This introductory class teaches the foundational skills of gong fu cha, the Chinese art of tea service. Learn how to brew tea using the classic steeping vessel, the gaiwan, and learn the techniques that prepare you to intuitively steep any tea that comes your way.

Originally developed 19-years ago by So-Han Fan, owner of West China Tea, this course aims to spread gong fu cha culture across the country.
