Experience Tokyo Traditional Crafts and Culture
Welcome to Tokyo and Japan!
We had a nice temari time with a guest from U.K.
It was wonderful 3 hours class, tought in English and the class is mixed with our usual Japanese students! Our cozy craft room is occupied with full of laugh and love. More than 100 colors are on the wall in the room. Those are all hand-dyed and 100% naturally dyed.
Listening of trips from Hokkaido and Tohoku area to Kyoto, Osaka .... and advising where to visit next in Shikoku and Kyushu .... about Onsen, Japanease food, green tea, sweets, manga and Japanese hand crafts ...
Endless fun!
She finished on the way home back to England!
What a great workshop! The instructor was fun and engaging. She was so knowledgeable about a variety of fiber arts including temari, knitting, crochet, and natural dyeing. She was kind enough to act as interpreter between the English and Japanese participants. Highly recommend this experience to anyone interested in Japanese fiber craft and embroidery.
This class was excellent. The teacher explained everything very clearly, in both Japanese and English. Very welcoming and cozy atmosphere. It was my first time making temari and it was even more fun than I anticipated. Will definitely return for more classes.
Making a Temari with Nona Temari was an amazing 👏 experience ❤️!
Mochi San, who led the course was very gentle and kind. She explained very well. I can speak very little Japanese and still I was able to understand a lot l! 😊
I highly recommend the Nona Temari Class!
Nona Temariと一緒にTemariを作るのは素晴らしい👏経験でした❤️!
コースをリードしてくださったもちさんはとても穏やかで親切でした。彼女はとてもよく説明してくれました。私は日本語がほとんど話せませんが、それでもたくさん理解することができました。 😊
ノナてまり教室はとてもオススメです！
Amazing experience! We had a lovely time in class. We left with enough knowledge to keep working at home! Instructor spoke wonderful English and helped us engage with the Japanese speaking participants as well!
This temari workshop was delightful. Mochi, the teacher was attentive and spoke very good English. The three hours flew by but we each came away satisfied with two balls we had worked on. I would highly recommend this workshop to anyone interested in Japanese crafting.

★ 5 / 5
All the explanation and demonstration are very clear and easy to understand and follow. The teacher could communicate in English fluently. All materials are provided and cost included in the course fee. The fee is very reasonable. I enjoyed the workshop very much.
