I am certified sushi and mochi, and I have 13 years of teaching experience for 4,000+ people, and I teach at the Tokyo Sushi Academy: Japan Sushi Instructors Association. My classes and works have been featured in 50+ media around the world.
As a teacher, I think it is important to enjoy the first step in order to learn more deeply. That's why we created this unique entertainment class.
I have 4 children, so families with children are also welcome. The cozy rooms near Tsukiji Market are full of items that anyone can freely touch, such as Japanese cookbooks, cooking utensils, comics, and toys.
I have experience in the dormitory of Peking University, a homestay in Los Angeles, and an art school in Houston. The people were kind, and I had a lot of cultural experiences. Now it's your turn to experience Japanese culture in a fun way!

★★★★★Mami is amazing! We went in with no experience or expectations but found ourselves not only able to make many different kinds of sushi, but also learned so much about Japanese sushi and culture. If anyone is looking for a personable and fun experience, I would 100% suggest Mami and her sushi/mochi making course. We had a unforgettable experience and wonderful time.

★★★★★Mami Sensei is an excellent teacher! She was very prepared, patient, fun, and was accommodating to my family's needs and learning paces (I have 2 kids - 6 yo and 10 yo). The lessons were clear and exciting, and the space was neat and beautiful. She took pictures and videos throughout the lessons and sent them to us via Whatsapp. Highly recommend her class!

★★★★★Mami is a lovely and friendly host! She is excellent and clear at explaining how to make the sushi and mochi. She is knowledgeable and is very fluent when she explains Japanese culture and the occasions each dish is commonly served in. It was a lot of fun learning all the methods and trying out unique unexpected experiences like grinding our own wasabi and drinking delicious soup that isn’t miso soup but a soup commonly made for special occasions and served at higher end restaurants. The experience was so much fun and comfortable. It was interesting to learn about Japanese culture in depth. Mami would also take pictures and videos for us throughout the experience so we would be focused on the experience. She would send us the recipes and photos after the experience is over. This was a awesome experience that made our trip to Japan unforgettable!

★★★★★This experience was wonderful! Mami had every detail meticulously planned out and it was an incredible experience from start to finish. She was warm and friendly and taught us a lot! We loved how she had themed music quietly in the background that smoothly changed to match each activity that we did. When we sat down to eat, she brought us more fresh sushi in addition to the sushi we had made! She was patient and kind and I highly recommend this class.

★★★★★Mami is so awesome! She is professional yet pleasant and kind from beginning to the end of the class. She helped my sister and I be comfortable to create our first floral sushi roll and it was so much fun! We got to see our creations on a mini conveyor belt, while enjoying some tea and various goodies. I would take her class again when I am in Japan and highly recommend anyone else interested in learning to roll their own art sushi!!
