Japanese Calligraphy: The Art of Respect

After a popular event on Japanese Calligraphy and Meditation and based on a number of requests to explore the subject further, we are excited to launch a series of workshops to experience Japanese calligraphy, poems and meditation in depth.

Each event we will centre around a new symbol: we will learn its meaning, discuss a poem about it, meditate and experience the power of the concept through a calligraphy practice. 

During the short meditation you will be invited to a moment of alignment between your body and soul, to find a channel through which you can listen to your inner voice. This approach helps to concentrate and sense the power of now.

This time we will focus on character KEI and explore The Art of Respect.

This calligraphy session doesn’t have a goal to master the technique or achieve an excellence in the process. Instead, what you are more likely to gain after this session is a state of peace, a feeling of wholeness, a sense of alignment.

For the more immersive experience, please, prepare calligraphy tools before the session: we will use calligraphy ink, a brush and several sheets of paper. If you already have them from previous events with Azumi Uchitani – you can continue using them. If not – you can order a calligraphy kit online or purchase items at your local art store.


We are sorry! This event has ended. You can book your place at one of our upcoming events.
