From the moment of pickup I felt welcomed. Yu was a patient teacher and gave clear and simple step by step instructions. The workshop is simple and honest making the whole experience feel authentic to Kyoto. Ultimately, I was able to make both a wonderful Onigawara, and some amazing memories.

We had a fun time making onigawara! It was a creative and fun way to spend a few hours. It was a nice small group activity and was a nice break from walking everywhere. Once your creatures are done, it takes several days to bake and cure. They ship the pottery to your homes after that is done, so bring some cash to pay for shipping. Would highly recommend doing this! Would definitely do it again!

Amazing hands-on experience and family memories that will last a lifetime. The monsters we created will become family heirlooms and will forever remind us of our trip. Would recommend this activity over any sightseeing option without hesitation

It was an amazing class. We had a nice chat about Onigawara and Yuya's work while doing our own. Yuya was so patient and kind when he explained us each step. I have never done pottery before and am so happy how mine turned out. It is absolutely a highlight of my travel to Japan and I can only recommend it.

This was a wonderful class. Youya met us at the station with warm water which was very thoughtful since we were damp to the bone. He took us to his art studio and we made our own Onigawara sculptures. He was very charismatic and so patient. He explained what the Onigawara were and how he learned his craft from his master. It was a fantastic cultural experience. My whole family (especially my husband) thoroughly enjoyed this class and we all managed to create our own unique Onigawara. We all highly recommend this class.

Our instructor, Yuya, was outstanding! He hosted the class in his and his wife’s workshop. It was a treat to see their impressive work as professional artists and learn how to make onigawara ourselves. Yuya did a great job explaining each step, and it was a delight to learn from him! This was a standout experience from our trip to Japan. We highly recommend this to anyone traveling alone or with friends and family!

My girlfriend and I had a great time. Yuya is very patient and it was a lot of fun!
Our onigawaras also arrived back home no problem!
We both really enjoyed it, never thought I would have managed to be able to do it!
