Want to learn a fun new game and a few new skills? Join this workshop in NYC and learn how to play Karuta. Karuta is a traditional card game that uses the Hyakunin Isshu, 100 designated poems from the Heian era (794-1185 AD), and makes a one-on-one game similar to the card game “Speed.” If you can read Hiragana, you can play, and if you can’t read, we will teach you!
Karuta has been made popular once again from the well-known manga and anime, “Chihayafuru.” We hope that fans of the show and manga will join our class to learn the game, improve their skills, or even meet other fans!
Learning new things is great for your mental well being, and this class is an easy way to help exercise your mind! You'll learn in a supportive and likeminded community where you can feel comfortable embarking on this new journey.
If you're looking for fun things to do in NYC, join this class!
