THE STUDIO
What is a flower warrior?
We all face battles in our everyday lives, so we need to become warriors. The samurai did it through martial arts training, Zen meditation---and ikebana! Flower arranging increased their concentration, peace of mind and appreciation for nature.
It can do the same for you.
