I joined an introductory calligraphy class on 2010, January 22, Friday, seminar room 201, here in the Okinawa International Center where I am undergoing a training course on Database Management for E-Government Promotion. Shiroma-sensei and Oyama-sensei taught us basic calligraphy strokes and how to write the words Flower, Peace and Japan, which I think are based in Kanji. We also signed our names on the left side, with characters based on Katakana and Hiragana, if I understand correctly.
