Kajun-ha group of the Sekishu-ryu school (a group of Sekishu-ryu school of Japanese tea ceremony) (石州流嘉順派)
The Kajun-ha group of the Sekishu-ryu school performs the buke-sado (the art of the tea ceremony of samurai families). They are a branch of the Sekishu-ryu school.
They are also referred to as the Kajun-ha group of the Sekishu-Shimizu-ryu school. This group is descended from the Shimizu-ha group of the Sekishu-ryu school (also known as the Sekishu-Shimizu-ryu school) which is located in Sendai.
During the Edo period, they had handed down a position at the bakufu (Japanese feudal government headed by a shogun) called Sukiya-kumigashira (a person who is responsible for the tea room and equipment for the shogun) for generations, and they supported the Ryuei-chado (the tea ceremony for the Shogunate) in cooperation with the Isa-ha group of the Sekishu-ryu school and the Nomura-ha group of the Sekishu-ryu school.
