It’s a great class.
We had a good time.
We learned the basics and some of the various techniques of how to write calligraphy properly.
We chose to write wind and samurai kanji characters for our final piece after she taught us how to use the brush for writing Japanese and we had practiced writing some kanji.
It’s so fun 😊😊

Doho was very nice. The class was interesting and I learned a lot.
For others going there: In my case when I clicked to get directions in Airbnb directly, it showed me the wrong place. It's better to put in the address yourself or meet at the bus stop. Otherwise you end up in a place nearby and not the correct one.
