Better than expected! I have some experience with shodo and have a degree in Japanese but learned new facts concerning care for brushes and ink grinding, as well as some valuable tips for watching brushwork on camera. Thank you.

Tuvieron mucho cuidado con la cámara y los diferentes enfoques. Eso ayuda a seguir con la práctica.

Very good course. Especially demonstration of vertical brush positioning. Calligraphy A+++ (She is 9th Dan). I wish I had the music to listen to separately. It is relaxing. However, at the beginning of course, it makes it very difficult to hear speaker. Should be removed from intro portion.
