If taking a calligraphy class is on your Kyoto bucket list, you should definitely visit 聚らく JURAKU – Kyoto Cultural Hub.
The atmosphere is incredibly warm, welcoming, and relaxed, and our professional teacher immediately knew exactly how to help improve my brush strokes. She was patient, encouraging, and made the whole experience feel very personal.
Such a wonderful experience! Thank you so much! ♡

A great time to learn something traditional, but new to you!
I very much enjoyed my experience at Juraku! Calligraphy was harder than I thought it would be, but it was challenging in a good way. I drew the character bi (pronounced bee) which means inner and outer beauty. The teacher was really patient with me, which I appreciated greatly. She led me though the exercises and checked with each person to make sure they understood before moving on.

"愛-Love"
It may have been the first time in my adult life that I wrote so carefully and mindfully. I really enjoyed choosing my favorite kanji and writing it myself. Being able to take it home as a hanging scroll and display it makes it a wonderful keepsake and a special memory.

Nice!
The calligraphy experience at Juraku was really amazing! The teacher was very patient and nice. It taught me how to hold the brush and finish each one with my heart. The overall atmosphere is quiet and comfortable, and after the event you can bring back your own handwritten works and have a deeper understanding of Japanese culture. It is highly recommended to all the friends who come here for a tour, it's an activity that's well worth experiencing!
Such a relaxing, informative, and fun experience learning one of Japan’s most treasured crafts!
