“Flowers become human in ikebana”    Sofu Teshigahara

   Welcome to Sogetsu School of Ikebana, London Branch.

Sogetsu London Branch was founded in December 2007 by directive of Sogetsu School of Ikebana headquarters, Tokyo, Japan. We provide information and opportunity to learn Sogetsu Ikebana in London area, the U.K.

Ikebana is Art of Japanese Flower Arrangement.

The principle of Sogetsu Ikebana is that the arrangement reflects the personality of the arranger and his/her mood at the time of arranging. Through regular practice, practitioners uncover their innate artistic creativity, leading to much pleasure, satisfaction and therefore well-being.

Sogetsu London Branch is membership organisation. Our members have access to our programme of events and workshops led by experienced teachers. Members also have an opportunity to exhibit at our annual exhibition.

Our aim is to support members’ growth, to foster community of ikebana enthusiasts, to reach out to wider community through the branch’s activities.

   We hope that you will join us to find joy of creating Sogetsu Ikebana.
