I had such a wonderful time at the kokedama workshop! It was fun and surprisingly easy to follow even though I had no prior experience. Azumi was absolutely lovely — patient, encouraging, and so passionate about her craft that it made the whole experience even more enjoyable. You can really feel how much she loves what she does, and it shines through in the way she teaches. Highly recommend!

The kokedama master class was easy to follow given Azumi san’s explanations and set up of materials. The background and examples mentioned by Azumi as to how kokedama came about were very interesting. I highly recommend this class to anyone interested in bringing their own piece of nature indoors!
