I’m sure many of you are hoping to experience a tea ceremony when you come to Japan. I’ve talked to many people who are a little worried, because they've heard that there are a lot of rules.
Yes, that is correct. But if it's your first experience, there are only just a few things you can keep in mind.
So today, as a tea ceremony trainee in Kyoto, I will explain the 4 taboos that you can keep in mind before taking part in a Japanese tea ceremony. The 4 taboos will get more and more important towards the end, so I hope you can enjoy this video till the end.
As I always say in these manners and taboo videos, I really don't want anyone to worry too much. But on the other hand, I do want to give you some advice to make the most of your tea ceremony experience in Japan.
If you have any other questions about the tea ceremony after watching this video, please let me know in the comments!
Lastly, if you're still wondering which tea ceremony you should go to in Kyoto, check out our past videos in the description box of us introducing some of the amazing facilities.

To what you said about the whole "talking in a tea ceremony" at the end, I think the best way one could sum it up as is "Read the room". If people are generally conversational in the ceremony, talking about general topics might not be a problem but unless thats the case, just participate and enjoy the ceremony.
Tea ceremonies can't die. Don't let them die as a practice, japanese to english students.
Mexico's goverment is letting their artists in ballet lose support and my mom may lose her job one of these years if this keeps going.
@@OmarLivesUnderSpace
They mean it as they shouldn't die, and we cannot affort to let these ceremonies die out, or else something very important will die out culturally as well.
I like how Shogo-san's actual conversation ticks out in the afterword where he kept saying "Yep" at the end of sentences. I have noticed that Japanese people often use a lot of "Hai" in their conversation videos and wondered if this is a special tick that all Japanese people acquired. Would you like to ever make a video on general conversations as such that distinguishes someone who recently learnt Japanese vs a long time speaker/native speaker?
Shogo is so close to 1M !!!
When there is any videos uploaded about hospitality…. You can count on me that I’m gonna carefully listening and watching them. I’m very interested in that kind of information 🤩 thank you Shogo and crew for always providing interesting topics 🥰 always grateful for every video y’all put out. 🙏
The real reason Shogo is doing UA-cam videos is to replace the tatami mats he impulsively slashes on sight.
I have been enjoying your slow cadence and pronunciations of language to help people to understand clearly. I also appreciate your self awareness of some people with ADHD who need to hear things faster with the speed increase recommendation pop-ups. Keep up the wonderful work.
I feel the same appreciation. Thank you for voicing it!
Shogo will reach 1M this year for sure!
I like that "traditional" japanese display hospitality by making everything inhospitable.
In my own experience in traveling around Japan the one time it was okay to go barefoot in a tatami room was at Dogo Onsen, where one relaxed in the tatami room AFTER the bath.
I really want to go to Japan for a couple of weeks this year, or next and experience a Tea Ceremony. I was at one simple ceremony at a culture fair in Thailand, but it was without a tatami or a special room. Thank you, Shogo!
Rule 2 is not even just a tea ceremony thing. If you're drinking pretty much any tea, especially high grade ones, the aroma is also part of the appreciation other than the taste. This is why I avoid drinking tea when someone's chopping garlic or onions on the kitchen.
Japanese have such an eye for detail, such as Shogo using a matcha-colored kimono for this topic.
never seen a video request to be played faster! i always watch at x2 speed because of my ADHD so it took me by surprise haha
Basically, just stay simple, be nice and careful, and keep fully opened to the sensorial experience.
If you are being served, calling a ceremony a ritual is more precise, for those who appreciate precision in language. Love 💘 this channel ❤
Does removing jewelry include wedding rings? This was a great video and I am looking forward to trying a tea ceremony even more now!
The point is not to have metal rings clanking against antique pottery, so, yes. I've seen people put their ring on a chain around their neck and tuck it into their shirt, and I've seen people wrap a bit of athletic tape around their ring to create a barrier.
Also, are eyeglasses allowed in a tea ceremony?
@@thummumcrysanth I would think eyeglasses are fine. You need to see to be able to fully enjoy the ceremony!
@@WanJae42 oh okay but still its best to bring a jewelry casing right?
I haven't taken mine off in years. I will struggle getting it off, my finger size has changed, but I don't want to offend the host, so I will try.
Thank you so much for making this video, I noticed you liked my comment asking how I should present myself. I was expecting a short, but I'm glad I'm getting this much information for such a simple question.
We need an updated look at that fancy katana collection
Hey Shogo, Kazu, Tomoko, and Harumi, thank you very much for this video which completes the first video on this beautiful tea ceremony with Kazu and Toi. All the videos of your team are wonderful and bring us a lot of knowledge about your beautiful country of Japan. I send you all my affectionate brotherly friendship
Arigato Shogo San. Your videos really help gaijin which may have never considered this.
One question though, is it better to carry fresh socks, especially if it has been a hot day, sweat would likely seep into socks.
Hi Shogo! Trank you for your big efforts to create this vedio! I got a lot of interest in Japanese culture thanks to you! I'll keep watching your videos and I want to learn something important in my life!
You have covered so much proper etiquette for me. Thank you.
Love your videos, man. The tea ceremony is really cool; I hope to experience it one day.
OK, this sounds like I couldn't do a tea ceremony, as I use a wheelchair to get around, and everything seems focused on the temporarily able bodied. I will remember this if I ever manage to get to Japan.
Thank you, Shogo. As ever, fascinating and educative.
Congratulations on reaching your 1M subscriber goal much sooner.
I loved this insight into the tea ceremony! Especially the two addenda about boundaries and talking. So interesting! Thank you!
There is this episode on sailor moon (s3 e 15) wich Usagi's makes a lot of mess in the tea ceremony because of Chibiusa provocation. It was funny, but plus with Sogo's video it is a indication what never to do in a tea ceremony party 😅
Thank you for being always caring towards the people who view your work.
Explaining patiently and taking away doubts and even reassuring so much!
(I always feel quite humbled and am very grateful. So much to learn.)
I will be attending a tea ceremony this Saturday at a festival. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge! 😊❤️
@Let's ask Shogo | Your Japanese friend in Kyoto Shogo, what if someone with Dissability wants to go to Tea Ceremony? Say we someone in a Wheelchair or on crutches? Or if that someone doesn't have one or both Legs? Hope to get an Answer. Arigato!
Talk in advance with the people organizing it. Some forms of tea ceremony (ryurei) use stools for guest and the tea is prepared on a special table. I've seen chairs prepared for a couple of old guests in a tatami room where everybody else was sitting in seiza. The host should know in advance so he can prepare a solution or decline, depending on the constraints.
@@alestane2 I just started learning Japanese, so there will be some Time before I can Speak it.
Majority of Japanese People don't know other Languages, so that is then a Big Chalange that must be surpased!
I subscribed 😊
Thank you for the information. I have watched a couple videos now and definitly learning.
Very helpful tips and explanations. I'm going to watch a Japanese Tea Ceremony in Michigan soon. It's truly a beautiful art form
This channel is really nice it was suggested to me r today I watched a few vids before this and I like the channel you definitely got a sub I love japanese culture and the language trying to learn
i really enjoyed the last bit with the lax editing. felt like i was having a nice conversation :)
My first introduction to Japanese culture was being invited to a proper tea ceremony with my host family to learn custom, and courtesy to culture.
Ngl tea ceremonies sounds so relaxing.
if i am alive after ww3 i will go to japan and never step outside again
Can I ask what the purpose of the tea ceremony is? What sort of significance does it have?
Is it a religious ceremony? Medidative/spiritual? Is it a way to impress your guests?
All reasons are valid in my opinion, but I'd be curious to know of it's purpose and significance.
It's an art form meant to evoke a sense of "peace" or "Zen". It promotes mindfulness, gratitude, and awareness of the surroundings. A lot of Japanese traditions hold a similar purpose, like ikebana / flower arranging and even some martial arts.
Read the room, and be respectful basically. Check! Got it. 👍🏾
Thanks!
Wonderful 🥰🥰
Could you make a video explaining all the different pieces and utensils used in a tea ceremony such as the chawan and water pot? And also places where you can get your own to use at home.
So close to 1 million subs!
You are smart
I went to the tea ceremony at a school I taught at in Japan. Someone stayed close by to tell me what was happening.
Tea ceremonies... Heh, I remembered watching it from Karate Kid II.
Speaking of which Shogo-san, I wondered about your perspective as a Japanese man about Karate Kid's use of Japanese culture.
I lived in Okinawa in the 90s and the locals there were always the first to talk about Karate Kid, Pat Morita,and ask you if you wanted them to take you to see the areas from the film.
They were very proud and excited about the films.
6:10 Also, don't step into the tokonoma. It should go without saying, but...
You did it! You got yourself a ninja sword finally 😆.
Yay I'm first and earlyyy
Thank you very Shogo-San for your presentation.
I will strongly appreciate any recommended location of a nice « tea-ceremony » place in Kagoshima, Kyushu.
どうもありがとう
hi, i'm struggling to find any info online on how to heat the chagama. its a type of coal right? is it safe for indoor use? i dont want to set off my fire alarm 🤣 if you have any sources of info on the correct way to light the chagama could you let me know please? also if there are any alternative heating methods for the chagama (ie smokeless heating methods), specifically for a pretty small chagama, as mine is not very big, could you let me know please? thank you!
Unrelated question but are ronin not allowed to wear the Mon of their teacher or school?
I worked for a Japanese tea company in the past and many of these rules I won't even question. It's just common sense.
May I Ask?
Which one is the cheapest living cost between Osaka,Kobe,Kyoto and Tokyo?
Because I want to traveling in Japan and maybe you could give me some information
Thank You
how do you find a shodo caligrapher who can write a _ichigyo mono_ to display during a tea ceremony?
What happens if one went in with yakuza tattoos?
Even if you have them, you would still be fully clothed. So no one would see them.
Wait, is there a 5th thing? I think I only counted 4...
Is there any polite way to turn down an invitation to a tea ceremony?
Hi
I’m Catholic and wear crosses/crucifixes on a necklace as a sign of my faith… would those necessarily be distracting for a tea ceremony?
I think that’d be problematic for me.
Do glasses count as accessories?
Actually, there's a family of Japanese artisans that can restore ancient precious wares to their original state. Their work is invisible even to museum curators - much better than the kintsugi technique.
Tbh in indian culture like what you mention about the incense smell for the tea ceremony is very significant here for indian culture we just do it everyday and the smell is more intense😅.
Don't show up, slurp it down, and put your shoes on the table. But to bow when all the accessories come off after the tea ceremony? Taboo taboos.
Scotchgard.
What’s up Broski 🦋…
This was uploaded on April 1st so I went into it very sceptically expecting it to be an April Fools joke. xD Seems legit, though.
First came at 32 seconds
Chaiwala wooohooooo
Taboo #5: Asking for coffee instead of tea.

Problem: for a catholic removing a blessed marriage ring and/or a cross from his/her body is a severe tabù... it seems we encounter some conflict here.
A catholic from where? Here in Argentina we have no problem removing our rings to wash dishes or get a shower. They are not sacred per se, just symbolic.
Don't take part in the tea ceremony then.
@@eugenioginicambaceres2882 from Rome, Italy.
@@Capitan0Guinea maybe it’s just an Italian thing, not all catholics around the world share the same ideas about everything. At least in Spanish speaking catholic countries there is no problem in removing a ring or a crucifix or a religious medal or scapulary for practical reasons. Many people I know still wear the small cloth carmelite scapulary (piccolo scapolare della Madonna del Monte Carmelo) under their clothes and of course they remove it to take a shower.
Too many rules, I'm just going serve myself some cheap tea from a teabag.
