Welcome in! You’ll step into a quiet, relaxing Japanese-style room—hard to believe you’re right in the middle of Shibuya.
A knowledgeable but super friendly Japanese instructor will greet you and share fun, easy-to-follow stories about calligraphy and its history!

Are you ready to try it yourself? You’ll start by making your own ink, then enjoy practicing the basic movements at an easy, relaxed pace.
After that, you’ll choose one kanji, practice it a few times, and finally create your own piece on traditional paper to take home as a souvenir!

During the experience, the instructor will happily take lots of photos for you. If you’d rather not be photographed, just let them know—totally no problem!
