Steve Iwaki
Growing up in Los Angeles, Steve is the second-generation of his family to practice bonsai. Having inherited many of his prized trees from his father, he hopes to someday share this passion with his kids, passing these same trees forward to the next generation. While that might be a long-term dream, his current goal is to pass down what he’s learned from others and share his experiences and appreciation of this traditional art form. He enjoys teaching all the facets of bonsai, from the structural and technical side to the more esoteric aspects. He strongly believes that bonsai instills the attributes of commitment, patience, and a sense of accomplishment, and above all creates balance in your life.
