About this event

  • Complimentary fine teas by local company Dragon Girl Tea will be served while participants arrive, chat and get to know each other. After everyone is ready, we will do the 6 Healing Sounds qigong practice, followed by some breathing and chanting exercises accompanied by live music on the 葫芦丝 (Hulusi, a mellow wind instrument) to relax and warm up. A short poem and song 花非花 (Flower Not Flower) will be introduced for the Mandarin Chinese mini-lesson. We will retire to the Music Room to enjoy a guided musical improvisation-exploration of traditional Chinese instruments such as 月琴 (Yueqin AKA 'Moon Guitar'), 三弦 (Sanxian, a 3 stringed banjo-like instrument), 琵琶 (Pipa AKA Chinese Lute), and assorted percussion. No previous music experience needed!*
