We've worked hard to improve our workshops and are excited for you to check it out. :)

This two hour class is recommended for those who want to experience authentic, genuine connections with Japanese locals in a laid back environment, different from the hustle and bustle of sight-seeing. While we can answer any inquiries via mail/messages in English, our on-site staff is not fluent in English. They will try their best to communicate with you using google translate. :) An English language instruction booklet will also be provided.

You’ll leave here with a lovely treasure to remind you of your Japan trip, and a deeper understanding of Kagoshima’s history, customs and culture. You will also enjoy our selection of delicious local craft teas and fun snacks.

Class sizes are limited in order to ensure that each guest will receive personalized attention. However, if your party is larger please reach out to us to discuss alternatives.

Thank you and we’re looking forward to meeting you!

Kagoshima is full of exhilarating sights, but if you need a little break between
your travels, why not relax in an inviting, cozy space and try crafting with Yakusugi? Yakusugi refers to ancient Japanese cedar that is only found on the island of Yakushima, designated as Japan’s very first UNESCO world heritage site. Because of its great beauty and distinct aroma, it is considered a precious wood and, in Japanese culture, symbolizes protection against bad luck and evil spirits. Even if you can’t make it all the way out to Yakushima, you can still invoke in the power and mysticism of the forest in our one-of-a-kind, hands-on workshop! Pick out your favorite piece of gorgeous Yakusugi cedar (that was sustainably recovered from buried wood) and, using various weights of sanding paper, carefully shape it into a custom keyholder. Your host will guide you with easy to follow instructions and share with you their insights on Kagoshima and its abundant, diverse landscapes. This is a special experience offered only by Fun Fan Try and can be found nowhere else in Kagoshima City!
