Wu Wei is a collective community studio and tea house located in Saigon, Vietnam. Our space is intentionally designed to provide a safe, nurturing environment for collaboration, introspective workshops, classes, and events within the holistic realm.

We aim for our studio to be perceived uniquely by each person who experiences the magic of Wu Wei. Rather than defining our studio as one specific type of space, we leave it open to interpretation. Wu Wei can be a tea house, a community space, a sanctuary for healing and therapy, or a place to create, work, and connect. It has the freedom to be whatever you need it to be at any given moment.

Wu Wei offers a variety of events, workshops, classes, and retreats, as well as a welcoming space for co-working and collaboration. We also provide therapy-based sessions with our in-house therapists and facilitators. Whether you’re seeking creative inspiration, inner stillness, or meaningful community connections over tea, Wu Wei provides a space to explore, grow, and embody deeper self-awareness.

  • Our vision is to create a sensory experience that inspires people to feel more connected with themselves and the world around them. The name "Wu Wei," which translates to "effortless action" or "doing by not doing," reflects our philosophy of living mindfully and embracing the flow of life. We aim to create an ecosystem that nurtures the community we are building by establishing a multipurpose space that can meet diverse needs and desires, while maintaining the highest intention of mindfulness and introspection.

  • We are open daily for tea and co-working.
