Express Yourself in Japanese – Talk Room Morning Session

Want to go beyond textbooks and speak Japanese more naturally?
oin a calm and thoughtful conversation group, led by a Japanese language coach who is also a professional editor and writer with over 20 years of experience in magazines and publishing.

【Who is this for?】
Great for learners who want to speak Japanese more naturally and as themselves, and take their skills to the next level.
Japanese native speakers are also welcome.

【What happens here?】
This is not a grammar drill.
It’s a space to express yourself, connect with others, and reflect — all while using Japanese.
We focus on using language to think, feel, and communicate.
It’s about making the language your own, not just learning the rules.

【What are its features?】
・ Small group, relaxed atmosphere
・ Every Friday morning in a cozy, vintage-style studio in Bunkyo, Tokyo
・ Most participants are intermediate to advanced level, but all levels are welcome

【What makes it different?】
・ Not a language exchange
・ Not a grammar drill or structured lesson
・ A space to immerse, reflect, and express in your own rhythm and tone

speakers are welcome too, but the aim is to use/speak Japanese.
