Calligraphy (also writing in western fountain pens) is very hard because the center of gravity to make a mark is on your hand and fingers. This is very opposite from writing beautifully in ballpoint pen and pencils.

I have learn calligraphy when I was a kid and forgot most of how I write them. The younger you are exposed to practicing calligraphy, the better you've become if you keep practicing.
