Review Body: Me and my partner loved the workshop! Yujing is a very good teacher and explained to us about the history, different types of bonsai and even quizzed us (lol). I love that she’s very genuine and you can tell how passionate she is when she speaks about bonsai. I’ve attended a lot of workshops but this was one of the rare few that I really enjoyed and felt relaxed and comfortable with. It’s a super cozy and chill environment. After the workshop, Yujing also sent us notes and tips on how to take of our bonsai. Truly amazing. I highly recommend this workshop to anyone who wants their own bonsai, or wants to learn more about bonsai.

Review Body: We had such a wonderful experience at the Bonsai Workshop! Our instructor, Yu Jing, was fantastic — her explanations were clear, concise, yet thorough, and she patiently answered all our questions. We learned so much throughout the session! The entire two-hour workshop was very well structured and thoughtfully planned, with plenty to keep us engaged from start to finish. One thing we particularly appreciated was being able to choose both the bonsai we wanted to repot and the pot to go with it, which made the experience feel even more personal. A really enjoyable and rewarding experience. Highly recommended!

Review Body: I recently attended a class led by YY and found it to be both informative and interactive. YY's teaching style not only conveyed the material effectively but also engaged us, making it a truly enriching experience. YY's patience and friendliness were evident throughout the session, creating a welcoming atmosphere for us. She took the time to address each question with meticulous detail, ensuring that we felt heard and understood. Overall, YY's approach made the learning process enjoyable and fruitful. I highly recommend her classes to anyone seeking both knowledge and a pleasant learning environment.

Review Body: A wonderful and thoughtfully curated experience at Bonsai Inc. Yu Jing was patient and knowledgeable, helping me understand not just how to care for my bonsai, but also the principles behind observing, shaping and working with the natural character of the tree. I came away with much more than a plant — I gained a deeper appreciation of bonsai and the confidence to continue caring for and learning from it. Thank you, Yu Jing, for making the experience so personal and meaningful!

Review Body: First time attending a bonsai workshop and I really enjoyed it. It was engaging, beginner-friendly, and I came away learning much more than I expected. The facilitator YJ was knowledgeable and did a great job debunking many of the myths I had about growing bonsai in Singapore. I had always assumed bonsai were difficult to maintain, but the practical tips and clear explanations made the hobby feel much more approachable.

Review Body: We LOVED our bonsai workshop with Yu Jing!!! The ambiance of the gorgeous bonsai studio was warm and calming. Yu Jing’s introduction to the art of bonsai making was beautiful and succinct. And her coaching on making our own bonsai was so lovely. The most perfect birthday gift/date idea I’ve ever found! And now we have a new lifelong hobby that doesn’t feel so mysterious and impossible. Thanks, Yu Jing!

Review Body: Great workshop - perfect mix of theory and practical work on making your first bonsai. Very engaging and experienced teacher! The studio is very nice with lots of bonsai on display so you can see for yourself what are the different types and styles. Location is a bit further away and it might be a bit difficult to locate the studio once you are in the building so plan to arrive a few minutes earlier!

Review Body: Booked this workshop for my husband’s birthday and we really enjoyed it. We had Yujing as our facilitator and she explained everything really well and we learnt so much. Made even more enjoyable as it was a nice, intimate and cosy space. My only gripe is I wish we got to pick our bonsai for the day or if between the two of us we had different plants to take home!

Review Body: This bonsai workshop is really fun, I think it may be the best workshop experience so far for me! You get to understand the art, an overview of the history and the best part is the fact that you get to see the Bonsai itself transformed. From like just a normal tree, then now to a bonsai that you crafted out!!
