I am a Urasenke practitioner in Europe for many years myself, and I am deeply impressed by this video. It does honor to Urasenke, both for the quality of the temae, the appropriate "kaku" of the participants, and the didactic quality of the explanations. With the ro, in winter season, the hishaku is used differently. In ro, it is normal to turn it upside down and lean it in the kuchi of the kama. Ro temae feels very natural and even more simplified than furo. Congratulations.
Thank you for showing the entire ceremony including the guests entrance and exit! I have been studying mostly on my own without a teacher and it is very difficult to find the entire ceremony including the serving of the sweets. It is so extremely helpful to see all the parts of the ceremony. So often you only find video of the host making tea. It is so important to also learn how to be a guest!! I am grateful to your group for making this video and sharing it. Maybe one day I will be able to visit your beautiful tea house. I hope you are all able to practice tea, even now. It brings so much peace.
Perhaps you can see if the Urasenke Foundation has a location near where you live. :) While the main headquarters is in Japan, they have locations in other countries.
bad knee cant do this...the kind of knee strength...up and down and kneel...what-an-exercise!! modern time is everything fast and eazy...so lazy so restless...cant really appreciate and pay attention to anything anymore...Chado...is art form. the performance, the experience, and appreciation. Gracefulness in the movements, precisions in placing each item and patience in enjoyment of the tea...blessings in the experience. love it!!
One of the best videos about Chanoyu. Once, I was invited for a Japanese Master of Urasenke School ,and I know the style. Congratulations to the students. Very concius movements. Regards from Caracas, Venezuela.
This is really fascinating to watch. Thank you for sharing! A part of me wants to see such a thing in person, but knowing me I'd probably accidentally say/do something that would ruin the moment.
This is a fantastic study of the great, ceremonial attention to detail that epitomizes the Japanese way of doing things! 🙌🙌 Rosa-san's Japanese is Ichi-ban!
Thank you so much for this video. I have learned so much more just by watching your every step. Maybe one day I will be lucky enough to study chanoyu. :)
I doubt it. I don't know the procedure with kaejawan, but in normal urasenke hira temae, the chashaku is cleaned just before putting it back on the chawan, as she does it at 15:03. It is not supposed to be cleaned again for haiken, just the natsume.
Ohayo, i would like to Thank u for the great work u did ! i enjoyed watching every single second and i've learned so much about the ceremony ! im a fan of japanese culture and i hope to see more awesome videos :) Arigato Gozaimas !!! ^_^
@BloodyDarkLife I disagree with TianyanGang's assertion that "real" tea is Chinese tea, but interestingly enough, the Japanese custom of whisking powdered tea in a bowl is actually imported from China. The method fell out of practice in its native land along with powdered tea hundreds of years ago (whisking dates back to the Sung dynasty, if memory serves), but lives on in the Japanese tea ceremony to this day.
So this is actually happening in California? I wonder if they come to Japan sometimes? This is actually a very helpful video! Those criticizing obviously never tried to learn Sadou... I started studying with an omotosenke teacher, but even if some things are different it is still helping a lot to brush up between lessons (i know, it's cheating :p ) And very honestly, it is very reassuring to watch a non-Japanese student performing... I was wondering if miss Budogyan isn't from an Armenian background? I am very interested to hear more about this lady, myself I am a french from Armenian background living in Japan and learning tea... Feeling slightly lonely -_-;
Actually, for the person who is drinking, it is supposed to be facing her just before, but she shouldn't drink at that place, which is more important. So she turns the bowl, drinks, then turns it back.
Why is the ladle turned upside down when it rests on the iron pot? I've never seen this in any Japanese Tea Ceremony before. It is unique to this school?
@SinoSene I haven't forgotten and I haven't got the answer until you reply to me...so thanks! :) so, they do talk in tea ceremony... I thought it would be awkward to just sit silently and stare at the host preparing the tea... Or was that what it supposed to be like? I've never been to tea party before, but like to participate in one, one day though...
Sorry if this is too late to be useful but after some staring and googling I'm fairly confident it's a zen phrase "喫茶去", read "kissako". It's a line out of a story so the meaning is not obvious without context but the literal translation is: "drink tea go". I can't find a good explanation in English, but the little I make out suggests a spirit of keeping it simple, just enjoying the tea and not making a big deal out of everything.
Striker8024: The front of the bowl (can be ambiguous) should face the person partaking of the drink when he/she is drinking and should also face the tea-maker when he/she is making the tea. As for why, i can't say i know.
The front part is supposed to be the best way to look at the bowl, so one looks at it that way. Sometimes there is a design there, or the shape is more interesting from that point of view, etc. So each person handling it holds or places it in such a way as to see its front. Note that actually, one does not drink from that part of the bowl; the bowl is turned away before drinking. Before passing the bowl to someone else, it is turned so that it faces the right way for that person.
A very well executed ceremony. I just don’t see how someone of a different culture can carry the sense and understanding of the ceremony, rather than just progress through the process of it. Having said that, I think that this lady comes as close as a foreigner can get to the true understanding of the ceremony.
@TianyanGang Eh...yeah the tea came from China. But Japan has their own way of making tea, so does China. What's the problem? Can't people just appreciate both ways?
whats the purpose if having tea ceremony? and don't people gets into civil conversation while the tea ceremony is held? sorry, I just do not really understand about it...
Denise Di Salvo I've never really thought about that before, but we tend to clean our bathrooms pretty thoroughly. But plenty of our houses have separate shower rooms from the toilet rooms (mine does).
The chashaku, the "matcha spoon", is never directly on the floor until the last part when it is examined by the guests, after which it is not used to scoop tea any more for this procedure.
I shouldn't be too critical but right after 1 min. I could tell this isn't Japan's level at all. Everything I can criticize. That's means this is still lots to improve. Deep world.
The description does say they are students. You are right, you shouldn't be too critical. There are plenty of videos of masters who have been practicing this all their lives. If you want to see perfection, you should change the channel. She says later in the video that she has been doing it for a couple of years. You commented elsewhere that this was "the shame of Japan." Well I say Shame on YOU for denigrating a student with a pure heart who has devoted more to this practice than it takes to sit in the audience & be mean. Leave it to her sensei to do the teaching.
Sandy Saijo The jingoism demonstrates no peace or sound mind. I've only just learned of this amazing ceremony, and I'd love to learn more. But, you will only push people away from learning with this sort of superficial pride.
poor japanese first the bomb and now they have to ridicule their ceremony with blond woman... really i feel so bad for the japanese.... anyway thanks for the vid i think ill take the one with the beard, at least she was kissable even if it was fake,,,,
This is excruciating in how boring and mundane it is... I understand that ritual and routine can often be that way but nothing feels ceremonial about this other than how droning it seems. Like church. Can anyone explain what all the scooting and whispering is about? The deliberately slow pace of everything? Are they drinking lean or something? Poppin xannies?
And what meaning would this have, then, if what you call Japanese spirit was involved? Plus, the ceremony is obvously very meaningful for the performers. Does need anything else?
wonda78 . If you cannot see it, or feel, sense a cultural issue, then it’s not possible to explain it to you. It is what forms a culture. One can perform a sequence of events without feeling or sensing the meaning. Try explaining the colour red to a colourblind person. They may get something out of it, but the full extent of it will never be realised. Culture is what makes us different. It’s not a problem.
@@markgoddard2560 oh, then i'm sorry for disturbing you in your supreme knowledge of cultural issues with my question of bare interest. if you do not wish to elaborate any further what you meant, that's fine. but please, refrain from deciding what is possible to explain to me and what is not. thank you :)
wonda78 . Well Wanda, if you don’t want a reply, don’t ask questions on the internet. And if you do ask, try not to be rude or provocative. No one is telling you anything about yourself, or even trying to. I thought I had elaborated sufficiently for you, but if not, please ask directly what you wish to know and I will try to answer. If you simply want to play a victim for someone willing enough to spend time on a reply, I would rather not hear from you again. Thank you for your interest.
@@markgoddard2560 You are wrong, and their tea is not without meaning. You have no idea of what they know of Japanese and tea culture. Hounsai Daisosho, the previous grand master of the school they practice, makes it one of his main goals to help transmit the way of tea worldwide, so he also clearly thinks that tea done by a foreign practitioner is not without merit.
Sandy Saijo , ***** BC M They are students. She made that quite clear. If you want near-perfection, there are plenty of videos of people who have been doing it much longer than 2 years. Remind yourselves not to teach anything, ever, to anyone. I'd feel very sorry for your students. I actually feel sorry for you all. Anyone who is that judgmental has to be judging her- or himself equally harshly. As I've mentioned in another thread, it takes more heart to devote oneself in the way she has (and I expect she will not be giving up her study any time soon) than it does to sit in the audience being critical. You should all be ashamed.

@crowingraven tea ceremony is more of a right of passage than casual tea enjoyment..... it is a display of sophistication.
Yes, like everyone does!!!!!
Very interesting!
Fantastico
Its more about Ichigo-ichi. And giving a good presentation.
This is the best , most complete video I've found on youtube for the Tea Ceremony ! Though I thought they serve sweets with it sometimes?
They served sweets at this one. The white wrapped ones on the black tray
@lukkha1 Actually I think the chasaku was cleaned at 15.15.
I doubt it. I don't know the procedure with kaejawan, but in normal urasenke hira temae, the chashaku is cleaned just before putting it back on the chawan, as she does it at 15:03. It is not supposed to be cleaned again for haiken, just the natsume.
Best!
Very well done
@Onexpresso There were sweets served on a tiny black tray. "Okashi wo douzo."
Rosa you have studied a lot. Very nice

very nice video...is there anyone who knows why they are turning their bowls before drinking??
soooo refined
very good, amazing, greatings from germany AnLa

Why is the ladle turned upside down when it rests on the iron pot? I've never seen this in any Japanese Tea Ceremony before. It is unique to this school?

didn't the samurai warriors study this also?
The samurai warriors defined all the detail. They had lots of spare time .
What is the purpose of the stick
VALSGAL Shannon it’s the tea scoop :) in Japanese it’s called a chashaku
the sign they are bow
i felt that it was rude that the girl in the green kimono blocked the view when the other girl was doing her tea drink
she is so beautiful, and graceful.
@IBM85 thanks ;)
I don't know why, but I replied to the wrong message, so I removed it again. Sorry for the confusion.

Aint nobody got time fo dat..
@TianyanGang Eh...yeah the tea came from China. But Japan has their own way of making tea, so does China. What's the problem? Can't people just appreciate both ways?
At 4:13 it sounds like the beautiful lady comes in and farts twice.

Is it ok for her to be wearing white clothes? I heard that that is a funeral colour?

whats the purpose if having tea ceremony?
and don't people gets into civil conversation while the tea ceremony is held?
sorry, I just do not really understand about it...
What freaks me out watching different ceremonies, is how
the utensils , especially the match a spoon, sit on the floor where people walk.
Take a look at the bottoms of those little white socks. Spotless! I think for such an important ceremony they would clean the floor in preparation. ;)
I think the Japanese are equally freaked out by the American custom of having a toilet in the same room where one bathes.Way worse, IMHO.
Denise Di Salvo
I've never really thought about that before, but we tend to clean our bathrooms pretty thoroughly. But plenty of our houses have separate shower rooms from the toilet rooms (mine does).
Also, the place on the mats where utensils are put are actually not supposed to be walked on
The chashaku, the "matcha spoon", is never directly on the floor until the last part when it is examined by the guests, after which it is not used to scoop tea any more for this procedure.
We need more blonde girls in the earth, they are very good species.

For the same reason you feel the need to leave multiple comments.

anyway thanks for the vid i think ill take the one with the beard, at least she was kissable even if it was fake,,,,
why is this ridiculed by the hair colour of a participant?
This is excruciating in how boring and mundane it is... I understand that ritual and routine can often be that way but nothing feels ceremonial about this other than how droning it seems. Like church. Can anyone explain what all the scooting and whispering is about? The deliberately slow pace of everything? Are they drinking lean or something? Poppin xannies?
Europeans or Americans can perform a tea ceremony, but they do not possess the Japanese spirit and thus is without meaning.

There's always a need to write an essay when people are being unduly critical--which is not very peaceful.
And it always amazes me when people become mentally exhausted reading more than 10 words at a time.
I am a Urasenke practitioner in Europe for many years myself, and I am deeply impressed by this video. It does honor to Urasenke, both for the quality of the temae, the appropriate "kaku" of the participants, and the didactic quality of the explanations.
With the ro, in winter season, the hishaku is used differently. In ro, it is normal to turn it upside down and lean it in the kuchi of the kama. Ro temae feels very natural and even more simplified than furo. Congratulations
