Late 2024 & early 2025 Course Bookings Now Open
Thank you for your support.
Courses now open for booking:
Our One-Line Haiku course continues to sell out every time we run it so we've added another one for this year which crosses over into next year with a break for Christmas. It will start on 22nd October 2024. It is suitable for Advanced level students who are already intermediate-level or above in writing three-line haiku. For more information and booking go to: One-Line Haiku.
Our very popular newest course, The Shape of Haibun, will be running again starting 9th January 2025. This is suitable for Advanced level students who already have some experience of writing haibun. For more information and booking go to: The Shape of Haibun. UPDATE: As this course has sold out very early, we will run a second group. So please feel free to book and there will be a place for you!
If you would like to go on the waiting list for future dates of any of our courses, please email Alison at courses@callofthepage.org.
Alan Summers is available for one-to-ones via Skype or Zoom or through written feedback. To find out more and to book sessions, go to the One-to-one Tuition page. Thank you!
