In 1979, Katia Santos studied
Sangetsu at the National Headquarters
of Ikebana Sangetsu, in Sao Paulo,
Brazil. She had the opportunity to train
with the school’s headmaster for 3
years and received her Jyo-Kyoju title
prior to moving to New York in 1993.
Wishing to do more expansion work,
Katia continued to progress in her
studies by earning the second level
certificate. In 1999 she traveled to
Japan for her final examination and
was awarded the Kyoju-Ho title. Katia
is now one of three directors in charge
of the Ikebana Sangetsu USA School.
The school is responsible for planning
events, organizing studies, academic
curriculum, and instructors’ continuing
education.
Desiring to create a world of beauty through elevating each individual’s spiritual awareness, Katia continues to
participate in various community events and exhibits with the firm commitment to bring as many people as possible in
contact with flowers.
