Through the tea ceremony, I would like to strengthen the connection with the community while experiencing traditional Japanese culture, and to be a person who can convey the joy and depth of the tea ceremony.<\/h2>\n

Ms. Chiaki Tominaga sincerely practices tea ceremony with a dignified expression. She usually attends her lessons while performing her duties as a company employee.<\/p>\n

My first encounter with the tea ceremony was about six years ago. A friend invited me to attend a tea ceremony at a local coming-of-age ceremony, where the tea ceremony federation was holding a nodate (tea ceremony in the field). She was so impressed by the brilliant stance of her current master, Mr. Munemasa Watanabe, and his consideration for her ignorance of etiquette, that she began attending his practice the following month.<\/p>\n

At first, she was intimidated by the high standards and the difficulty of the etiquette, but she was able to continue because of the warm welcome she received from her teacher, who welcomed her into the tea ceremony without knowing anything about it and carefully guided her one by one.<\/p>\n

Tominaga says, \"I was fascinated by the world of Japanese culture, which I had never felt before I became involved in the tea ceremony. In her daily life, she has become more conscious of her manners in eating and other activities, and her behavior has naturally changed.<\/p>\n

Currently, as the chairperson of the Himuka Committee of the Miyazaki Young Men's Division of the Tankokai, he is actively involved in study groups and training, etc. In addition, as a member of the Tea Ceremony Federation, he often volunteers at festivals and international exchange events held in the city and elsewhere, and plays a role in conveying the taste and enjoyment of tea. He is also a member of the Tea Ceremony Federation.
\n As she continued her activities, she felt happy to be able to expand her connections with people from other schools and to communicate with visitors, and at the same time, she began to feel a sense of mission to share the tea ceremony culture with as many people as possible.<\/p>\n

Mr. Tominaga.<\/strong>
\n I make tea with the thought, \"I want the guests in front of me to enjoy the delicious tea and be pleased with it,\" while paying attention to each and every gesture and posture. The tea ceremony is a \"path,\" so there is much to learn ahead. As I learn, I hope to become someone who can convey the joy of the tea ceremony and the spirit of hospitality to others, just as I was able to experience a new world view through the tea ceremony.<\/p>\n
