This workshop is a hands-on introduction to Japanese calligraphy (shodō), designed for those who wish to experience this traditional art form directly. Students will learn how to use brush and ink, practice the rhythm and balance of strokes, and create their own expressive works on paper. Along with practical exercises, the class also touches on the cultural and meditative aspects of calligraphy — helping participants feel the calm focus and beauty that arise through writing. No prior experience or knowledge in Japanese is required, but an interest in the Japanese language is important. All materials will be provided and are included in the tuition. Please be aware that ink may stain sleeves or clothing. We recommend wearing clothes you don’t mind getting dirty.
