“A lovely class that was informative and fun! It was great to learn about the history of Kintsugi - would highly recommend! Akki and Hisae were great teachers & thank you for all the Japan recommendations!”
“We had a great experience at the Kintsugi workshop with Akki-san and Hisae-san. They’re fantastic teachers, calm, patient, and clearly very passionate about what they do. They explained the process step by step and also shared the philosophy behind kintsugi, which made the experience much more meaningful.
In the class we repaired broken pottery using the traditional kintsugi method, carefully mending the pieces back together and finishing the cracks with gold. It was very hands-on and surprisingly satisfying to watch something broken come back to life, where the breaks become part of the story, making the piece even more meaningful than before.
My wife and I did the workshop on our 22nd wedding anniversary, and it turned out to be a really special way to mark the occasion. We’re very grateful to Akki-san and Hisae-san for creating such a welcoming and thoughtful experience. Highly recommend it!”

“Akti and Hisae were delightful hosts and teachers; their clear instructions and calm environment made the class a success. Learning a new skill took me out of my head and the end result gave me a sense of accomplishment. Arigato sensei!”
“Had such a special afternoon at the Kintsugi class, celebrating my friends 40th birthday.
