  • 5/5 from Josh Koenig, attended May 2026: Employees LOVED our instructor and the class as a whole. We'd strongly recommend.
  • 5/5 from Angel Harris, attended May 2023: Talo Kawasaki with RESOBOX exceeded our expectations and then some! His warm smile welcomed the class as they started signing in. Talo shared his monumental credentials and accomplishments. He worked with the class to not go too fast or slow and his directions were very clear. We created origami cranes and he was knowledgeable about the crane symbolism and how origami relates to positive mental health. I am extremely thankful for Talo's time and expertise, RESOBOX and ClassBento!
