  • Introduction to Japanese Floral Design

    This was a wonderful class. I learned so much from Junko, and especially enjoyed learning about the history of Ikebana + her own journey with the art form. I left with a beautiful piece, lots more knowledge, and the inspiration to keep trying at home. Thank you for an awesome class!

    My friend and I had such a lovely time learning about Ikebana and Japanese culture. It was such a great lesson of how to see beauty even in the simplest of things! They provided all of the materials and we hand crafted everything with help. Junko was extremely knowledgable and had an excellent eye for helping you develop your own ikebana arrangement. At the end, you keep the pot, planting materials, and ikebana flower arranger. I would absolutely go back again!

    Loved this intro to Japanese floral design class! Junko is so knowledgeable and kind. I really enjoyed the history/theory section part at the beginning that helped ground the arranging exercise. It was amazing how different everyone's arrangement turned out when working with the exact same materials. I will definitely be back for another class!

    Small class size allowed for one on one attention especially crucial when creating the ikebana. Arigatou

    Informative class. Very pleased at the final product and the opportunity to take the cuttings + equipment and recreate at home. Unfortunately the frog they provided was smaller and lighter than the ones we used in class, so my arrangement kept falling over. It would have been nice if they could’ve given a similarly large one!

  • Introduction to Japanese Floral Design

    This class was great! A lot of good information up front - the first half of the class is dedicated to the book-knowledge, whereas the second is the more technical knowledge. You get to take the flowers and pot home with you, so it's worth it. The instructor was sooooo cute - she's a riot, and she's super fun to work with. Would highly recommend.

  • Introduction to Japanese Floral Design

    Wonderful class with a great lesson on the history and techniques of Ikebana, the art of Japanese floral design. It was both informative and hands-on—I learned how to create my own arrangement and got to make one myself. We carefully took it apart for travel, and I was able to take home a vase, which was an additional $50 (clearly listed when booking). The class itself was $150, and well worth it! Shout out to TikTok for the inspiration. The teacher is very sweet and her work is stunning.

  • Introduction to Japanese Floral Design

    Junko is one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met! Full of knowledge in the world of ikebana and makes it easy to learn, engage, and have fun. Highly recommend taking this course!

    Loved this course. Beyond the technical skills learned, I loved learning about the philosophy, history, and spiritualism behind Japanese Ikebana. Such a holistic class all around. The professor was very interesting, kind and caring. This is a great way to spend some free time, highly recommend.
