Is this a good one?
- Against others of its kind
- At $217 a day this sits right at the $193 median for art, design & media. It is cheaper than 3 of the 12 art, design & media options mapped here.
- Other things to learn in Japan
- 7 other options in Japan, starting with tea ceremony and ikebana in Kyoto from $250.
- When to go
- Workable across 9 months of the year — Mar-Nov. Outside that the season is against you, not the school.
- How long it really takes
- Most people give it 3 days, but the honest range is 2 to 10. That spread is wide because how far you take it is up to you.
