Harmony • Respect • Purity • Tranquility in Matsudaira-style Ritsurei Tea Ceremony
A unique opportunity to experience the depth of Japanese tea culture through the five senses.
Step into the world of Chanoyu, calm your mind, and immerse yourself in the spirit of 「和敬清寂」 — Harmony, Respect, Purity, and Tranquility, the fundamental philosophy of the tea ceremony.
While learning the basic etiquette and movements of the tea ceremony, participants will discover the connotations behind each gesture and gain insight into the Japanese values of compassion, mindfulness, and respect for others.
Guests will also enjoy premium ceremonial-grade matcha, paired with Japanese sweets, while spending a peaceful moment in quiet reflection.
Through a single bowl of tea, we invite you to experience the spirit of Japanese culture and the timeless art of hospitality.
This workshop is authorised by 松平法式, Japan.
