JAPANESE TEA CEREMONY
For the past few years, Morita Sokei—also known as Rie-sensei—has been our chado or chanoyu (Japanese tea ceremony) advisor and instructor. If you're curious about this traditional practice, we encourage you to reach out to her directly. Here are a few words from Morita Sokei:
"I have been practicing Chado (tea ceremony) for 18 years.
I started the chado because I wanted to share Japanese culture with my daughters growing up in the U.S., not only the events, but also the spirit of the Japanese culture. I was fascinated by its depth and breadth.
I am also moved by the sincere interest that many Americans have in chado, and I am now working daily not only to introduce Japanese culture, but also to convey how chanoyu can contribute to bringing peace of mind, which is a universal human desire."
