Discover Zen Through Brush & Ink – A Japanese Calligraphy Experience

Step into a peaceful space and explore the beauty of Zen calligraphy.
In this meditative workshop, you will learn to create two iconic Zen symbols:
Ensō – the circle of enlightenment, presence, and completeness,
and 心 (Kokoro) – the character for “heart–mind,” the centre of our emotions and awareness.

This workshop is designed for beginners and for anyone seeking a quiet, grounding creative experience.

✨ What you’ll experience:

  • How to hold and guide a traditional calligraphy brush with calm intention

  • The meaning and philosophy behind Ensō and 心

  • Basic brush techniques used in Zen calligraphy

  • How to express mindfulness, breath, and presence through ink and movement

No prior calligraphy experience or Japanese language skills are needed.
All materials are provided — just come with an open mind and enjoy a serene moment of creativity.

Let’s slow down, breathe deeply, and write with clarity and presence — one mindful stroke at a time.🙏
