Private sessions
Experience Chado in Kawagoe, a historic city famous for its traditional warehouse-style streets.
Kawagoe is an ideal destination for a day trip from Tokyo.
For each experience, I carefully select seasonal tea utensils from my own collection. I also create seasonal shikishi artwork by hand, with paintings and calligraphy inspired by the season. Through these small details, I hope to share the spirit of Chado and the Japanese appreciation of seasonal beauty.
My wish is to offer you a calm and mindful moment during your journey in Japan.
Please feel free to talk with me throughout the experience. This is a small-group introduction to Chado for up to 6 guests.
You do not need any previous experience. This is not a formal or intimidating tea ceremony lesson. Instead, I hope you will feel relaxed, curious, and welcome.
I look forward to welcoming you to a traditional Japanese room in Kawagoe. I hope you will feel as if you have stepped into the warm, peaceful home of a Japanese grandparent, and enjoy a mindful moment surrounded by tea, seasonal beauty, and Japanese culture.
Get off at Hon-Kawagoe Station (Seibu Shinjuku Line), take the East Exit, and go straight along the main street for about 8 minutes. You will pass the Renjakucho intersection, and Showa Space will be on your left.
