Christmas Tea Ceremony Experience for Parents and Children: A Journey Through the Five Senses

Step away from the busy daily routine and spend some special time with your child. The “Christmas Tea Ceremony Experience for Parents and Children” is a workshop where you can fully engage your five senses—enjoying the aroma of matcha, the sound of whisking tea, the taste of delicious sweets, and more – while learning about Japan’s traditional culture together.

We’ll use a special chocolate brownie from Alishan Park Café and will be guided on the proper etiquette for handling and enjoying tea sweets, as practiced in the tea ceremony.

In the special festive atmosphere of Christmas, you will learn about the history of tea through a fun picture-story show, experience the etiquette and spirit of hospitality in the tea ceremony, and try making matcha together as a family.

Teacher Profile：YUKO

Has 23 years of experience in the way of tea (sado), studying under the Edo Senke school. Although she was introduced to sado as a high school student, it was during her time studying abroad, when she was unable to answer questions about Japanese traditional culture, that she became inspired to study sado seriously upon returning to Japan.
Currently, she offers tea ceremony experiences for foreign tourists and hosts workshops to introduce Japanese culture to Japanese children.
After becoming a parent, she realized the importance of passing traditional Japanese culture to the next generation. She developed programs to help children gain the confidence to explain Japanese culture to foreigners.
She provides sensory-rich experiences, including tea ceremonies for parents and children to enjoy together, and workshops like matcha-infused yoga and meditation.
