Sogetsu Ikebana is a contemporary form of the traditional Japanese art of arranging flowers. It is a unique and beautiful way to express creativity and appreciation for nature. Pat's Ikebana classes provide students with experience and training in all levels of Sogetsu Ikebana.
The Sogetsu School was founded in 1927 by Sofu Teshigahara, who believed that ikebana should be accessible to everyone, regardless of their background or skill level. Today, the school has branches all over the world, including in the United States.

One of the unique aspects of Sogetsu Ikebana is its emphasis on creativity and individual expression. Unlike some other forms of ikebana that follow strict rules and traditions, Sogetsu encourages students to experiment with different styles and techniques.
