IKEBANA experience
Description
I will teach you carefully and gently in English. You can also see Japanese-style rooms in Japanese houses. In addition, if you have time after the lesson, we will prepare Japanese sweets and Matcha. Please feel free to ask what you do not know or want to know about Tokyo or Japan. It would be nice if you could get in touch with Japanese culture and become even more fond of Japan.

Hiromi was an excellent teacher—patient, caring, and very encouraging. She clearly loved her craft, and conveyed the beauty of ikebana during her lesson. As a kid growing up in Japan, I can remember my mother practicing ikebana. The lesson brought back many wonderful memories of my childhood. We are deeply appreciative of the beautiful experience we shared with Hiromi. Attached are the very first ikebanas!
A wonderful morning spent in the pleasant company of Hiromi whom I found to be welcoming, inspiring and so happy to answer all my questions! Would hope to do another workshop with Hiromi on my next trip.
Thank you so much for your kind review. It was truly a pleasure to meet you, and I’m very happy you joined the workshop. I really enjoyed our time together and our conversation. Hearing about Ireland and your experiences there was so interesting for me, and I had a wonderful morning as well. Please do come and do Ikebana with me again on your next trip—I would love to see you and create flowers together again.
What an amazing experience! It was lovely to see a traditional Japanese neighborhood and learn about Ikebana from an absolute artist! Hiromi taught us about the history and guided us through our first ikebana creation. We also were pleasantly surprised with the matcha and sweet treats. We highly recommend Hiromi’s class!
Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful review. I’m truly happy to hear that you enjoyed exploring the traditional neighborhood and experiencing ikebana for the first time. It was a pleasure to share its history and create arrangements together with you. I’m also glad you enjoyed the matcha and sweet treats. Thank you again for joining the class, and I hope to welcome you back in the future.
One of the most relaxing experiences I had whilst in Tokyo. It was an honour to learn about Ikebena from Hiromi and be invited into the beautiful studio in her home
Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful review. It was truly a pleasure to share the art of Ikebana with you, and I am very happy that you felt relaxed and welcomed in my home studio. I hope you will continue to enjoy Ikebana in your own way — with your tulips🌷 Thank you again for joining the lesson.
A wonderful class that was a true celebration of ikebana with Hiromi. I cannot speak highly enough of the experience - a true highlight of our time in Tokyo. Such a unique experience that included a history of Ikebana and an introduction to the experience and philosophy of this Japanese art. The arrangements that we made were just beautiful that I look forward to repeating an home. A true practice in mindfulness and that celebration of nature's beauty.
Thank you so much for your wonderful message. It was truly a pleasure to share the art of Ikebana with you. I’m delighted to hear that the class became a highlight of your time in Tokyo. Ikebana is not only about arranging flowers, but also about appreciating nature, history, and mindfulness, so I’m very glad those elements resonated with you. Your arrangements were beautiful, and I hope you continue to enjoy creating Ikebana at home as well. Thank you again for joining the class, and I hope your Ikebana journey continues beautifully.
Incredible, intimate experience that covers the history of Ikebana and of course allows you to make your own. One of the most unique experiences I’ve had in Japan during frequent travels.
Thank you very much for your kind review. It would be my pleasure to share the beauty of Ikebana with both of you again in the future. Wishing you a wonderful stay in Japan.
The Ikebana class with Hiromi was fantastic! She is a great teacher and is so sweet. She also made us matcha and gave us sweets after we were finished. We had such a lovely time and left feeling relaxed.
I’m so happy to hear that you enjoyed the class — your words really mean a lot to me. I also had such a lovely time with you. Hope you enjoy the rest of your stay in Japan and come visit again! 🌸
Hiromi is lovely and is excellent at Ikebana. She was very patient and fun to learn from. Her English is very good.
Thank you so much for your lovely comment! I’m very happy to hear that you enjoyed the Ikebana lesson. It was a pleasure to share the beauty of Ikebana with you. I hope you continue to enjoy creating your own arrangements. I hope you had a wonderful time exploring Tokyo after the lesson. Wishing you many more lovely memories during the rest of your stay in Japan! Warm regards,
I've had a long love for flowers and always dreamt of going to an Ikebana class, despite not having the strongest practical skills. Hiromi-sensei's kind and clear instructions gave me the confidence to step into the art form wholeheartedly while putting into practice the aesthetic principles. She shared with me more about the Sogetsu style of Ikebana, which is a contemporary approach with greater flexibility for interpretation. There are tools and textbooks stocked at the studio, should you potentially wish to procure them to continue your practice. If you're a lover of flowers yourself, I can assure you that you'll have a wonderful time learning from Hiromi-sensei!
Thank you so much for sharing such a warm and thoughtful review. I feel truly honored by your kind words, and I’m delighted to hear that my guidance could help you step into Ikebana with confidence. The Sogetsu style indeed offers great freedom and creativity, allowing each person to express their own sense of beauty, and I’m so happy that you felt inspired by it. Ikebana is not only an art form but also a practice that can bring calmness and joy into everyday life. I would be thrilled if you continue to enjoy arranging flowers at home. I look forward to welcoming you again whenever you wish to deepen your practice. Thank you once again for your generous words—they mean a lot to me.
Amazing opportunity to learn from the Master the art of Ikebana! Dive deep to the Japanese culture and become one with the nature! Learnt so much new and really enjoyed the Ikebana art! In the end enjoyed delicious matcha and wagashi (Japanese sweets) in the original tatami room.
