One-time Introductory Lessons — Chado Austin

One-time Introductory Lessons for ages 10-100, with Linda Mosley

A Taste of Tea is a one-time introductory lesson. Linda will introduce the basic principles of Chado, the Way of Tea, and then present an informal tea ceremony where you will be guided in the guest’s role for receiving a serving of matcha tea and a Japanese confection. If you are thinking about taking lessons, it is a good way to meet Linda and ask ask questions about the Beginner Lesson Series.

The lesson is conducted in Linda’s home tea room in central Austin where participants are seated on stools at a table, a style called ryurei 立礼. Class size is limited to six people.

Whisking Matcha Option is hands-on activity that may be added to A Taste of Tea. Participants will learn how to prepare matcha tea properly with a bamboo whisk. There is a small additional fee for this option.

Fee varies based on number of participants and location. Please schedule at least two weeks in advance. For times available at Linda’s home tea room, see current schedule or CONTACT Linda Mosley
