Looking for beginner resources / material

Hey lovely people,

As I just started on Ikebana and already got confused about the different styles and schools, techniques, I wanted to ask if you can recommend learning materials books, podcast, videos that help people, especially those who learn better on the visual and practical side ( e.g myself 😬)

For starters I really enjoyed the ilove Ikebana videos because they were simple, well structured, short and hence just got me into actually TRYING IT - which is the most important part.

Now I feel like I'd love something with a bit more depth and detail. My brother is going to send me a book soon, which he already has, but I still wanted to ask and maybe that would be interesting for other people here as well.

If I got some money I'd also visit some courses in Berlin but atm that's not possible for me unfortunate.

Anyway, if something comes to mind, I'd be thankful if you could just post it here! Thanks 👋🌷

#2 arrangement, open to critique :)

Gathered some weeds around my house, some alive and some withered. I tried to make it look like each flower stems from the same point

Wondering if I should remove the smaller green stem in the back?

This would bring the total amount of stems back to 4, being an unlucky number in Japan due to its similar pronunciation as the word ‘death’.

Which is in theme with the use of the withered flowers. Just not sure if it’s ‘appropriate’ for an in house Ikebana arrangement?

One of my first arrangements

Hey there! My Ikebana journey began a few weeks ago. My brother introduced me to it, after visiting Japan. Was lovely to connect via collecting flowers and discussing arrangements together.

Hence I'd be extremely glad to receive some feedback to improve further. 💐

Anyways, I watched the tutorial from ilove Ikebana YouTube channel, since I am a visual practical learner - she called it the upright style. Is that style also called Moribana? Still confused with the amount of different styles....

I'd be also super thankful for more learning material, channels.. Best suited for me would be short video episodes 🙃

Anyway, looking forward to your thoughts and feedback.

Have a great day! 🌞
