Enjoyed the class, learned alot not only about Kintsugi but also some historical background. Exchanged ideas and how it relates to other Japanese art techniques. The instructor was patience and totally involved in giving us the skills to do it at home.

We spent the morning learning kintsugi with 3 other friends. Our instructors were really knowledgeable and patient. The class was really well paced and a great mix of information, crafting and breaks. We honestly had the best morning together learning how to bring back together our broken plate.

Laura Quinlivan • Attended Oct 2026



So much fun and the teacher was lovely

Maria Torrisi • Attended Oct 2026



I loved that the class was very small, and that everythjng we needed was individually set out for us on arrival. Our teacher Miyoko-san was very careful in how she instructed us, was encouraging and informative. It was also very interesting to learn about the history of the art form.
Halfway through we had a tea break - a Japanese tea and snacks.
Even though I was there on my own, we all chatted, had a few laughs and when finished admired each other's finished plate.
Miyoko-san asked us if we we minded if the class went go over time, but we were all quite happy to stay.
I can recommend this class for anyone who is interested as it was fun, easy and you go home with a beautiful item, the knowledge and all the information you need to try it at home, do another class like Kintsugi jewellery making or come back to the Dojo with your own broken china to put back together


Yunona Fateeva • Attended Oct 2026



The class was great. We really enjoyed it. The atmosphere was very cozy. We've been served some Japanese treats and green tea, which was lovely. Highly recommended.

Ashlyn McKay • Attended Oct 2026



After being interested in Kintsugi for a long time, I decided to try the traditional Kintsugi course. My teacher, Miyoko Sensei, was so patient and encouraging and coming back to learn with her for my second and third lessons was something I really looked forward to. The philosophy of Kintsugi is so beautiful and I’m very glad I’ve started to learn how to implement this beautiful art form!


Daniel Vo • Attended Oct 2026



We ent as a couple for our anniversary and have a great time. Miyoko was very good running the class.

Ross Banyai • Attended Oct 2026



We had an amazing afternoon learning about Kintsugi with Hisae-san. Her gentle nature and love for her art shone though as she directed us in preparing and completing our plates. We thorough recommend this workshop that I bought for my partners birthday. The whole process including communication was first rate. Thankyou

Linda de Vincentiis • Attended Oct 2026



An Absolutely Wonderful Experience!
I can honestly say this was one of the best workshops I have ever attended!
I have been fascinated by the beautiful Japanese art of Kintsugi for some time, but yesterday’s two-hour workshop exceeded all my expectations.
Our teacher, Hisae-san, was absolutely wonderful - kind, gentle, patient and incredibly knowledgeable. She explained each step so clearly and thoughtfully, creating a relaxed and welcoming environment where learning felt effortless and enjoyable.
There was something incredibly satisfying about taking a broken ceramic plate and transforming it into something beautiful again. Not only did I learn a fascinating new technique, but I also discovered a creative passion that I genuinely want to continue exploring.
I left the workshop feeling inspired, accomplished and excited to learn more. In fact, I enjoyed it so much that I’ve already booked a four-hour workshop for my birthday!
A heartfelt thank you to Hisae-san for sharing her knowledge and passion so generously. I cannot recommend this experience highly enough, whether you’re simply curious about Kintsugi or looking for a meaningful new creative outlet.
Five stars simply aren’t enough! ✨
