We had a truly wonderful experience with Janny during the calligraphy and pottery workshop in Shanghai. From the moment we arrived, everything was thoughtfully organised, calm, and welcoming. Janny has a rare gift for sharing Chinese culture in a way that feels both authentic and accessible. The calligraphy session was beautifully paced, allowing us to appreciate the history and meaning behind each stroke, while still being hands-on and engaging. The tea tasting that followed was equally special — unhurried, informative, and deeply grounding. What made the experience exceptional was how well it worked for our entire family. Our children were genuinely engaged, curious, and excited throughout, which speaks volumes about Janny’s warmth, patience, and ability to connect across ages and cultures. This was not just an activity, but a meaningful cultural memory that we will carry with us long after our trip. We would wholeheartedly recommend Janny’s workshops to families and anyone looking for a thoughtful, enriching, and personal cultural experience in Shanghai. We very much hope to return again in the future.
