What We Do
The way of tea is the direct translation of 茶道, pronounced chado. Our official name is Chado Urasenke Tankokai Birmingham Association. We study and practice chado in Birmingham, Alabama, following the Urasenke tradition.
Our Mission
Our mission is to deepen the study of chado among the group's members.
We also offer the opportunity to share the tea experience with those who are interested in chado and Japanese culture. Although not all Japanese are familiar with the way of tea, this 500-plus-year tradition has nurtured their politeness and love of nature.
