Ikebana Classes

  • Why Study Ikebana?

    The practice of Ikebana cultivates well-being - that sense we feel when our hands, eyes, and imaginations are absorbed in the limitless originality of nature. Develop your creative self-expression and explore the beauty of nature through this contemporary and dynamic art form.

    I teach year round in the San Francisco Bay Area, offering in depth ongoing classes as well as experiential workshops for diverse groups .

    Each class includes a demonstration of techniques, designs, practice time, and review with the instructor & class.

  • STUDENT FEEDBACK

    Suzanne: This Ikebana class is just MORE than I imagined: More fun, more discipline, more absorbing and much more than floral decoration.

    Marion: Ikebana is the best gift I have ever given myself! New friendships, deeper ways of seeing, more gratitude.

    June: It's very modern but classical at the same time. The class brings out the best in each of us.
