A Brazilian exchange student came to our Shanghai bamboo weaving workshop alone. He wasn't good at crafts, but he wanted to make a handmade bamboo jewelry gift for his girlfriend instead of buying one. His choice of a red bamboo camellia led to a heartfelt conversation about love, Chinese culture, and family history.

A ceramic artist from Seattle joins our Soup Dumpling class during her first trip to China, sharing stories about Chinese ceramics, culture, and a heartfelt Dragon Boat Festival experience at Yin Studio.

Originally from Germany and now living in Shanghai, this guest first discovered Yin Studio through a Tai Chi class booked on a travel platform. After joining our membership community, she returned with a friend for a private calligraphy workshop, showing how one cultural experience can lead to another.
