Our goal is to help clients connect the spiritual, mindful, and physical beauty that the tea room creates into actions that bring peace to their everyday lives. We expect all of our guests to leave feeling more calm, centered, and rejuvinated than they entered.
Providing a tea ceremony for your office or event can:
Each ceremony is unique - they can be tailored specifically to your needs. We work on an individual basis with you to determine duration, pricing, and formality based on your event. You can choose a wellness workshop with a different emphasis of your choice: meditation and mindfulness, matcha education, zen aesthetics, or public demonstration. All include an introduction to the history and philosophy of tea ceremony, tea room setup, cleanup, and a bowl of matcha and traditional Japanese sweet for guests. All you need to bring is yourself!

About
What is Japanese Tea Ceremony?
Originating in 16th century Japan, the method of preparing matcha, or powdered green tea, was formalized by Sen No Rikyu. Rikyu emphasized the concept of 'wabi-sabi', or rustic beauty - that all things are unfinished, imperfect, temporary. Today, we still study his principles of harmony, respect, purity, and tranquility. Most importantly, each ceremony will never occur again, and must be appreciated in the moment.
The tea room was used for diplomatic, political and business relations. For this reason, it was one of the only places samurai would remove their swords. Tea rooms are a space where time, status, and qualms outside their walls do not exist.
It is a ceremony of unity- between host and guests; mind and body; imperfection and beauty.
Fudō-An brings this beautiful dispaly to all. We work with you to create an experience that’s unique, cultural, and unforgettable.
What is Fudō-An?
Fudō-An translates from Japanese to 'floating tea house'. The founder chose this name because our business is a transportable platform - we bring the tea house to you! Normally, one has to travel to a traditional Japanese tea room to experience a ceremony, but we allow people to experience this special, exclusive ceremony in the comfort of your own home, office, or event venue.
