Japanese calligraphy is the essence of traditional Japanese culture. Why not try your hand at this art? “Shodo,” or Japanese calligraphy, is artistically written words that are written in a style that is both artistic and emotionally driven. The art of calligraphy was handed down from China during the 6th and 7th centuries, at which time the Japanese learned how to make brushes, ink, and paper. Soon after its introduction, it became an indispensable skill for educated nobles and samurai, the leaders of Japan. Over time, the appreciation spread to the general public. Now, it can be found not only as works of art but also in things such as New Year's cards and other special occasion writings. This art form is now a part of Japanese culture.

I had an amazing experience learning Shodo Calligraphy from Mr. Eikaku. His expertise and professionalism is superb. He was patient and encouraged me along the way. I felt comfortable and safe at his studio as well. Ms. Rie, the original point of contact went above and beyond to make this experience go smoothly. She is a great interpreter and well rounded human being. Needless to say, I highly recommend this experience. Thank you so much to both of you!

The calligraphy experience left a deep imprint in my memory. Both Eikaku and Yumi made me feel very welcome and comfortable. They made sure that I always felt comfortable in trying my first steps at the very basics of the art of calligraphy. My time with them flew by so quickly as I exercised basic lines following Eikaku's precise directions. Soon enough, I even felt somewhat confident in putting ink on paper :) All around an artistically and humanly rich experience. I'd return anytime for more!
