"The Nagomi art class was so enjoyable, therapeutic and fun. I learnt new techniques and skills that I could also share some tips of it with my family around me. At home it served as meaningful and meditative family bonding time. And most amazingly, since I've introduced Nagomi to my mother-in-law, I feel she has gained confidence and a newfound joy. I'm not even exaggerating haha" - Gwen Towell, Self employed

"I attended a Nagomi art class with Keith Cheung in November 2022, and it was such a rewarding experience. As a first-timer, I found Nagomi art quite challenging, but Keith’s patience and encouragement guided me through the process. I am proud of my first Nagomi art—it’s not perfect, but it turned out beautifully. Keith’s supportive teaching style helped me gain confidence and enjoy the process. Keith went the extra mile by accommodating my request to create Mount Fuji art. His creativity and skill as an instructor stood out, making the session truly special. My husband and I had so much fun during the class. Thanks to Keith’s engaging and approachable teaching style, it was a memorable experience. " - Vanessa Chan, Social Media Marketer
