Top Osaka Prefecture Craft Classes

Currently, I run a ramen shop in Osaka, and I will rent out the shop for participants outside of business hours and teach them how to make ramen. I will prepare the soup and noodles because they take time to make. You can choose your favorite flavor of ramen and choose your favorite toppings. Finally, eat the ramen you made yourself and you're done.

Explore Osaka just like a local: On a bicycle. Pedal through the streets of the city on your way to its best sites, including Osaka Castle, Shitennoji Temple, and Shin Sekai, and follow your guide to some lesser-known attractions. Along the way, get insight into this fascinating city; its contribution to the history of feudal Japan, its distinctive dialect and culture, and its remarkable food scene—which you get a taste of by refueling with lunch at a local spot.

We will explain the history of kintsugi and lacquer for about an hour, and then you will have the opportunity to powder gold (23K gold) which is the final step in traditional kintsugi. Basically, lacquer is used for this workshop and gold is sprinkled on it. Therefore, after the trial, we will hand over the powdered plate at least 5-7 days later, or we will ship to your home for an additional fee. If you are in a hurry and would like to take home the kintsugi plate on the same day, please inform us. After taking this work shop you will know about traditional kintsugi and what is lacquer.

You can experience making "TEMARI" (Japanese traditional hand-embroidered balls) using plant-dyed threads. The Temari made with your favorite color of embroidery threads will be unique and the only one in the world. The Temari baseball will be prepared at my side. If you have any preferred color, please let me know at least 3 days in advance.

You can have a real Kimono experience. We have a lot of line ups about kimono. Also you can enjoy Japanese culture making Tsumaki -zaiku accessories.

Learn to roll sushi like a pro during this sushi-making class in Osaka that includes dinner. Get a hands-on introduction to the art of sushi from a professional instructor, then sit down to enjoy your creations, along with other Japanese snacks. This personalized sushi course, limited to just eight participants, offers upgrade options to sample Japanese sake and beer.

Kintsugi is the Japanese art of putting broken pieces back with lacquer and gold pigments. It’s a metaphor for embracing your flaws and imperfections. Rather than hiding our imperfections, it encourages us to accept our “flaws” – and even to call attention to them. Kintsugi also exemplifies the spirit of wabi-sabi. It has started to be acknowledged worldwide now. You will see it in many movies and shows now. It's a great way to learn Japanese tradition and about a way of our living. No worries if you have no idea what Kintsugi is. A local Kintsugi artist will explain you what Kintsugi is before moving onto the hands-on experience.
