My Ikebana class experience was amazing! The very patient, kind, and knowledgeable teachers taught me so much and made learning the flower arrangements really fun. I will absolutely go back the next time I visit Japan. I cannot rate this highly enough.

I had a wonderful time at this class! I happened to be the only student in my class. My instructor was an absolute gem. I am from the US and my instructor apologized for her English, but it was perfect and I understood everything. I love flowers and arrange them on my own but Ikebana is a totally different way of thinking about aesthetics. I enjoyed learning about the history/philosophy in this beginner class, watched the instructor arrange one to show me, and then ultimately arrange my own. Highly recommend!

An excellent introduction to the art of ikebana! It is definitely more technical than we imagined but thanks to a comprehensive tutorial it was thoroughly enjoyable. Even my reluctant partner was pretty good at it with the Sensei and assistants being surprisingly impressed with his work. Arigatou gozaimasu!

It's my first Ikebana class and I learned a lot from the teacher. He went through quite a bit of the concept and theory behind this art and that took up about 1/3 of the class. It may not be the most interesting bit but I am happy to have learned so much from him.

Later on, he guided me on the flowers I've picked and how best to create a beautiful piece. After the 1st round, I had to take it all out and redo it on my own. It was an eye opening experience and the staff was on hand to help out. They were very friendly and encouraging too. Even teaching me how to use the cutter in the right way.

I've taken away a lot from this class and am very happy whenever I look back at my Cherry Blossom and Tulip creation. I'll recommend this place to go for your first class and understand the art of Ikebana better.

It was wonderful to learn basic fundamentals of Ikebana from a true Master, and head of an internationally renowned Ikebana school. We learned so much, and then we're able to use what we had learned to create our own seasonal arrangement.

What a beautiful and intimate experience! I always wanted to learn Ikebana and this was the best lesson I could have asked for. Mrs. Shimakawa is very passionate about the art of Ikebana and takes her time to explain the process in a way that is easy to understand. She created an environment that made me feel comfortable and excited. I was able to make mistakes, ask questions, and laugh! She went into deep detail into the process, shared her experience and the great things Ichiyo School of Ikebana does. I even met the owners of the school and was met with warm greetings. This experience is one of the highlights of my trip!

The Ikebana Master was great! He did take the time to explain the basis of his Ikebana school and of showing how to arrange flowers. He was extremely patient and helpful in guiding me when I was practicing. A truly great experience in a great environment. Everyone at the school was also very kind and helpful!
