Studying Japanese tea ("tea ceremony", chadō) is in many ways about learning and understanding together. The equipment needed for training is rare, expensive and basically only available from Japan. In July 2023, I founded an open communial study group for people studying Japanese tea, which meets mainly at the practice tea room I manage in Helsinki. The tea tradition studied is Urasenke. In principle, all participating in the group's activities should have basic knowledge of the tea tradition according to the Urasenke from Suomen Chado Urasenke Tankokai yhdistys ry association or from somewhere alse.
Those interested in the activities of the study group are asked to note that this study group is not educational activity of the official Urasenke association of Finland mentioned above, but specifically a communial study group where those who already know "chado" deepen their skills through doing and realizing together.
