Among many of floral artists who have been learning Ikebana arrangement for a long period of time with a very good artistic sense, we can find some designers who have a very high level of Ikebana skills. Since Ikebana is a very profound floral art and it requires a very sensitive and detail oriented skill, it is very difficult for ordinary people to earn a very high level of skill with which they can make a very high end arrangement.
When learning Ikebana arrangement, they usually start from Moribana arrangement by using Kenzan and Suiban. After they experience making Moribana arrangement, they proceed to the next level of making Nageire arrangement which is more difficult than Moribana.
Although most American people are satisfied with one day seminar, it is totally impossible to earn sufficient knowledge and skills only from a short seminar or entry level of programs. People in Japan usually spend several years to learn Ikebana once they start learning it. As a matter of fact, they are required to continue learning for several years in order to be in the level where they can make fair evaluation about Ikebana arrangement and also make a reasonable quality of Ikebana arrangement.
