“I would defintely do this course again. The Japanese Art Kintsugi Ceramic Repair Workshop was both relaxing and a chance to learn about the culture and reason behind Kintsugi.
You just need to bring a will to learn to the wporkshop, as all the materials you will need are provided, as well as a little snack!
Yoko (the teacher) kept the learning atmosphere fun and light. A great course.”
“Recently, my husband and I had the unique opportunity to participate in a Kintsugi workshop led by the talented Kawada Sensei. This workshop was a wedding present, and it has since become a cherished memory for us as a couple.
From the outset, Kawada Sensei's deep knowledge and enthusiasm for Kintsugi were apparent. She patiently walked us through each stage of the process, ensuring we grasped the techniques before progressing. Her approach to teaching was both engaging and enlightening, making the intricate art of Kintsugi approachable for novices like us.
The workshop was more than just an instructional class; it was an immersion into the philosophy of Kintsugi - finding beauty in brokenness and valuing the history of an artifact. This philosophy struck a chord with us and enriched our experience.
We even purchased a kit to continue our Kintsugi journey at home. We look forward to delving deeper into this art and creating our own Kintsugi masterpieces.
Kawada Sensei's Kintsugi workshop comes highly recommended from us. Whether you're seeking a distinctive experience, a creative pastime, or a deeper appreciation of Japanese culture, this workshop delivers.”
“Learning this craft was a wonderful way to spend four hours. The teacher Yoko was incredibly well prepared and patiently demonstrated each step and explained the history, philosophy and craftsmanship behind Kintsugi. It’s pretty cool to go home at the end of the class with a plate I repaired and decorated. I can’t wait to try it at home.”
“Went to this workshop uncertain if I would be able to do it....but it was amazing. Yoko was patient and a very organised teacher. I left feeling calm and excited about trying Kintsugi again.”
