About This Tour
Immerse yourself in the art of Japanese calligraphy (Shodo) during a one-hour workshop in Roppongi, led by a PhD-holding master calligrapher. Begin with a live demonstration showcasing traditional brush techniques before diving into ancient scripts like Tensho and Reisho, learning about their evolution from Chinese origins to Japan's unique style. Engage in hands-on practice writing meaningful kanji, such as “夢 (Dream)” or “和 (Harmony),” and create a stunning piece of art on a shikishi board or fan. With an English-speaking assistant to guide you through cultural insights, this experience culminates with a photo opportunity and your own handcrafted artwork, a personal connection to Japanese heritage.
