Japan is full of beauty, delicate&nbsp;details, pretty patterns and intricate designs.&nbsp;An aesthetic full of ancient ideals like&nbsp;wabi (transient and stark&nbsp;beauty), sabi (the&nbsp;beauty&nbsp;of natural patina and ageing), and yugen (profound grace and subtlety), Japanese culture is a treasure just waiting to be discovered. 
 
Delve into this spectacular&nbsp;world of culture&nbsp;and traditions as you learn traditional flower arrangement in an Ikebana course. Since you&#39;ve travelled all the way to Japan, it would be a waste not to experience this incredible&nbsp;culture!&nbsp; 
 
The Japanese art of flower arrangement, ikebana, meaning living flowers, is a tradition that dates back to the&nbsp;&nbsp;7th century. It may seem like a complex and specialised&nbsp;art form, but this isn&#39;t the case. By the end of this course, you&#39;ll have&nbsp;created your own stunning &#39;living flower&#39; piece! 
 
While you learn ikebana, you&#39;ll also gain a better understanding of the Japanese view of nature and the history of this art form.&nbsp; 
 
Your day starts with an introduction to the essentials of ikebana and&nbsp;its history&nbsp;and background.&nbsp;Flower arranging used to be a required &quot;mannerism&quot; for well-educated men, such as samurais or monks and began as&nbsp;floral offerings&nbsp;made at altars. 
 
Next, you&#39;ll watch a basic demonstration and instruction to prepare you for creating your own ikebana work. Watch as your teacher&nbsp;shows you the basics of arranging and displaying each flower and petal before attempting your own design.&nbsp; 
 
Finally, delve into the hands-on aspect of the class! Craft your own floral piece and truly experience this unique&nbsp;part of Japanese culture. 
Your teacher will be available if you need some help throughout the process. 
 
This is a 1.5-hour class.&nbsp; It runs Mon, Wed, Friday 10:00 am - 11:30 am and Tues, Thurs, Saturday&nbsp;4:00 pm - 5:30 pm
