Definitely worth it - It was such a calm, creative, mindful experience, and you get to take home something very special that symbolises the power and beauty of restorative healing and beautiful culture of Okinawa, Japan. Even though mine was not a masterpiece I still loved the end result. The teachers were very kind, helpful and lovely. Thank you

So much fun - This was a wonderful experience. They were excellent at explaining what to do and helping you create something to take home. I highly recommend this. You don’t really need to be highly skilled to get something that looks ok. Thanks for a wonderful day.

Learning a Tradition - The experience was fantastic. Very stress free to learn something new. The staff is very helpful and keep things simple. Each step is a fun to learn and the history presented at the end for self reading is very insightful. I would definitely do it again in the future. I love the fact that you get to take home what you make the same day. I would definitely recommend anyone visiting the island to do this experience of you never have done it before. A wonderful memory to take home.

Fun and relaxing - I went alone and no one else was in the studio besides the owners which allowed for a nice quiet, relaxing crafting time. They go over and chdck each step to make sure you can go home with a beautiful piece of art to remember. While it is not food-safe, it is still quite useful as a trinket/ key holder/ jewlery dish.

Great experience. I... - Great experience. I would’ve liked to hear more about what kintsugi is, how they got into the business, etc. Just some more information because you’re pretty much taught how to do it then left alone so unless you go with a group or enjoy chatting to strangers in another group they don’t converse with you too too much lol But overall the process was very cool and they are so so sweet
