I loved this class. I learned a new way of arranging flowers. The instructor was wonderful explaining how it's done. I look forward to another class of this.
The class was excellent. Our teacher was confident and kind as she instructed us. We also came home with our flower arrangements which are still pretty.
Nakaba is very welcoming. Her personal story, passion for teaching as well as inspiration has left me wanting to learn more about the art & beauty of Ikebana floral design. I look forward to attending more classes with her.
Excellent class, very knowledgeable teacher, beautiful end product and would love to see another type of Ikebana class offered by her.
This was a wonderful new thing to try. It will take a few more classes to understand some of the concepts. But it was enjoyable and I'd love to take more classes to understand more fully.
The instructor was wonderful. She was very organized and knowledgeable. She treated everyone with respect. I would love to take another class by this instructor.
I want you to know how much I enjoyed Ikebana class. All of us students were enjoying ourselves. Nakaba was an excellent instructor.
Great experience. Instructor was inspiring and supportive.
Fabulous instructor. I especially appreciated the one on one time she took with each student. I learned as much when she was helping others as when she was helping me.
I loved this class. The instructor was very nice, educated, and helped out the students explore their own creativity with guidance. It was a very fun class!
Our instructor had knowledge for everything and well instructed. We are planning to take another class next month again.
Thank you for your wonderful class and look forward to doing more with you😊
Excellent class. Learned a lot about Ikebana and the arrangement was so easy and pretty.
I loved this class, instruction was helpful and hands-on, she was great! I have been adorning my first Ikebana arrangement all day from this class.
The teacher is very knowledgeable and nice.
The instructor was most patient and hands on, I loved this class and love looking at my beautiful floral creations in my home. The instructor was easy to understand and I highly recommend her to my family and friends for future floral classes.
I love that Nakaba discussed the history of Ikebana, and what each plant signifies. It enhanced the class. She took time with each of the students to guide them in decorating their floral pieces. It was a very calming class. I didn’t feel rushed to get my work done, as with some classes. I definitely needed this class.
I very much enjoyed the Ikebana classes that I have taken so far, I am signed up for more. Thank you for a lovely experience and learning opportunity, my floral arrangements are still gorgeous today and in full bloom. 🙂🙂
Wonderful teacher!
Loved this course. It is fascinating!
Energetic , informative . Love my arrangement.
Nakaba is professional and very personable. I enjoyed learning the history of Ikebana. The hands on part of the class was fun, her verbal instructions were very clear and easy to follow. Nakaba was also provided personal 1x1 assistance (as required/requested) at each step. She always asks permission before touching a students design and is very patient with any student asking questions.
I absolutely loved this class! The teacher, Nakaba, was wonderful. The supplies were very good and the flowers and greens she provided were quite fresh! Her teaching style was so nice... Well- prepared, started with a description and some slides for examples. Explained processes well and also went around individually to see if we had questions. YES! I am already enrolled in the next two!
Thank for reminding us on the daily water. I had a wonderful time with you and the other students. I can see we all enjoyed each others company. Your teaching is so sweet and helpful. Using colorful peppers was amazing.
I can't wait for your next class.
Thoroughly enjoyed the class.
Nakaba made me feel like a pro with my floral arrangement. She was hands on throughout the session.
Great instructor.
Thank you so much for your wonderful class!
I loved the class and my Thanksgiving arrangement!! You are a very talented lady as well as great teacher.
What a interesting and busy time to do a beautiful creation of flowers and greenery. Looking forward to your next class.
I really enjoyed the class. I have enrolled in the next class.
Instructor’s Note:
Teaching Ikebana is deeply meaningful to me, and I am truly grateful to all who have shared their experience. Each class is a shared journey of learning, presence, and creativity.
My intention is to create a calm and respectful space where students feel supported and free to explore their own expression while learning the principles and history of Ikebana. It is a joy to guide each person and witness the unique beauty of every arrangement.
Thank you for your openness and trust. I look forward to practicing together again.
