The Tea Ceremony Workshop

The tea ceremony is a comprehensive art. It means not only drinking a cup of matcha tea, but is also a spiritual experience. In Japan the tea ceremony was a development of a Zen ritual. As such it includes gardening, interior decoration, calligraphy, costume, arranging flowers, ceramics, food and tea, fragrances and textiles. 

We have been running our Japanese Tea Ceremony Workshops in London now for eight years. A qualified tea ceremony master, Keiko Uchida has been practising the Japanese tea ceremony for 25 years, and she is always willing to share her knowledge and experience of the tea ceremony, of matcha tea, and of the whole world of Japanese culture. The Tea Ceremony is available for private individuals, for groups, for events and for business occasions.  

The Japanese tea ceremony covers many areas of interest and relevance, and we can tailor our workshops to make them tune in with your own fascinations and motivations. We have had great success in the past with large corporations and cultural festivals as well as teenage birthday parties and single individuals. For each and every person, there has been something to discover and a great deal to enjoy. 

We offer our workshops at the London store, on site (wherever you would like - in homes, hotels, offices, at festivals) and also now on line, as a webinar. This format allows people in many locations to take part, and experience the tea ceremony first-hand, as participants are provided with equipment beforehand (such as a bowl, whisk, tea etc), so that they can actually take part in making tea during the event, guided by Keiko herself.
