Highly recommended!

谢谢你的分享！😊 很开心你喜欢这次的体验课，还留下了和服拍照的美好回忆。期待下次再见！ 
If you think you will be learning very little in 2hr experience class, you may be surprised, there is so much you can learn in 2hrs. Yet, there are still loads to learn after. I highly recommend you to learn here, the sensei are patient and instructions are clear, you just need to follow one step after the other. The space is welcoming and the 4 person group size is great, everyone has sensei’s attention, she may correct us in time or we may have questions to ask or need help, sensei will be able to attend to everyone of us. The tools and materials provided are clean, the packaging is also cute and sturdy. Will go back for more learning, there are 8 levels to certification. I love how the prices are so transparent. Worth giving their workshop a try.

Can’t wait to see you back for more classes and to continue the wagashi journey together! 
Thoroughly enjoy the experience workshop. It gives a taste of whether you would be interested in making wagashi. The instructor was very clear in her explanations and patient. She ensures that all of 6 of us are able to keep up with her pace before proceeding to the next step.

Thank you for sharing your experience! 😊 We’re really happy to hear you enjoyed the workshop and found the pace and guidance just right. Hope to see you again if you decide to continue your wagashi journey! 
Attended wagashi experience workshop, it was fun with clear instructions provided. Highly recommended to anyone who’s interested in wagashi making and wants to give it a try. Would love to try more classes in future when I have the time and chance.
If you’re curious about learning about Japanese Wagashi, this is a great place to start learning. Signing up for classes was easy (I did it via WhatsApp) and they are very accommodating to your scheduling needs if any. The actual lesson was also easy to follow and the instructor explains each step thoroughly (and also why we do things a specific way) which is very helpful for beginners. They also sell macha based drinks and a small variety of Japanese desserts at the side so you can have a bite once lessons are over. Overall, a great place to learn about Wagashi in general.
Good experiment in this workshop !
Nice environment and teacher are patient teaching ☺️

Conclusion: Overall, the Wagashi workshop was an unforgettable experience that combined creativity, culture, and culinary delight. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in exploring the art of Japanese confections and enjoying a fun and educational activity.

Very cute and friendly staff, I really enjoyed my time there and recommend it for everyone to try, it is very nice and the environment is so great. You should try their matcha as well! One of the best and they even have other options for milk.
I had an amazing time learning with Sammie. She is very attentive and gave clear instruction how to prepare dough and craft 4 beautiful pieces of wagashi. Thank you for the experience.
The teacher is very patient and nice..the session was fun! The outcome are really cute!!
Came here to do their beginner wagashi workshop with my wife and we had a blast. The workshop was straightforward and surprisingly easy. Location wasn’t difficult to find and there were plenty of restaurants within the building to grab a snack before the class. Do bring your own water as beverages aren’t provided
Had so much fun in the wagashi experience workshop. The sensei was very friendly and instructions given were clear and easy to follow. The wagashi were sooo cute! Afterwards we took pictures in kimonos too. Thanks to all the staffs who were very helpful and friendly for this awesome experience.
I just attended the Beginner Level 1 class 💯 Very comfortable classroom, just nice for 1 instructor with 5 students. Ingredients and equipment are all well prepared, very hygienic and cozy environment. Instructor was very patience and guided us through every step with no rush. Very great learning experience and will definitely come back for level 2 🥰
Take this class for my solo birthday treat, you’ll love it! It’s a small group with two instructors, and it’s so relaxing. It’s really calming and helps me unwind from my hectic life; it’s like therapy for my brain.
Great experience with patient and knowledgeable teachers. We had a great time and will definitely recommend this to anyone wanting to learn more about the craft!
The instructions are clear. Overall experience is fantastic. The end result is delightful.
I had a really good experience learning how to craft the Nerikiri designs. The instructor was patient and helpful in ensuring that we were able to follow, and demonstrated clearly what we were supposed to do. The class has sparked my interest to learn more about making Nerikiri.
Overall, the pace and size of the class was also just nice and we were able to learn comfortably, and in a pleasant setting. I also had a fun time wearing the 👘 after the class!
I am really happy with what I took home at the end of the class 😃

I attended Yu Wagashi’s nerikiri wagashi experience workshop lately and absolutely enjoyed it. I was only interested in buying some to eat when I was searching on Google for a place, but discovered they’re offering classes for making nerikiri wagashi at different level and decided to give it a try.
The space for workshop was comforting and welcoming, the number of participants was 6 during my visit. For someone who has attended quite a number of workshops like this, I feel like this is a good amount of participants, and the instructor was also very attentive and friendly in guiding everyone throughout the process.
For the experience workshop, the ingredients and tools are all prepared, you can just come empty handed and just experience and enjoy the process of making nerikiri wagashi, with two pieces with different designs that you can take home the end of the day.
I’d recommend the experience workshop for anyone who’s interested in learning how to make nerikiri wagashi at an entry level that doesn’t want to go through the process of preparing the ingredients, tools and making the dough. It’s a fun experience, and a very calming one with a friendly and attentive instructor.

Highly recommended! Very good experiential workshop that cultivates self care and mindfulness. The instructor and assistants are helpful and friendly. After the workshop, you also get to try on Kimono for free. Can take photos and capture your art and memorable moment. Will definitely come again
It was an awesome experience. Great choice if you’re looking to spend quality time with your besties.
And apart from dessert making, we get to tried the kimono as well. The staffs so friendly, accommodating and patient.
Thank you for having us! 🥳

I enrolled for the Intensive course one&to-one with sensei Kelsey. AWESOME AND ULTRA ZEN!!! The best training experience. I don’t have any experience in the art and learning from scratch. With the calm, patient and clear guidance, I made 6 designs from beginner to advance needle cutting. It was from 11am till 8pm ish, and sensei was in no rush to finish the class to ensure I get the needle cutting technique right. I have signed up another needle cutting course after this, and will be bringing my nieces for beginner lessons because it is a valuable experience for the girls who love J culture. I would recommend those who have time to take the course from beginner, intermediate and then advance cause you can often come back into this zen zone that is just so tranquil. I aiming high to train myself to become a wagashi artist now!!
Enjoyed the beginner level 1 class under Teacher Sammy guidance. Loved the experience.
Attended the Experience Workshop. What a thrill! Instructions were clear and there were other members on hand to assist if needed.
In the fast paced life we live in, this allowed me time to slow down and appreciate the process of creating something beautiful and yummy to take home and reluctantly devour(it was not perfect, but still too pretty to cut into).
Thank you everyone at Yu Wagashi for the memorable experience.

Participated in their experience nerikiri workshop for my cousin’s birthday and we loved every moment at Yu Wagashi. Teacher was very sweet and knowledgeable and instructions were easy to understand. Very beginner friendly! Thank you for making my cousin’s already special day even more beautiful ✨
Had a wonderful workshop with Yu Wagashi! The sensei is experienced and thoughtful. Ingredients were provided in advance and you just have to be there on time to learn. Fun experience as you can do it together with your loved one and friend and you don’t have to be skillful as their workshop is for beginners also. The workshop is definitely worth to try!
Have a really great time at here,Teacher Kelsey very helpful, knowledgeable,patient and friendly

The workshop is awesome!! The instructor was knowledgeable and patient, guiding us through each step with clear instructions. Highly recommend this workshop to anyone interested in Japanese culture or looking to expand their dessert-making skills.
Attended a wagashi workshop with my family and it was fantastic!
Kelsey, our instructor, was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. The wagashi was delicious, though slightly less sweetness would make it perfect.
The highlight was definitely wearing kimonos and capturing memorable family photos.
The atmosphere was wonderful, and Kelsey patiently guided us through the entire experience. Highly recommend!

Amazing workshop session! The teacher is very knowledgeable and patiently guided throughout the process, which makes it easy to follow. The environment is very comfortable, definitely a good place to spend time with friends, family or even solo!
I tried their Nerikiri Wagashi Experience Workshop; it was a great introduction to Japanese dessert making. Teacher Kelsey is a good teacher; her simple explanations and encouraging attitude made for a positive learning experience. I quite like the Christmas themed nerikiri designs; they were cute and fitting for the festive season! Highly recommended for those who want to dip their toes into Japanese dessert making or are looking for a fun experience.
