The Taoist Arts are her focal point for which most of her knowledge & wisdom stems from, cultivating & embodying practices of living simply and in deep connection to nature. This includes 14 years of learning the skillful art of tea making called Gongfu Tea (traditionally & alchemically).

WHAT IS GONGFU TEA?

“Gongfu Tea” means making tea with skill. A time honored tradition and practice that requires a certain level of effort, dedication, passion and humility by the person who is pouring the tea. After many years of practice, the tea master cultivates a deep connection to the tea leaves & tea ware. It is from this connection that the greatest gifts of the ritual and ceremony can be exchanged between the person pouring and those receiving.
