This Ikebana workshop series approaches Ikebana as structure rather than ornament. Working through line, interval and restraint, the session explores negative space as an active force — where "heaven, human and earth" form a deliberate compositional axis.
Working with curated seasonal, rare and exotic florals, participants engage in focused, hands-on composition that privileges intention and proportion over decoration. The studio remains pared back and deliberate, allowing space for clarity and pause.
Accessible to beginners yet resonant for those drawn to art and material practice, the workshop extends into a considered pairing of small plates and wine, composed with the same restraint and attention to form.

Recent reviews of Ikebana Arranging Workshop

  • 4/5 from Stella Coleiro, attended Mar 2026: HI, the class was lovley. They greated you and made you feel comfortable. They were very attentive to your needs. You were welcomed with a drink and snacks. Then the class started. It was beautiful and a joy to work with such lovely flowers and create a new design. The teacher was informative and helped you when you needed help. The only issue was sometimes the language barrier, however it was workable and they were lovely. i enjoyed the class and would do it again. The only other issue is the parking in the area, however the class was great.
