I'll work with you to master the common folds and bases, learn all kinds of models, and show you how to read diagrams so you can keep folding on your own, and even try your own original designs.
From folding paper, you can create beautiful pieces of art in five, twenty-five, or one hundred and five steps, from a simple fish to a three-headed dragon. The art of Origami truly has no bounds. It also improves hand-eye coordination and can feel calming and meditative. After every session, you will come away with amazing paper creations!
About Jeff R.
Currently offering online lessons. Origami is perfect for being stuck at home, and since all you need is paper, there's no mess to clean up.

I've been folding origami for over twenty years. I'm a Senior Teacher at Taro's Origami Studio, and I've independently taught origami at Manhattan Youth LAB Middle School in addition to giving workshops and private lessons to students of all ages. I've also been hired as an origami artist for television and live events.
In addition to my origami work, I am an actor, musician, and theatre teaching artist. I studied at George Washington University, New York University, the Dell'Arte School of Physical Theatre, and Circus Warehouse.

Jeff was such an amazing teacher. He came to our home and even brought the special paper with him. Our son who is 7 and his friends (8-9yrs) thoroughly enjoyed learning how to fold origami and it was a creative fun way to spend the afternoon. We hope to do it again soon.
