[Coming Fall 2026]

This 6-month mentorship is for those ready to refine their artistry in tea ceremony. Drawing from Chinese and Taiwanese traditions, you will learn to craft a ChaXi (茶席) with intention—using aesthetics, energy, and space to create a transformative experience. More than mastering technique, this course encourages you to blend tradition with your personal relationship to tea, developing a signature style that transports guests through your unique energetic presence. With a focus on ChaDao (茶道) and ChaYi (茶艺), this journey deepens your awareness, harmonizes inner and outer conditions, and empowers you to serve tea as an artful and skillful offering.

Guest teachers will be confirmed closer to the date. Here’s a preview:

• Chinese Cultural Historian & Master Docent at the National Palace Museum*

• Tea Master credited with reviving Puerh*

• Professional Teaware Potter

• ChaHua (floral arrangement) Instructor

• GongFu Tea Instructor

• GaiWan Tea Instructor

*Classes taught in Chinese will have a live translator.

Commitment: TBD

Who this course is for: Best suited for those with experience in tea practice who are ready to deepen their knowledge and craft their unique tea ceremony experience.

Special teas are included in the cost of the course for specific lessons, but you will use your own teas during regular practice.
