In our school, both beginners and advanced practitioners learn the form of tea preparation known as "O-temae."

Its purpose lies in sharing an aesthetic sensibilities that are inherently diverse among individuals. Through repeated practice of O-temae, we aim for deeper refinement or development in accordance with the times.

We believe that an aesthetic sense and behavior cultivated over time, have the power to bring about change to everyday scenes and to evolve all things.
