Level 1 is a 7-day foundational course introducing tea as a daily ritual and meditative practice. Through bowl tea, you will explore the essentials: selecting the right tools, understanding posture and presence, identifying high-quality tea, and appreciating tea’s cultural roots from ancient China. This course engages all the senses, deepens awareness of tea’s energy (茶气, cháqì), and cultivates a simple yet profound connection with tea. This lays the foundation for starting your personal tea practice.

Commitment: 60 minutes daily over 7 days.

Who this course is for: Level 1 is perfect for beginners and seasoned tea lovers alike. Anyone seeking to develop a mindful, personal tea practice is welcome.

This course is at cost, meaning that there is no fee for the course, but you must purchase the course teas from the retailer for 70-80 USD. Details will be provided after registration.
