Introducing
Zen Weaving
Experience Zen weaving, a contemporary textile art based on Zen principles. Our simple approach is meditative and frees your creativity to connect deeply with your true self.
Since 2005, Loop of the Loom has been leading tens of thousands of people into the practice of mindfulness zen weaving and will question your sense of humanity that is gradually fading from us due to automation and AI. The philosophies of Misao Jo’s and Gandhi’s handicraft revolution inspire us to be a passage for our beautiful future. Through weaving, dyeing, and spinning by hand, we welcome everyone to this gateway toward a sustainable society rooted in our ancestors.
“You don’t need any weaving experience nor do you need any great creative ability. It’s easy & fun! You are guided in just the right way and at just the right pace. They do not push. Instead, they give you space and time to create according to your own interests. Two hours flew by! I’d love to do it again. If you prefer something off the beaten path, a quiet respite from the hustle & bustle of NYC, with a creative aspect to it, you will love this experience!”

“It was healing from the moment I walked in until the moment I left. The no-shoe rule made you feel like you were more at one with the zen of the environment. It was a peaceful, spiritual, and healing event. There is no limit to colors within that studio. I am one of the pickiest people and this was an experience that I found absolutely nothing wrong with. It was AMAZING. What are you waiting for? Book it!”
