Fun Kokedama classes / courses in Sydney

Kokedama plants are made up of a variety of different plants, from ferns to philodendrons to orchids and more. But what makes them really stand out is the Kokedama ball, a Japanese moss ball that makes up the base. It’s this element that allows for Kokedama to be hung from the ceiling or rest gracefully on a stand instead of planted in a pot. In order to learn how to make Kokedama you’ll want to get the tips from the best instructors in Sydney. ClassBento has the complete list of the best Kokedama classes in Sydney so that you can get started.

As Kokedama becomes more and more of a trend, more and more floristry classes are springing up throughout the city. You can take a workshop at Bondi Beach or sign up for a class in Redfern. A Kokedama workshop for beginners will teach you how to make Kokedama using the best succulent plants and the techniques that bind the quintessential Japanese moss ball. Learn to make your own DIY Kokedama with our expert teachers, who will show you what specific ingredients to use, and how to combine them to make a sturdy and beautiful moss ball. If you’re willing to get your hands dirty at these fun Sydney workshops, you’ll walk away with gorgeous indoor plant to hang in your home or give as a gift.

A kokedama class is one of the most fun things to do in Sydney with friends and loved ones. If you’ve been looking for unique romantic things to do in Sydney, get your hands dirty at a class for your next date night. Or, add a Kokedama workshop to your next girls night or upcoming hens party. They’re also a must do in Sydney for birthdays and celebrations, and even corporate wellness programs.

With the guidance of a passionate florist, you’ll become an expert in this popular plant in no time. Before you take a Kokedama class, these plants may seem impossible to recreate. But your experienced instructor will be there to break down the process and teach you how to make Japanese moss balls with just a few supplies. By the time the class is over, you’ll have your own Kokedama plants to take home, and you’ll have the confidence to make them at home.

Health benefits of Kokedama

Kokedama plants naturally invoke a sense of tranquillity and balance. They’re beautiful to look at, but making them can give you even more benefits for your health. A Kokedama workshop is also a lesson in patience and focus, and you’ll be far too invested in your new hobby to think about anything else. Plus, it helps to have dirty enough hands that you won’t be tempted to reach for your phone! Once you learn Kokedama you’ll know that creating these beautiful plants is like having a meditation practice.

Chris was fantastic & a really great teacher. The atmosphere of his shop & his friendly personality really set the mood for an enjoyable experience. With the assistance & guidance from Chris we crafted our own amazing works of art. The high quality of material that was provided for us to work with certainly made our Kokedamas look top notch. Enjoyed it so much I would go again.

I did the Kokedama workshop on the 21st September at Merchant and Green Florist. It was a reasonable group of six persons surrounded with beautiful flowers and plants. An enjoyable and full of fun afternoon. The teacher (Orla) showed us how to make the Kokedama. And she patiently guided everyone of us to the end of the class, and answer any questions promptly.
I brought home different sizes of Kokedama with succulents and maiden hair.

I got this workshop as a gift for my hubby who loves gardening and was looking to learn more about kokedama. Chris was our teacher. He was friendly and warm and a good instructor. The tasks were sequenced well, in increasing difficulty and we felt confident with each new task. The materials we used were of great quality and we got to take home the kokedama we created. We had guests over the next day and they were super impressed with our creations!
We really recommend this class!

Enjoyed this workshop very much. The venue was beautiful and very conducive to working with plants, being surrounded by them and also beautiful flowers. The teacher was knowledgable and had a supportive, easy manner. Everyone in class achieved a great result and I was very happy with the three Kokodamas I bought home. The skills are something that I will be able to use again and again on my own, but we were given some insider hints that made the whole process much easier. It was a relaxed, but productive, way to spend a Saturday morning. A super successful workshop, thank you!

Located in a quiet and leafy street, this workshop was so much fun and set at a really leisurely pace. The morning didn't feel rushed and we were taught kokedama in a set of really easy to digest steps and were guided throughout the whole process. Ian always offered help or advice when we needed it and made it such a great experience. Would highly recommend!

It was a great day and Iain the teacher is so friendly and relaxed, we all loved hearing about the kokadama and all other plants/flowers.
