About the event
Experience Baduanjin, one of the most well-known and accessible forms of traditional Chinese Qigong.
Charlotte Chinese Story Time is excited to invite Professor Wenfang Yang from the College of Physical Education at Shanghai Normal University to lead this special community workshop. Professor Yang will introduce participants to Baduanjin, also known as Eight-Section Brocade, a traditional Chinese wellness practice with a long history.
Baduanjin uses slow, flowing movements, gentle stretching, and mindful body coordination. It is easy to learn, does not require special equipment, and can be practiced by people of different ages and physical abilities. Through this workshop, participants will have the opportunity to experience a calming and meaningful part of Chinese cultural wellness tradition.
This is an all-ages event with no age restriction. Children, adults, seniors, and families are all welcome to participate together. No prior Qigong or martial arts experience is required.
