What you can expect

Immerse yourself in one of Japan's most refined traditional arts in the heart of Kanazawa, a city celebrated for its living cultural heritage. Step into a beautifully preserved tea room for an intimate, mindful Ikebana (flower arranging) session guided by a Sogetsu School Grade 1 Master with over 20 years of experience.

Learn the Sogetsu School's unique compositional principles, including the relationship between floral materials and the vase opening, in a clear, logical way accessible to all skill levels. The Sogetsu philosophy of “anytime, anywhere, for anyone” means this is a practice you can carry home.

Every detail is considered, from custom Kutani-ware vases to official Sogetsu scissors and kenzan, and a tranquil traditional garden. Tools are available to purchase so your Ikebana journey continues beyond Kanazawa.

For full cultural immersion, add a kimono dressing session (Option B) and arrive dressed in Japan's iconic garment before stepping into the tea room.

【About This Venue (Shoseian - Location A)】
This session takes place in Shoseian — a historic tea room with deep roots in Kanazawa's cultural heritage. Originally built within the estate of Kinaya Sanjiro, a celebrated tea enthusiast of the late Edo and Meiji periods, the tea room was later relocated to another Kanazawa residence before being gifted to the city.
