Shodo: Japanese calligraphy

Experience Shodo, the Japanese art of calligraphy, where creativity and mindfulness come together.

Open to students of all generations and backgrounds are warmly welcomed, no matter what you are seeking: enrichment of Japanese cultures, new inspiration for your expression, or a calming meditative practice.

Through guided instruction, you will learn:

  1. The fundamentals of brush technique and ink preparation.
  2. The beauty and structure of Japanese characters.
  3. How breath, posture, and movement come together in mindful creation.
  4. Ways to express your individuality through each brushstroke.

Each session provides a peaceful space to slow down, focus, and reconnect with yourself. 

The rhythmic motion of the brush on paper encourages concentration and relaxation, helping to reduce stress while cultivating patience and clarity.

Join us and discover how a single brush, a drop of ink, and a quiet moment can transform into something profoundly beautiful. 

Enroll today and begin your journey into the art of Shodo.

This course is taught in English.
