WHAT WE DID LAST 

MASTER CLASS MIKÁDO – AUTUMN / WINTER 2026, NITRA

 Location: Nitra, Slovakia 

Date: October 5–6, 2026 Duration: 2 days 

Type: exclusive intensive Master Class for professional florists 

The second stage of the year-round Master Class MIKÁDO program focused on funeral, autumn, Advent, and Christmas floristry. The key element of the workshop was combining the architectural construction technique MIKÁDO with the contemporary ecological direction of Sticky Floristry, without the use of floral foam or plastic components.

The first day was dedicated to theory, demonstrations, and the creation of funeral and autumn floral arrangements, placing emphasis on natural tension, supports, and self-supporting joints. The second day focused on Advent and Christmas creations, where participants mastered architecture using natural supports and worked with recycled botanical materials.

Process and Outcomes Each participant practically tested advanced micromechanics and created their own funeral wreath, All Saints' Day arrangement, Advent wreath, and Christmas tree display for shop windows.

The goal of the workshop was to help florists work sustainably, with technical strength, aesthetic clarity, and maximum economic efficiency.

However, there is one review we must feature on our main page: a review from a participant who has already attended her seventh workshop with us.

I went to my first workshop feeling shy, not knowing what to expect. Me, from a small town in eastern Slovakia. That was 6 years ago. And I can tell you this – it was love at first sight. Robo's work fascinated me from the very beginning. His perception of floristry and nature, his imagination, and his eye for detail still stir emotions in me to this day. I run a small flower shop in Michalovce, and my work has evolved largely thanks to him. I have already completed 7 workshops and I will continue learning, because it means a great deal to me and keeps moving me forward. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to learn from you. You are an excellent teacher and, above all, a person with your heart in the right place.
