We absolutely loved this experience. All three of us (my friend and daughter (adult-age) loved everything about it, the setting, the making of the sweets and tea, the sharing of information/history—most of all, we were so touched by the kind attention given to us by our wonderful teachers: Emiko, Junko, and Ayaka. We felt that they put so much effort preparing and during the session to ensure that we had this lovely time. We would highly recommend it!

Sakura San welcomed us into her lovely home. We had the opportunity to work hands on to prepare traditional mochi dango and daifuku. I learned so much both about Japanese traditions and how these are eaten and gained the confidence to try them at home in the US. Worth every penny. A one of a kind experience.
