What you'll do

Step into a hands-on Chinese calligraphy class in San Jose, where you learn to write in Chinese through the elegant flow of Kai Script! You explore 楷书, the foundational Regular Script, guided by the balanced beauty of Ouyang Xun (Ou style 欧楷), designed to build a steady foundation. In this Chinese culture experience, you start with the basics of brush control, learning dots, lines, and hooks as you discover how to write in Chinese step by step.

You then move into character building, practicing structure and balance so your writing becomes intentional rather than rushed. Finally, you bring everything together in a final project, creating your own calligraphy artwork from scratch in a relaxed home studio setting in San Jose. The small class size fosters a warm, close-knit environment where you receive direct guidance and consistent feedback from the instructor throughout the process.

Led by Ziyang He of MoStudio, trained under Master Yang Zhihua, a disciple of Master Tian Yingzhang, you benefit from a teaching approach that breaks down complex ideas into clear, logical steps. It is a welcoming, creative activity and Chinese calligraphy class in San Jose that helps you explore Chinese culture while learning how to write in Chinese!

Women-owned

MoStudio is a cultural space dedicated to the art of Chinese calligraphy, offering a unique blend of immersive cultural experiences and systematic artistic training. We believe that calligraphy is more than just writing; it is a bridge to both ancient heritage and modern mindfulness. Whether you are visiting for a one-time cultural exploration or seeking a long-term, step-by-step path to mastering the brush, our studio provides a structured yet welcoming environment for learners of all backgrounds.

Our curriculum is rooted in a prestigious formal lineage, following the refined traditions of Master Tian Yingzhang, the preeminent modern master of the Ou Style (Regular Script). Our instruction is guided by the heritage of Master Yang Zhihua, a formal disciple of Master Tian and a veteran educator who has founded multiple calligraphy schools in China. This direct connection to a time-honored lineage ensures that every technique we teach is authentic, precise, and grounded in a proven systematic method.

We have intentionally chosen to host our sessions in a private house studio to maintain an intimate, cozy, and small-community atmosphere. This setting allows us to create a quiet, meditative environment where students can truly slow down and connect with the art form away from the noise of commercial spaces.

By keeping our groups small, we provide the personalized, hands-on guidance necessary to master the "architecture" of Chinese characters. At MoStudio, we invite you to discover the timeless elegance of the brush and ink in a space that feels like home!
