Hu fa, or "the way of writing," is an art deeply rooted in the long tradition of aesthetic beauty in Chinese culture. Calligraphy is an elegant art from the Chinese tradition. It trains hand-eye coordination, promotes self-cultivation, helps observation, and enhances artistic expression. The way of calligraphy also provides a chance to relax the mind, enhance your awareness, and focus on calmness. This class teaches the fundamentals of writing Chinese characters with a soft brush pen, creating calligraphic strokes, and developing artwork with calligraphy. Class will be taught in English.
