You'll receive direct lessons from a professional Shamisen player with 20 years of experience.

It’s extremely rare to find Shamisen lessons in English within Japan.

In just 30 minutes, you'll be able to play a well-known traditional Japanese song! You can also immerse yourself in a meditative Shamisen session while enjoying the atmosphere of a traditional Japanese house.

We're looking forward to our session at the Shamisen Dojo!

Activity itinerary

Learning the Shamisen in English. This makes our facility one of Kyoto's rare gems. During the lesson, you can enjoy Japanese tea while having relaxed conversations with the owner, who is also a professional Shamisen player. The curriculum is thoughtfully designed to be beginner-friendly, ensuring that even first-time players can enjoy learning the Shamisen with ease. The highlight of the lesson, however, is the jam session with the owner, using traditional Japanese scales. The professional player will accompany you, offering guidance while encouraging you to freely play melodies and express yourself through the Shamisen. This groundbreaking program has even received recognition from experts in the Shamisen community. Don’t miss this opportunity to experience something truly special—come and join us! Additionally, we have lefty Shamisen available for left-handed players.
