The forging experience was a first for me and it was well worth the money, time and journey! It's in a beautiful location worth a visit and with Nakanishi Sensei teaching us about the art of forging with such a passion, it became a spiritual experience. From understanding the role light plays in forging, the techniques for hammering the steel to the desired shape, and the clay art to create your unique hamon, it was all amazing!

My mother (69yo), teenage relatives (13 and 17yo) and I (27yo) did a day trip to Kimino High School in August of 2024 and we all had a blast! If you love anime and/or nostalgia, I would highly recommend this experience if you're visiting Japan. The organizers arrange a free shuttle service that transports you to/from Shinjuku station and the school in Chiba. I highly recommend using it because the school is located far in the countryside.

Welcome to Kawaguchi, one of the first post towns on the ancient Nikko Onari Kaido highway, which once connected Edo (modern day Tokyo) with the temple and shrine-filled city of Nikko. Your guide will meet you at Shakujouji Temple, just a short walk from the station, ready to take you into a day in the life of a shogun traveling to Nikko to pay their respects at Toshogu Shrine. Generations of Tokugawa shoguns, who ruled over Japan during the Edo period, stopped here during their journeys. Your guide will give you an overview of this history, before taking part in a Buddhist blessing ritual. Then get a true taste of Edo cuisine, by enjoying the same meal that shogun Tokugawa Yoshimune ate during his visit to the temple on April 13, 1728. The menu was recorded in a historical chronicle, and an Edo food expert recreated each individual dish based on recipe books from the period. Finally, you will have the unique opportunity to try on a Takasagozome kimono, featuring elaborate patterns that were all the rage in the inner quarters of the shogun's court. Most people in Japan have never seen, let alone worn, a Takasago-dyed kimono!

Why not try painting an auspicious papier-mâché doll with your own original design at the popular Japanese culture experience cafe in Asakusa? Papier-mâché is a doll made by creating a frame out of 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 dolls are hollow and very light, so they are very popular as travel souvenirs. [Types of bodies to choose from] ▶ Daruma dolls "Daruma dolls" have a rounded shape and the fact that they "get up no matter how many times they fall down," and they have been treasured as talismans and lucky charms since ancient times. Papier-mâché daruma dolls are used for all kinds of wishes, such as warding off evil, making the family happy, and making wishes come true, so they are used for prosperity in business and winning. ▶Lucky catsLucky cats used to be a lucky charm for sericulture because they exterminate mice that eat crops and silkworms, but since sericulture has declined, they have come to be seen as a lucky charm for business prosperity. There is a theory that lucky cats were originally made using the "Imado ware" pottery technique that was produced around Imado-cho in Asakusa. *There are various theories*Depending on the stock situation, we may not be able to provide the body you want.

A swordsmith will teach you the techniques of Japanese sword making and spend a whole day making a short sword with a blade length of less than 30 cm. During the experience, charcoal cutting, tamaheshi, tsutsubokashi, forging, unbending, fire making, soil placement, quenching, and blacksmith sharpening will be performed. The sword will then be registered and sharpened at a later date, and will be shipped to your home along with a registration certificate. If you select an option, you can also choose a Japanese sword such as a wakizashi (large) (small), katana, or tachi. Registration, packaging, and shipping fees are all included in the price. *Due to the Firearms and Swords Possession Control Act, the swordsmith will engrave the swordsmith's name on the sword. It is possible to engrave the participant's name as well. In addition, registration and sharpening are required, so it will take 6 to 9 months to deliver the sword. *The address, name, and phone number are required for the owner's details for the registration review and for shipping the finished product. If they are different from those registered with Activity Japan, please be sure to contact us here. If there is no contact, we will register and ship the sword as is. *If shipping overseas, please check for yourself whether the country can receive Japanese swords. In addition, export procedures, packaging fees, and shipping fees will be required separately. The amount varies depending on the country, so please contact us in advance. Payment will be made in cash on the day. *Damaged or scratched acrylic cases cannot be repaired, so please handle them carefully.
Made a Tanto with Yoshida Masaya shishou and apprentice Robert. Had an amazing time and actually planning on coming back to make full sword. Highly recommend the experience to all.

It was my first time trying hand weaving with a handloom, and I absolutely loved the process! The rhythmic and focused nature of weaving was therapeutic, and I felt a sense of deep satisfaction upon completing my first textile piece. The instructor was patient and encouraging, providing valuable guidance throughout the process. I was also amazed by the vast array of stunning textile works on display at the workshop. Each piece showcased the creativity and skill of the artisans, and it was truly inspiring to see such a diverse collection of weaving techniques!
