Chakin on a nuributa should not touch the tsumami (摘み) if at all possible. glenn

From Notion

• Walking in yojohan, cross in center of fumikomi, then two steps and cross line into ro datami. Not crossing corner.
• Yes, do walk in at an angle (rather than walk straight, then turn)
• For uchizumi

• Knee should be at knee line (duh)
• Chawan placement in okiawase, chawan should be with chashaku kami ichimai from front of mizusashi, one chuu natsume width from edge to edge of chawan to chaji. That space is centered on mizusashi shomen
• Karioki, this should be half between knee line and mizusashi
• Kensui placement
  • Starts by body
  • Goes 5 mei from heri, bisected by knee line (ideal placement, this may need to move)
  • At end, goes such that go is tangent to lower kinindatami heri, chashaku is tangent to upper kinindatami heri. It moves left a bit, but not completely to heri. Stays farther out than in furo
• Hitting futaoki
  • EVERYTHING below shikaden, you drop the hishaku handle.
  • But you only make sound if it’s a take futaoki.
• Futaoki is 3/3 mei from edges (excluding heri). But it can also be 5/5. If it needs 7/7, then it comes inside the heri. These are all kama lid dependent (ideal positions), but can move if lid is big or small
• Old way, walk all the way up to knee line and then 4–5 sit. New way is to walk only to the center of the ro (my way)
• Taking futaoki, always take from futaoki shomen (which is tenari)
• Gotoku, in usual position (“sou”?) always, except for shin (and gyakugatte??). Does not depend on placement of tojonoma.
• Chaki/chasen are centered along the line from the mizusashi tsumami to the robuchi corner, irrespective of uchi/soto/gyo/etc. Each sit on opposite sides of the midpoint.
• Recent teachings are that shin and gyo are the same point (at gyo), but he prefers to keep them separate
• Chaire shifuku is at the midpoint between the heri and the outside of the mizusashi, centered horizontally on the mizusashi. His feeling - himadomae?
• Fukusa goes UR hiza corner, goes LL hiza corner when reopening futa later
• After fukukagen: take hishaku, close lid, place hishaku on kensui, place futaoki. Hishaku go should point to mizusashi tsumami.
• His thoughts on weird toko positioning and kamiza/geza: it should be relative to the orthodox tea room. It doesn’t change, maybe? No strong opinions
• When placing the bowl out, it nestles right in the corner made by bisecting the lid (horiz) and tangent to the lid (vert)
• Some thoughts on room usage - shikaden must be yojohan or smaller because you must scoot with dogu. Cannot stand. Teishu stands, but as a guest, you must not put yourself in the position of teishu. Smaller is okay, because you’re still scooting. Okuden must be yojohan because you need daisu and you must scoot. It is possible to replicate yojohan but in 8jo, just open door but pretend there’s another imaginary door.
• For sanjo ro, perhaps place as if daime giri, but scooted up? And treat as marudatami?
