Patient, fun, learnt - Our instructor was very patient in teaching us the art of calligraphy, he offered us green tea which was sweet. He also wrote down our names in Japanese and told us the meaning. I overly enjoyed this experience and my fan didn't turn out half bad id say! As well as this we learnt the history about kanji and the written languages of Japan.

A must-go for a souvenier from Japan! - A must-go for a souvenier from Japan! They are very nice and knowledgeable here. The workers will guide you through the history of Kanji, and help you learn and practice so you can write your own! Then, you can create a T-shirt with your own design. It's a very easy process and a very fun experience!
