Toyohashi is the city with the most Kodomo School calligraphy (shuji) classes. At community centers and meeting halls across the city — 富本 (Tomimoto), 牛川通 (Ushikawadori), 三ツ相 (Mitsuai), 曙 (Akebono), 牧野 (Makino), 大橋通 (Ohashidori), 野依台 (Noyoridai), 東幸 (Higashimiyuki) and more — you can choose a day from Monday to Saturday. Children learn both pencil handwriting (kakikata / kohitsu) and brush calligraphy (shodo / mohitsu), and can also work on their school handwriting assignments. Brush-writing grade exams (kyu and dan) can be taken at the classroom they usually attend (there are no exams for pencil handwriting). If you are searching for a “shuji” or “kakikata” (handwriting) class, you have come to the right place.

Common questions in Toyohashi

About our calligraphy classes in Toyohashi

Should I look for a “shuji” (calligraphy practice) class or a “shodo” (calligraphy) class?

Kodomo School’s “kakikata shodo” class teaches both: pencil handwriting (kakikata / kohitsu) and brush calligraphy (shodo / mohitsu). Whether you are looking for a shuji, kakikata or shodo class, the same classroom covers all of them.

Can you also help with my child’s kakizome (New Year calligraphy) homework from school?

Yes. Children can work on their school handwriting assignments, such as kakizome, in class. We also hold short-term lessons during the summer and winter holidays.

Can my child take soroban as well?

Yes. At 牛川通 (Ushikawadori), 牧野 (Makino), 大橋通 (Ohashidori), 三ノ輪 (Minowa), サンヒル若松 (Sunhill Wakamatsu) and 大岩南 (Oiwa-minami), both classes are held at the same venue on different days of the week.

Calligraphy at Kodomo School

The power to write is the power to think.

Correct posture and stroke order, and tome, hane and harai (the stops, hooks and sweeps of each stroke). Children learn both brush writing and pencil handwriting, and the time spent carefully studying the model builds neat handwriting and a calm mind. They can also work on their school handwriting assignments. Brush-writing grade exams (kyu and dan) can be taken at the classroom they usually attend (there are no exams for pencil handwriting).
