How do i get into and start getting good at chinese/japanese calligraphy?
One of my sports coaches is really into it and says it helps him focus because he has really bad ADHD and I saw some of his work and it was really beautiful and I wanted to start doing it. Any books/websites/material i could use to start? any help welcome

Learn the languages first. That'd probably be your first priority.

Is it necessary for doing good calligraphy?

In Japanese, there are certain stroke patterns you need to abide by for it to be correct. I don't know shit about calligraphy, but it just makes more sense to me if you know what you're putting on the parchment.

If anything, you should start with English calligraphy. Again I don't know shit about it, but it'd probably be a good place to start.
