Chopsticks with Erika! - This activity is amazing! First Erika was super nice, clear and interactive. She showed interest in my work but also gave me the autonomy to do what I wanted, guiding me whenever I needed. I loved the process and the results (didn’t even see the time pass me by). it was great!

Cultural experience - Even though Erika had been injured in a car accident 2 days prior, she went out of her way to reschedule and accommodate us. This was an extremely enjoyable & fun experience. Would highly recommend doing this for the cultural experience. Erika was amazing.

What a fun and unique experience! - Hubby and I had a wonderful time learning to make chopsticks with Erika! It was such a neat experience, and we now have very unique souvenirs to remember our trip by. Erika is very friendly and helpful, especially after I picked an insanely hardwood to create my chopsticks with. I highly recommend this unique and fun experience!

AMAZING - This experience was a lot of fun! We were able to customize everything and was eye opening to how chopsticks are made. I would love to try the other experiences she has. Also the instructor was very kind and accommodating. The studio entrance is hard to find, but the instructor came down to greet us!

Unique and fun experience in Japan - This is a lovely experience with my spouse. We left our children at the hotel nearby but I think they would have enjoyed the experience. I left with my hands a little sore as having picked a wood that required some force to shape. From shaping, to sanding, and packaging it was a fun experience! Something that is unique and will capture a great memory from Japan.
