Shodō is a form of calligraphy or artistic writing in the Japanese language. Kyoko attained the title of Shihan in her 20s and has been dedicated to the art of Shodo ever since. She teaches calligraphy classes while creating commercial designs, including sake labels and sumi ink art. Passionate about sharing Japanese culture, she actively engages with the community through performances and workshops at events and colleges. Kyoko strives to bridge tradition and modernity, bringing the beauty of Japanese calligraphy into a contemporary setting.
