Details of the
Sadō Lesson
Japanese tea ceremony
Experience Japanese culture and learn about tea ceremony at a cafe
This is a program where you can experience ‘‘tea ceremony’’ easily, a part of Japanese culture and aesthetic sense, sitting on a chair instead of sitting correctly in a tatami room. Through the tea ceremony experience, you can experience Japanese unique philosophy, approach to nature, and a look at beauty. This is the Urasenke style of tea ceremony and I use a lot of
elements from antiques to art as tools. Let’s get familiar with the tea ceremony in an easier and authentic way.
