This five-day course is open to all and includes the weekend of 28-29 September.

A unique opportunity to learn and practice Kado-Ikebana.

Kado-Ikebana is a contemplative art practice that reveals the relationship between nature, space and our own life force. The ultimate goal of Kado-Ikebana is not to make beautiful flower arrangements, but to expand our heart/mind, to be present in each moment, to work with our obstacles and to develop respect and appreciation for ourselves, others and all life.

This practice is based on the practice of meditation which is also taught and practiced during this program.
