Join us for two hours of peace and tranquility in a beautiful setting, learning about the Japanese “way of writing”- SHODO
The philosophy of shodo is deeply rooted in Zen Buddhism. It emphasises the importance of mindfulness and concentration, which are essential qualities in both calligraphy and meditation. Shodo is practiced with an inner silence, calmness and a body-and-mind-connection.
Join us for two hours of peace and tranquility in a beautiful setting, learning about the Japanese “way of writing,” SHODO.
This class will be taught by Akemi Kauffmann, Shodo master from Oxford. In this 2- hour class, watch the beauty and flow of a master at work. Then, Akemi will teach you to write a select few kanji characters that you can take home to frame, if you so choose!
