This is a five-day training program scheduled for April 13-17（Mon.-Fri.）2026.
Please note that our program only has five spaces available. Those interested in participating should apply early!
Our program is oriented toward non-Japanese speaking professionals involved in Japanese garden design, creation, management and nurturing, but we welcome participation from students too. Of course, clear and precise English interpretation will be provided as part of course instruction.
This will be a “Kyoto-style” seminar focusing on the unique spatial composition of Kyoto gardens. Kyoto has all kinds of Japanese gardens, but perhaps the most versatile of them all are the gardens seen in our city’s numerous Buddhist temples. These “temple gardens” are not constrained by any form, but instead use the unique features of the natural topography to seamlessly blend a wide range of styles into a compelling whole. There is possibly no better setting in which to absorb the limitless possibilities of the Japanese garden tradition and learn how to apply them to different settings.
