Cha Dao: “The Way of Tea”

Cha Dao: “The Way of Tea”

Cha Dao: “The Way of Tea” is a practice that comes from ancient Chinese lineage. A marriage between tangible and intangible, a ceremony to contemplate reality and perceive the spirit of tea, Tao, and Zen.

Tea connects us to ourselves, each other, and the natural world.

I am a student of the leaf and have been serving Cha Dao and Gongfu style tea for nine years. The practice of stillness, connection with the tea plant, beauty, and harmony deeply supports my work as a teacher of heart presence, personal cultivation, and understanding our wild nature in the cycles of life.

How to enjoy tea…

It’s best to sit with tea in a place where the essence and fragrance of the tea can be admired, taken in, and enjoyed. Because of this, we ask that you do not wear strong fragrances on clothing or in facial/hair products when you join a tea ceremony.
