The experience of the tea ceremony was simply extraordinary and deeply engaging. Every moment has been treated with a rare level of detail, capable of authentically conveying the true essence of this ancient and sacred practice. It was not just a ritual, but a true cultural and spiritual journey, in which every gesture, silence and movement had a precise meaning and respectful of tradition. The welcome was wonderful: warm, delicate and attentive, able to make you feel immediately at ease. The professionalism with which the explanations were provided made the experience even more valuable, allowing you to fully understand the history, symbolism and philosophy behind the ceremony. The workshop was also clear, engaging and stimulating, led with great competence and passion. An authentic, intense and deeply enriching experience, which leaves a lasting memory and the desire to return to live this wonderful immersion in tradition again.
Wonderful presentation and a real pleasure very grateful thank you so much for the experience and the knowledge
