GreenTeaTokyo Lecturers Profile| A team of experts in tea ceremony and traditional culture
Representative: Yuki Ishii
Representative Director of YSF Inc. and operator of GreenTeaTokyo.
She was initiated into Urasenke in 2011.
She holds an advanced Urasenke license certificate.
Started traveling tea ceremony service in 2023.
The “tea ceremony” is a way of serving delicious powdered green tea to customers.
However, the actual image of “tea ceremony” tends to be a bit intimidating: you have to sit on the floor, you don’t have a kimono, and you don’t know the etiquette, so it is difficult to participate.
Therefore, we have started this service to make it easier for people to experience the tea ceremony.
Miho Imazu
I started studying the Urasenke tea ceremony to become a dignified woman,
and I am learning various things every day.
We are working to create an entry point for those who are interested in the tea ceremony but are unable to take the first step.
Nana Iizumi
Influenced by her mother, she was introduced to the tea ceremony from an early age, and began to study it in earnest in high school.
While learning the tea ceremony herself, she began to promote the culture and hospitality of the tea ceremony.
Miyuki Noma（茶名：宗美）
Chinese, English, and Japanese OK.
During my 8-year stay in Beijing, after studying Chinese tea, I entered the Urasenke Tea Ceremony Beijing Branch and began practicing the Way of Tea after turning 40.
After returning to Japan, I entered the Tea Ceremony Hall and obtained my tea name. Subsequently, to spread the message that “Matcha is delicious, tea ceremony is fun!”, I started a business and established the Nomad Tea Culture Tea Ceremony Club, a general incorporated association.
Currently, while managing the business, I personally work as an instructor conducting gentle, relaxed, and friendly tea ceremony classes primarily for infants, elementary school children and their parents, as well as offering visiting tea ceremony sessions at nursery schools, children’s centers, and elementary schools.
