About the event
When you hear the word "chnoyu" or "tea ceremony," you may feel that the threshold is high. To put it very simply, it is a communication tool between the person making the tea and the person receiving it. Would you like to learn some etiquette while having fun drinking tea?
For me, who started practicing tea ceremony in my teens, it is an important time for us to have a leisurely "dialogue".
This may be a bit of an exaggeration, but just as samurai put down their swords and entered the tea room during the Sengoku period, we should also put down our smartphones and take time to interact with the person in front of us and ourselves. I wanted it, so I made a plan.
