Do I need prior graffiti experience to join the teacher training?

Absolutely! Our Tokyo teacher training is designed for all skill levels. Whether you are a veteran art educator or a classroom teacher looking for a new creative outlet, we teach you the basics from the ground up. We focus on 'train-the-trainer' techniques, ensuring you feel confident enough to demonstrate spray painting and mural design to your own students once the session is over.

Is spray painting safe for a school environment?

Safety is our number one priority. We use low-odor spray paints and provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective suits. During the workshop, we cover specific safety protocols for the classroom, including proper ventilation, paint storage, and how to manage a group of students safely with aerosol cans. You will leave the session with a full safety checklist for your school. 🎨

Will I receive any teaching materials or lesson plans?

Yes! While the physical act of spray painting is the main draw, we provide you with curriculum-aligned materials that connect graffiti to art history, typography, color theory, and social studies. We help you frame street art as a legitimate contemporary art movement, making it easy to justify the lesson plans to school boards or administrators in Tokyo. 🏆

How long does the training session last?

Our standard professional development sessions in Tokyo typically last between 2 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time to cover the history of the movement, master the technical skills with the spray cans, and complete a final collaborative mural. We can also customize the duration if you have a specific professional development day schedule to follow. ⏱️

Can the workshop be held at our school?

We are very flexible! We can host your team at one of our inspiring street art locations across Tokyo, or our artists can come directly to your school or campus. If we come to you, we just need an outdoor space or a very well-ventilated indoor area with protected surfaces. We bring all the necessary drop cloths and protection. 📍

How does the payment process work for schools?

We believe in the quality of our training so much that we don't require upfront payments. You can book your session, get your team excited, and handle the payment after the workshop is completed. This makes it much easier for school departments and administrative offices to process the paperwork without any stress. ✨

What should I bring to the workshop?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a little paint on. While we provide full-body protective suits, spray paint has a way of finding its way to shoes! We provide everything else: professional-grade spray cans, various nozzles (caps), canvases, masks, and gloves. Just bring your creative energy! 👟

Local culture

Tokyo is a city where tradition meets the cutting edge, and the street art scene is no different. While Japan has strict rules regarding public space, the 'legal wall' culture in areas like Shibuya, Harajuku, and Tennozu Isle is exploding with creativity. By bringing graffiti into your school, you are connecting your students with a massive global movement that has deep roots right here in the Kanto region. 🇯🇵

Fun Fact: Did you know that Tokyo’s street art often incorporates 'Manga' influences? The fusion of traditional Japanese graphic storytelling and Western graffiti styles is something we love to explore in our teacher training sessions!
