Sword and Tea x Yorkseed - practice & ceremony

Sword and Tea x Yorkseed - practice & ceremony takes place on 13 November 2026. Venue: Jisei Dojo, Lisbon.

Web Summit edition A moment to step away from the buzz of Web Summit. This edition of Sword & Tea - practice, we're opening the space to Web Summit participants who would like to unwind, reconnect with themselves and experience something a little different from the usual conference rhythm. Sword and Tea – One Soul is an ongoing practice series of Jisei Dojo Lisbon for those seeking to go deeper on the path of Martial arts and the Way of Tea. Martial arts and tea have long met through shared qualities: dedication, repetition, precision, and presence. Martial practice refines the body in movement, while the way of Tea refines stillness. Together, they offer a cultivation of inner force. For 3 hours precision meets stillness — a journey through Qi energy, Japanese sword tradition, and the Way of the Tea as a ritual of stillness. Included - Internal martial arts and Qi cultivation - Foundational sword movement and posture - Japanese Tea practice - Space for reflection and presence. Agenda 10:30 Arrival to the Dojo – shoes off, step onto the tatami, leave the conference rush behind and find your centre. 10:45 Tao Qigong – awaken the body, cultivate energy and inner power. 11:15 The Art of the Sword – A hands-on introduction to Japanese sword practice, exploring movement and precision. 12:15 Tea ceremony – shift from movement to stillness through the ritual of Chado, the Way of Tea. 13:15 Closing – Bringing the practice together. Optional: 13:30 onwards Ramen & Networking – From the tatami to the ramen table. Share a bowl, exchange stories and continue the connection over authentic Japanese food. Workshop concludes at 13:30. Lunch is optional and at each participant's own expense.
