Sogetsu School Certificates |
It is wonderful to begin the new year with a well-deserved accomplishment.
Since I have begun my ikebana learning journey in 2012, my sensei Elsbeth encourages me to study Ikebana in a double-disciplined Japanese-Swiss manner which leads to getting Sogetsu School Certificates.
So I have got my First (Yonkyu) and the Second Certificates (Sankyu) of Sogetsu Curriculum at June 2015 which prove my learning of the first book through a method called Kakei-ho.
Now, I am proud to say that the Third (Nikyu) and the Fourth (Ikkyu) Certificates have arrived recently from Japan. These are given when the third (Composition and Line, Color and Mass) and the fourth level of curriculum (Material and Space) have mastered.
There is still one more level for me before beginning to qualify as a teacher. Then, there are another 8 levels in the Teacher's Diploma as well.
Yes, you have guessed correctly, Japanese takes schooling very seriously and it suits me very well :)
