Chabana, the traditional Japanese art of flower arranging for tea ceremonies, reflects nature's beauty through simplicity and the changing seasons. In this workshop, you'll learn to craft your own Chabana arrangement using seasonal flowers and foliage, capturing the essence of late Autumn. Whether you're new to flower arranging or have experience, this workshop offers a chance to connect with nature, explore the philosophy behind Chabana, and enjoy a calming, hands-on creative experience.

Flower arrangement can be enjoyable with simplicity. In this class, we will discuss and demonstrate the Chabana arrangement while learning about local seasonal flowers and how to use them. We will arrange a bundle of flowers and create a simple arrangement of Chabana (茶花).

Robiraki tea ceremony (:Chajin’s New Year) usually takes place in early November. Ro–a sunken hearth is opened for the first time since April, and tea is prepared using tea powder made from leaves freshly picked that summer. This is an excellent opportunity to gather friends together to celebrate the changing of the season in a tearoom.

Experience the essence of Japanese culture at Globus Washitsu with a traditional tea ceremony and the delicate art of ChaBana flower arranging. The workshop begins with a serene tea ceremony, serving a bowl of matcha, followed by an exploration of the philosophy and beauty behind ChaBana as autumn reveals its vibrant colors.

Instructed by Professional Horticulturist & Floral artist EunYoung Sebazco

Chabana (茶花, literally "tea flowers") is the arrangement of seasonal flowers for a Japanese tea ceremony. Displayed in the tokonoma alcove along with other key thematic elements for the gathering, the chabana style appeals to those who prefer a simple, natural look in their creation. While ikebana and other styles of floral arrangement prescribe their own distinct frameworks, chabana recognizes and transfers the essence of field to vase.
