How to Do Origami: Learn Origami with Cultural Backstories

by | Sep 18, 2022 | Arts & Hobbies, Book Now, Group Fun, Things to Do

Do you know how to make an origami crane?

An ancient Japanese legend says, if you fold one thousand cranes you will be granted a wish . . .

You’ll have to ask our Activity Partner, Manami Watanabe, if the legend is 𝗧𝗥𝗨𝗘 when you learn how to do origami in her Online Experience✨

Origami is a traditional art of paper crafting from Japan. It’s a therapeutic craft that requires precision and concentration.

Manami will teach you how to make professional-looking origami, along with stories of its history, culture, and the values behind the shapes.

Manami Watanabe – Experience Creator

“Hi from Tokyo, I’m Manami 👋 I started learning origami from my mother at the age of 3. Since I can remember, I’ve been in love with Japanese traditional culture. My passion led to me studying history and completing a Ph.D. in cultural heritage studies.”

One-Of-A-Kind Origami Experience

“Now, I offer cultural events in the form of an origami experience that is about more than learning skills—my concept is to share Japanese traditional culture and offer a space for cultural interactions. With fluent English and intermediate German, I am able to share my passion with more of the world. Beyond origami, I enjoy traveling, visiting temples & shrines, and learning languages.”
