I have been practicing Ikebana for over 20 years. As a foreign exchange student in the U.S., I realized I knew little about my own cultural background. Upon returning to Japan, I began exploring Ikebana, drawn to its connection with nature. Now, Ikebana is more than just a hobby; it’s a way to connect with people and a lifelong passion.

I am an Ikebana artist with 9 years of experience teaching Japanese and international students in Nagoya. I have held exhibitions in Nagoya and am actively involved in international cultural exchanges. I also conduct online classes for international students and annual workshops in Taipei, Taiwan. In addition to regular classes, I offer workshops and demonstrations at schools and hotels. I will be introducing a special 6-session course for 2025.
