My experience for this class was great! Out teacher Miyoko-sensei were attentive to each students and super helpful!
It's a good beginner class to Kintsugi but noted that the plate is ornamental only so those who want the plate as tableware will need to do their longer class.

A really interesting small kintsugi workshop. Noriko brought some calmness to the course with her beautiful soft voice. She explained everything carefully and was hands on helpful. Everything provided, plus a wonderful cup of green tea and biscuits. Highly recommend. Janice

--What was the teacher like?
The teacher (Noriko) was super friendly, knowledgeable and kind. She was so calm, and an amazing instructor. The entire time was engaging and we were so grateful for the experience! Nothing but praise for her.
--How was the venue (if applicable)?
Fine! It was just a small studio / room, and suited the purpose.
--If materials were provided, did you like them?
Yes! The teacher went through and explained all of the materials, and made suggestions for where we could also acquire our own.
--Was the experience good value for money?
Yes! We were all successful to mend the plate, and also she gave a small tea and biscuit snack which was very nice.
--OVERALL: It's a great experience for a couple or a small group of friends. Very unique. I highly recommend this teacher.

Noriko-sensei made sure we all walked away with beautiful plates and the knowledge of kintsugi's history. Really enjoyed the experience and now I know not only the history of kintsugi, but where to buy materials so I can do my own modern kintsugi at home.
The Japanese snacks and tea were also very good. 10/10 would recommend :)

Fantastic class with a really kind and patient teacher. Even though we went overtime she never made us feel like we were a bother. Her passion for her craft is infectious and the fact she gave us tea as well was such a lovely touch. Highly recommend! Kintsugi isn't as easy as it looks, I have new respect for the craft!

Every thing was very good though I don't feel very confident to do at home without someone to ask for guidance.

Absolutely loved this workshop! Our teacher was great, not only taking about what to do, but the history of Kintsugi so we have a real understanding of the origins of this craft. Feeling very inspired to apply this to items that are broken from home, friends and family. Would recommend this to anyone interested in repurposing their broken crockery.

The Kintsugi class was wonderful! Jun and his wife made us feel very welcome. The philosophy behind Kintsugi is beautiful. It was so well organised and really hands on with the help we were given. Excited to be able to buy a kit on the night, so I can start my precious repair. A great experience all round!
