Braid 1 Oimatsu Basic Movements

We are finally able to braid our Oimatsu 16-Tama Braid with Beads. It has been a lot of set up as you learned, but the reward is how unique and beautiful this braid ends up being. As with our videos we are using the UA-cam Channel and our Akalei Design Pattern Instructions and Tips to help you learn on your own or you can easily add a Zoom Class for 30 minutes to learn exactly what to do. We are ready to launch our Video Exclusive 5-Part Weekly Beaded Oimatsu Classes starting in September (Oimatsu and Edo Yatsu pattern, weekly Zoom Meetings and access to instructional videos for $150 - kits sold separately). Dates tentatively established are September 25th through October 23rd at 6pm EST).NOTE: I realized after watching that I always seem to lift up two adjacent TAMA off the top of the mirror when I massage the braid below the mirror. Not sure if that helps, but it must relieve the weight and help me massage better as it is truly a habit I was unaware of until seeing this video.
Stay tuned or email to [e-mail].
Additional videos we have posted show how to start. braid and end a CBB Oimatsu Braid. There are three and if you need the pattern these are available on either of my Etsy Shops (Akalei Designs or Kumihimo Rhythms), or at my website. www.akaleidesi...
