★★★★★My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed the authentic tea ceremony experience! This was our first time, and we were mesmerized watching the beautiful flow of "temae" in making the matcha tea. The teachers were very kind in explaining our questions, and their kimonos were so beautiful. It was very interesting to learn the meaning behind the words on "kakejiku," and sweets, matcha bowls, and other items. We highly recommend Mayuko!

★★★★★Hi Mayu-san, it was a pleasure to be welcomed into your lovely home for the tea ceremony this past week in Tokyo. You were a very kind host and beautifully dressed in your kimono. You took the time to explain the tea room and each step of the ceremony and the significance of the rituals. The treats were also very yummy! I really felt honored to experience this special moment while visiting Japan. Thank you again. Sincerely Erin Fairbairn-Stammer
