1. Get a "front seat" to the professional's hands. You can watch the fine movements of the hands that are hard to see in the classroom as many times as you like with "Guild Members Unlimited Videos."
If you want to see more details, you can zoom in and play in slow motion.

2. Learn anywhere, anywhere
Your living room between housework or the train on your way to work can become your own private shoe class.
Of course, participants from both Japan and overseas are welcome!
Any questions can be answered through chat, so you don't have to wait until the next class day.

3. Step-by-step design allows you to learn step by step
After joining, you will be graded as a beginner, intermediate, advanced or Meister depending on your experience level. The intermediate hand-sewn (derby edition) does not require a sewing machine. It is designed to be sewn by hand with peace of mind. The beginner edition also provides patterns with a wide range of sizes. It is designed in a step-by-step format that is safe for those with no experience!
