The Gongfu Tea Ceremony is an ancient Chinese practice which translates to “making tea with skill.”
This Ceremony invites you to leave your cares behind and focus on the beauty of the present moment, becoming aware of life’s subtleties and richness. While slowing down and focusing attention, we attune to our senses..
Through a series of rituals, we honor the preparation and presentation of tea as an art form so that tea is experienced beyond just taste, aroma, and appearance, but also how it affects one’s body and mind.
The steps performed by the tea master and tea drinker are meant to sharpen the senses and cultivate awareness, giving both participants the opportunity to develop artfulness and grace while performing these relatively simple and mundane actions.
Every ceremony is completely unique unto itself and deeply moving. This offering can be enjoyed in a private or group setting.
