    Excellent experience

    Justine_B, Mar 2026
    Firstly, everything happens in a very authentic place - shoguns’ leisure park! Experience itself is very calming, you also learn a bit about the “mechanics” of zen meditation and then have a lovely tea and chat. Plus, get your name transcription! Highly recommended!
