What does the Japanese tea ceremony have to do with training in the martial arts?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The meaning of martial arts isn't fighting and winning, it's about respect. Tea is a symbol of life, so if you drink tea before training, it'll give you concentration and relaxation so that you won't be mad at your opponent if you loose.

What symbolizes respect?

Asked by Wiki User

I don't know of any symbols that specifically mean respect. Plus, various symbols and shapes mean different things in different cultures. But symbols work by association, so you could make a symbol that means respect for you in your circumstance. Respect means "to look back at" or even "re-look." So, a pair of spectacles, a eyeglass, binoculars, etc. could all be more literal symbols. A rearview mirror might be interesting. Choose something meaningful to you.

What is the price of a Japanese tea ceremony?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

To attend a basic (~30 minute) demonstration will be anything from free to $25 US dollars.

Attendance at a full, 4.5-hour formal tea ceremony is usually by invitation, and so is free. I can't imagine what you'd have to pay to attend one (if such a thing were even possible, which I doubt), but given the amount of work involved it would probably be in the hundreds of dollars.

To host a formal tea ceremony, assuming you already own all the necessary clothing and equipment, will probably cost at least $50-$100 US.

What is different between Japanese tea ceremony and british?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

They vary greatly. The British tea ceremonies generally focus on being tactful and polite while Japanese tea ceremonies are much more complicated. They have several different schools of tea ceremonies in japan, but generally it's about how to handle bowls, how to drink tea and eat sweets, how to use paper and sweet-picks, and myriad other details. They get to learn things like how to open the door properly and to avoid stepping on the edges of the tatami mats. There are several imaginary and real lines to take into account when you're at a Japanese tea ceremony.

All wrapped up British tea ceremonies are a bit similar to the Japanese ones, however they are not the same in the way that the Japanese ceremonies are are considered art while the British ones are sort of like watered down versions of the Japanese ones without seating orders or ornate calligraphy hanging on the walls.
