Ikebana has its origins in religious flower offerings. Initially practiced only by priests and nobles, the art of flower arranging later spread through all levels of Japanese society. The art of Ikebana expresses a precise observation of nature. Under the guidance of Ikebana teacher Akiko Kaneko, you will first receive an introduction to the principles of the Ohara school. In the workshop, you will learn how flowers, branches and leaves can be harmoniously arranged in harmony with the season. Suitable for participants without prior experience.
