Rancho Los Alamitos presents
Ikebana Workshop with Tiger Blossom Studio
Sunday, October 4, 2026
11:00 AM – 12:00 PM
Free onsite parking.
Join us at Rancho Los Alamitos for a guided botanical art experience led by Tiger Blossom Studio. Set within the Rancho’s historic gardens, participants will explore floral arranging as a way to connect with place, seasonality, and personal expression. Through observation and hands-on work with natural materials, the workshop offers a space for reflection, creativity, and connection.
Rooted in principles of Japanese ikebana, mindfulness, and sensory awareness, this workshop invites participants to slow down and engage with the natural world through creative practice.
Participants will:
- Learn foundational principles of botanical arranging inspired by Japanese Ikebana
- Develop presence through observation, touch, and attention to natural materials
- Explore personal expression through form, color, and composition
- Engage the senses in a calming, restorative creative process
This workshop is open to all experience levels and offers a welcoming environment for both beginners and those with an established creative practice. Bring a friend or join in solo.
Space is limited. Recommended ages 16 years and up.
Rancho Los Alamitos is located within the gated community of Bixby Hill in Long Beach. The entry point is via the security gate at Anaheim Road and Palo Verde Avenue.
Aiyana created Tiger Blossom to share the healing and inspiration she found through Ikebana. Her journey began as a way to reconnect with her grandmother, Kyoko, who also studied Ikebana. Certified by the Ohara School in Japan, her classes blend traditional Ikebana principles with mindfulness and creativity, inviting students to discover their own healing, inspiration, and self-expression through botanical design.
