concept
Kitewa (木手和) Wood Workshop is a community for woodworkers.
Kitewa is open to everyone, from beginners to master craftsmen.
It's perfect for people who want to make things, but don't have the tools, space or skills. You supply the imagination, materials and desire!
In addition to woodworking, you can also learn English.
If you already know how to use the tools, you can start today!
If you’re just beginning, or if there is a tool that’s new to you, we'll show you what to do.
Come to Kitewa to learn new skills, meet new people and have fun.
When your project is finished, you can say "I made that!"
training
We provide “Content and Language Integrated Training,” for Woodworking and English skills. It’s a great way to learn new skills, use them in a practical way and increase your confidence.
