Kalligraphie und Matcha Teezeremonie

Satomi-san was a patient, hospitable, and affirming teacher. She not only carefully taught me the intricacies of calligraphy, but also the history and culture behind it. It proved to be a very contemplative and calming experience. The lesson in a traditional tea ceremony afterwards and the amazing matcha tasting were a wonderful end to the experience. This lesson was a major highlight on my trip and since I got to keep my calligraphy papers, I will always be able to remember it.

I recently had the opportunity to visit Oh! Mama with a party of five and it was a truly beautiful experience. Satomi-san, the hostess, was incredibly kind and welcoming to us all. She takes great care to walk you through the process of learning how to make proper strokes and the purpose of each tool provided to you. The calligraphy portion of our experience was a great meditative practice, and left us wanting to practice more after the fact. In addition to that the tea ceremony was not only informative, but memorizing. Satomi-san acts with intention in each of her movements through out the process, and it shows just how dedicated she is to preserving such a beautiful tradition and art form. If you have to opportunity to come here you absolutely should. This immersive workshop left a strong impression on us that I'm sure we won't soon forget. Thank you Satomi-san for the wonderful afternoon!

We had an absolutely excellent calligraphy and tea ceremony class in Tokyo! Our teacher, Satomi was incredibly methodical, patient, and knowledgeable. She took the time to explain the history and technique behind each movement, making the experience deeply engaging and easy to follow. Her warm hospitality and patient guidance made us feel incredibly welcome. If you are looking for an authentic and high-quality cultural experience in Tokyo, we highly recommend booking a class with her at Oh Mama.
