I first fell in love with flowers while I was working at a Swiss firm.
In 1991, I mastered basic floristry with Mrs. Rona Coleman of Flower Design
of Britain, England. Upon returning to Japan, I started to teach in Tokyo.
I continued to further my learning about floral design from the same flower
school. I have developed my own styles in both teaching and designing over
the years, although nowadays I enjoy contemporary floral designs in particular.
For the past couple of years I have been trained by Mr. Geoffrey Hughes.
My sincere thanks to him!
I enjoy teaching, love training my students, and would like to extend a
welcome to all people who love flowers. I am able to provide classes in
both Japanese and English.

Becoming a master florist required finishing 5 different level classes
and passing all of the examinations in addition to knowing a wide variety
of flowers and techniques. For example, flower names and species in
English and Latin, colour theories, and designing and planning skills,
among other aspects of floristry. Examination was performed by the British
international judge, Mrs. Lynda Owen in 2007.
Flowers are purchased from the flower market and are prepared and conditioned prior to each class. You may also use foliage which is available from my garden throughout the year.
